Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor whom Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis hired to pursue her case against former President Donald Trump, officially resigned from the case on Friday after Judge Scott McAfee indicated that either he or Willis must do so.

Willis indicted Trump and 18 co-defendants in August of 2023 over his efforts to challenge the 2020 election results in Georgia,  bringing charges under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) Act.
