Nathan Wade, who played a key role in the previous President Trump's criminal case in Georgia, stepped down on Friday following a Georgia judge's ruling that either he or Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) needed to resign due to a conflict of interest.

"I am offering my resignation in the interest of democracy, in dedication to the American public, and to expedite the progress of this case," Wade stated.
