Sam Bankman-Fried's upcoming trial on fraud charges marks a major test for a broader crackdown on white collar crime led by Manhattan's top federal prosecutor: Damian Williams.
Upon taking office in late 2021 as the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Williams said "rooting out corruption in our financial markets" would be one of his top priorities — a familiar role for an office known as the main enforcer on Wall Street.
The cases Williams, 43, has brought so far show he has been a "steward" of the SDNY's longstanding priorities, said Kan Nawaday, who overlapped with Williams at the office. "This office has brought a number of significant cases in this space," Williams said in July in announcing charges against Alex Mashinsky, another crypto executive. "The Southern District of New York has historically been at the forefront of enforcement in any new area."
Last week, his office charged New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez with bribery. Williams made the announcement, showing reporters photos of gold bars and stacks of cash found at the senator's home. Menendez pleaded not guilty. Joshua Naftalis, who worked alongside Williams on fraud cases at SDNY, said the speed with which the charges were filed sent a "quick, emphatic message" to crypto markets.
