Danielle Sassoon resigned when the case was dropped.
Here’s a bit about her:
As an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the district, she secured prominent convictions against sex trafficker Lawrence V. Ray and fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried.
From July 2012 to August 2013, she clerked for Justice Antonin Scalia of the U.S. Supreme Court. She then worked as a litigation associate at the law firm Kirkland & Ellis in its New York City office. In the spring term of 2016 she co-taught a Supreme Court seminar as an adjunct professor at New York University Law School.
Sassoon is a member of the conservative Federalist Society, and is a registered Republican.
