Byung J. Pak told congressional investigators on Wednesday that he resigned abruptly as a U.S. attorney in Atlanta after he was warned President Donald Trump intended to fire him for refusing to say that voter fraud had been found in Georgia.
Pak delivered three hours of closed-door testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee, according to the New York Times.
A source familiar with his testimony said Pak explained how he had done his best 'to be thoughtful and consistent, and to provide justice for my fellow citizens in a fair, effective and efficient manner.'
His comments go some way to clearing up the mystery behind his sudden departure on Jan 4, and come amid a slew of reports about how Trump sought to pressure officials in Georgia and at the Department of Justice in Washington over the results of the election.
