Cuomo might want to shift his concern to staying out of jail.
The assistant, who is unnamed, described to the attorney general’s office an incident last November in which Cuomo pulled her in for a hug, slid his hand up her blouse, and “cupped” her breast over her bra. “I have to tell you it was — in the moment I was in such shock that I could just tell you that I just remember looking down and seeing his hand,” the assistant told investigators.
The assistant also described an incident in December 2019 when Cuomo “moved his hand to grab her butt cheek and began to rub it” while the two were taking a selfie, and that the rubbing lasted at least five seconds. The report notes that the assistant “was shaking so much during this interaction that her initial selfies with the Governor were very blurry.”
Cuomo has repeatedly denied all allegations of sexual misconduct. “I never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances,” he said on Tuesday following the release of the report. The criminal complaint filed on Friday isn’t the first sign Cuomo could be in legal jeopardy. Prosecutors in Albany, Manhattan, and Westchester Counties have all announced they are requesting evidence from the attorney general’s office as they consider whether to launch their own investigations. James said on Tuesday that the conduct detailed in the report was “in violation of both federal and state law.
