AG Report Alleges Cuomo Sexually Harassed Numerous Women

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is not resigning after a report by the state attorney general shows Cuomo sexually harassed women following a lengthy investigation.

The report by the attorney general accuses Governor Cuomo of sexually harassing state employees including a young female state trooper and creating a sexually hostile work environment. Former U.S. Attorney Joon Kim is one of the investigators.

“Some suffered through unwanted touching and grabbing of their most intimate body parts. Others suffered through repeated offensive sexually suggestive or gender based comments.”

Governor Cuomo denies the allegations.

“I never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances.”

Numerous elected officials are calling on him to resign or be impeached if refuses to leave office. He does not face criminal charges from the AG’s probe but officials say it could turn into a criminal matter.
