One day after the New York State Attorney General released a report finding Governor Andrew Cuomo violated multiple state and federal laws by sexually harassing 11 women, the governor faces four new criminal probes and more calls to step down.
In addition to the Albany County District Attorney, who says a criminal investigation is ongoing, the DA’s in Westchester and Nassau counties, also as the Manhattan DA, have requested documents from the Attorney General to launch possible criminal probes.
There’s also an ongoing federal investigation into the governor’s handling of nursing home policies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
All major elected officials from President Joe Biden to the leader of the state’s Democratic Party, Jay Jacobs, have now joined calls for Cuomo to resign. An overnight poll from Marist College finds 59% of New Yorkers, including 52% of Democrats, now believe the governor should leave office.
