Could Andrew Cuomo pardon himself before leaving office?
Fox News
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday announced his resignation effective in two weeks, following a damning sexual harassment investigation by the state attorney general.
Brittany Commisso, who was identified as "Executive Assistant #1" in James’ report, testified that Cuomo grabbed her butt while they took a selfie in the executive mansion in 2019 and that in 2020 he reached under her blouse and grabbed her breast. She came forward for the first time publicly in a joint interview Monday with "CBS This Morning" and the Albany Times Union, just days after she became the first of Cuomo's accusers to file a criminal complaint against him. Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple said over the weekend that his office was investigating Commisso's complaint and that it could lead to criminal charges. Apple told the Times Union on Tuesday that Cuomo's resignation, effective in two weeks, would not impact the investigation.More Related News
