Gov. Andrew Cuomo May Face Probe For Alleged Misuse Of State Resources To Develop His Book
HuffPost
A Cuomo senior adviser calls the allegations "patently absurd."
New York’s attorney general has been asked to investigate possible misuse of public resources by Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) during the development and promotion of his book about the COVID-19 pandemic. State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli sent a letter to Attorney General Letitia James last week to officially request the probe. Such a request is required before James can launch a criminal investigation. DiNapoli’s letter didn’t detail suspicions about Cuomo’s book — American Crisis: Leadership Lessons From the COVID-19 — which was published last October, but it did ask James to investigate any possible offenses linked to the use of state “property, services or resources” for personal purposes by the Executive Chambers. That would include any “drafting, editing, sale and promotion” of the book and “any related financial or business transaction,” the letter stated.
