The former assistant, who filed a criminal complaint against the governor, says he needs to be held accountable.
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – There’s new testimony from one of Gov. Andrew Cuomo‘s accusers. The former assistant, who filed a criminal complaint against the governor, says he needs to be held accountable. This comes as the Assembly Judiciary Committee discusses Cuomo’s potential impeachment. As CBS2’s political reporter Marcia Kramer reports, in New York political circles, the question is simple and straightforward: Did Brittany Commisso, the no-longer anonymous “executive assistant number one,” put the final nail in the governor’s coffin? What she has to say is startling and stunning. “I know the truth. He knows the truth. I know what happened, and so does he,” Commisso said. Commisso, no longer the anonymous assistant to the governor in Attorney General Letitia James’ damning report charging Cuomo with sexually harassing 11 women, is explaining in painful, and excruciating, detail what she went through. In an exclusive interview with CBS This Morning‘s Jericka Duncan, she said there were hugs and kisses, but then came the groping. The first time on New Year’s Eve, Dec.31,2019, at the governor’s mansion, where she went to help him work on his state of the state speech.
