The New York State Attorney General’s Office has issued subpoenas to officials in Governor Andrew Cuomo’s office to cooperate with his office’s investigation into allegations of multiple sexual assaults against Cuomo, including to Melissa DeRosa, Cuomo’s chief of staff.
In addition to an independent investigation into the allegations by State Attorney General Letitia James’ office, the Judiciary Committee formally launched an impeachment investigation against Gumm, on the 23rd.
According to the New York Post, Ana Liss, a former policy and operations aide to the governor and one of Gumm’s sexual harassment accusers, said investigators from the attorney general’s office had asked her about her attitude toward De Rosa when she worked at the state capitol in 2014 and “they wanted to find out if she had targeted me,” although Liss said she had limited communication with De Rosa at the Time. s communication was limited.
Paul Fishman, one of the state’s attorneys, said it was normal for the attorney general’s office to ask state staff to submit documents, as well as to have meetings, and that “these apply to any investigation without any unrealistic suspicion of the normal process.”
But according to another accuser, Charlotte Bennett, a former assistant to Gammu, Gammu had herself perform “Danny Boy” in front of De Rosa and another aide, and she believes De Rosa saw herself being humiliated but did nothing about it, instead She continued to watch.
In addition to the numerous allegations of sexual harassment and concealment of the number of deaths at the nursing Home, Gammu was also accused of prioritizing the testing of his Family, friends, and senior state officials for the new coronavirus at the height of the outbreak last year.
