Cuomo accused of harassment again

A second former aide said she was sexually harassed by New York governor Andrew Cuomo, who responded with a statement on Saturday saying he never made advances toward her and never intended to be inappropriate. Charlotte Bennett, a health policy adviser in the Democratic governor’s administration until November, told The New York Times Cuomo asked her inappropriate questions about her sex life, including whether she ever had sex with older men. Another former aide, Lindsey Boylan, a former deputy secretary for economic development and special adviser to the governor, recently accused Cuomo of subjecting her to an unwanted kiss and inappropriate comments. Cuomo denied the allegations. Cuomo’s office has asked the state attorney general and the chief judge of the Court of Appeals to choose a lawyer to conduct an independent review of the allegations.
