Andrew Cuomo "broke the law" and must be held accountable, a former executive assistant to the Democratic governor said in her first public comments since accusing him of sexual assault. Brittany Commisso was identified as "Executive Assistant #1" in the explosive report last week by state Attorney General Letitia James accusing Cuomo of sexually harassing 11 women, including current and former state employees, from 2013 to 2020. Rita Glavin, an attorney for the governor, said Friday that emails allegedly undermining Commisso’s story were not included in James' investigation. Fabien Levy, a spokesman of the state attorney general, criticized Glavin’s comments as "unfortunate." "After multiple women made accusations that Governor Cuomo sexually harassed them, the governor, himself, requested that Attorney General James oversee an independent investigation," Levy said in a statement.
