Gregg Jarrett: Cuomo's nursing home scandal -- what are the crimes that may have been committed?
Fox News
FBI and federal prosecutors are investigating New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s coronavirus task force. So what crimes might have been committed?
If it is true that Cuomo’s top aide Melissa DeRosa admitted to lawmakers that the state misrepresented the number of deaths in nursing homes to avoid having the data "used against us" in a Department of Justice probe, then DeRosa appears to have confessed to a potential obstruction charge. If there were others, including Cuomo, who knowingly participated in concealing the truth this could constitute a conspiracy to obstruct. If Cuomo’s name was Trump, you can bet there would be a cacophony of calls for his criminal indictment for murder. The Cuomo administration has suggested that the reporting of the incorrect death figures occurred before the initial DOJ investigation was launched sometime in mid-2020.More Related News
