Lt. Gov Hochul turns on Cuomo after he’s labeled serial harasser by AG

Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul turned on Gov. Andrew Cuomo Tuesday after a devastating state investigative report substantiated allegations that he sexual harassed female employees in violation of state and federal law.

Hochul, who had declined to weigh in before, would become the acting governor if Cuomo steps down or is tossed from office. “Sexual harassment is unacceptable in any workplace, and certainly not in public service. The Attorney General’s investigation has documented repulsive and unlawful behavior by the Governor towards multiple women,” Hochul said in a statement released to the media.
