Cuomo sued by New York trooper who claims he sexually harassed her

Politico

ALBANY, N.Y. — Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo was not charged criminally in cases where he was found in a state investigation to have sexually harassed women, including female aides. But he was certain to face civil lawsuits.

The first one came late Thursday: A state trooper on his security detail who related sexual harassment claims against Cuomo in Attorney General Letitia James’ report last year filed a civil suit in Manhattan federal court against the former governor, his former top aide Melissa DeRosa and New York State Police.

The woman, known as Trooper 1 in the lawsuit and in the AG investigation, “is one of the Governor’s victims,” the suit contends.

The suit relays many of the findings in the report by James that led to Cuomo’s resignation last August. The report found Cuomo sexually harassed 11 women over several years, including several aides.
