The damning report released by the New York attorney general which forced the resignation of state governor Andrew Cuomo detailed “credible” allegations of sexual harassment against him by 11 women. What have they said, and how has he responded?Commisso, named in the attorney general’s report as “Executive Assistant #1,” alleged that Cuomo touched her inappropriately by grabbing her behind as they posed for a photo, and reaching under her blouse and grabbing her breast.

In a video response to the attorney general’s report, Cuomo alluded to Commisso’s complaint, noting that one of the allegations against him was from a woman who claimed he groped her in his home office.The attorney general’s report also said that Cuomo denied having grabbed Commisso’s behind or her breast, and quoted him as saying: “I would have to lose my mind to do such a thing.

In his resignation statement, he said: “I don’t recall doing it, but if she said I did it, I believe her.”“I did not mean any sexual connotation. I did not mean any intimacy by it. I just wasn’t thinking,” he said. “But it was also insensitive. It was embarrassing to her, and it was disrespectful … I want to personally apologize to her and her family.”The attorney general’s report summarized Cuomo’s interactions with Bennett, another executive assistant, saying that he asked her about “her preferences in romantic or sexual relationships, her history as a sexual assault survivor, and his own romantic relationship status and preferences.
