NY authorities speak after Andrew Cuomo charged with misdemeanour sex crime | LIVE

Albany County Sheriff Craig D. Apple Sr. is expected to hold a news conference Friday after former Andrew Cuomo was charged with forcible touching, a misdemeanour sex crime.

The charge was announced on Thursday by the New York state courts. A criminal complaint charged Cuomo with a Class A misdemeanour sex offence in Albany.

According to a copy of the complaint posted online by a local news outlet, Cuomo engaged in the offence of "forcible touching" on Dec. 7, 2020, at the governor's executive mansion by placing "his hand under the blouse shirt of the victim … and onto her intimate body part." The complaint goes on to say that Cuomo groped the woman's breast "for purposes of degrading and gratifying his sexual desires." The name of the alleged victim has not been released.
