Cuomo Administration Hires Criminal Defense Attorney

Andrew Cuomo

Down goes Cuomo!

The administration of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has retained a prominent white-collar defense attorney, The Wall Street Journal is reporting.

Elkan Abramowitz, a one-time federal prosecutor, confirmed to the Journal that he was representing the Executive Chamber—which comprises the governor and his closest aides—in both the sexual harassment and nursing-home matters

Brooklyn federal prosecutors requested data on the number of people who died in New York’s long-term-care facilities as a result of the coronavirus, the Journal has previously reported.

And an investigation is being conducted by State Attorney General Letitia James into whether Cuomo sexually harassed women who previously worked in his administration.
