Andrew Cuomo Sexual-Misconduct Accuser Suggests His Allies Tried to Meddle in Her Divorce

  • Brittany Commisso, one of the women accusing ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual misconduct, suggested to investigators that allies of the disgraced politician tried to meddle in her divorce proceedings in a brazen attempt to discredit her, according to disturbing new transcripts released this week.
  • Commisso — whose groping allegation led to a misdemeanor criminal complaint being filed against the former governor last month — implied that her estranged husband may have been manipulated by Cuomo insiders into erroneously believing she and Cuomo had a consensual affair.
  • The 33-year-old made the comments in a May 17 deposition, telling outside lawyers probing the allegations against Cuomo that one of his aides was prying into her personal life in a possible attempt to get her husband to do the governor’s “dirty work” and claim adultery in their divorce.
