The Assembly's Impeachment Probe into Former Gov. Cuomo

Documents and evidence from the aborted impeachment investigation into former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo are being reviewed by state Assembly Judiciary Committee members in Albany. 

It comes after State Attorney General Letitia James released hundreds of pages of transcripts and other evidence that were part of her investigation into sexual harassment claims against Cuomo, who resigned in August.

Evidence tied to the impeachment probe includes interviews with 165 witnesses and documents, recordings, messages, memos, transcripts and more. 

Cuomo denies wrongdoing and says the investigations were politically motivated. A separate investigation by the Albany County Sheriff led to Cuomo being charged with forcible touching, accused of groping an aide at the governor’s mansion.

Democratic State Assemblyman Phil Steck of Colonie is on the Judiciary Committee and spoke with WAMC’s Ian Pickus today.
