"When the report was issued I said I believed it was politically motivated and it was, he began. I didn't even know the allegations at that time, right? It was done in a report I didn't even know who the individuals were. Cuomo continued: We then spent five years that report went to five district attorneys all over the state. No one found anything."
"It was then civilly litigated in court, the individual actions, for five years. That came to nothing. I was dropped from the cases. So, nothing came from those allegations. It was a very painful period for me and for my family. I have three young daughters, 30, 30, 28 not that young anymore but it was a very painful experience for my family and I did say if I offended anyone in any way, I didn't mean it. And I learned a lesson."
Andrew Cuomo appeared on a national morning show while running as an independent for New York City mayor after losing the Democratic primary. Co-hosts raised his 2021 resignation amid sexual harassment allegations and noted investigators found claims credible. Cuomo said the investigation was politically motivated, stated he initially did not know the individuals involved, and noted the report went to five district attorneys with no criminal charges. He said civil litigation lasted five years and was dropped, described the period as painful for his family, apologized if he offended anyone, and said he learned a painful lesson.
