Cuomo Accuser Charlotte Bennett Says Governor Is 'Absolutely' Gaslighting Her

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Charlotte Bennett, one of several women who has accused Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment, said Tuesday that the New York governor should face impeachment if he refuses to resign. Speaking with CBS News’ Norah O’Donnell, Bennett, a former aide of Cuomo’s, said “the governor broke federal and state law when he sexually harassed me and current and former staffers.” “If he’s not willing to step down, then we have a responsibility to act and impeach him,” she said. “The governor broke federal and state law when he sexually harassed me and current and former staffers…if he’s not willing to step down, then we have a responsibility to act and impeach him,” says former Cuomo aide Charlotte Bennett in an exclusive interview with @NorahODonnell. pic.twitter.com/MxkEhAsjzO — CBS Evening News August 3, 2021 James said Tuesday that Cuomo had “sexually harassed current and former New York State employees by engaging in unwelcome and non-consensual touching and making numerous offensive comments of a suggestive and sexual nature that created a hostile work environment for women.” Bennett, who was the governor’s executive assistant and health policy adviser, has said the governor made inappropriate comments to her on several occasions. He allegedly also told her he was lonely and was comfortable with the idea of dating “anyone over 22.” Cuomo, 63, has refuted Bennett’s claims and the findings in James’ report, saying “the facts are much different than what has been portrayed” and that he “never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances.” During a Tuesday press conference, he addressed Bennett’s allegations directly and said he’d meant only to empathize with her during their conversation last June.
