New York State on Friday agreed to pay $450,000 to Brittany Commisso, a former aide to Andrew Cuomo who accused him of groping and subjecting her to persistent sexual harassment on the job at the governor’s office.
Lawyers for Commisso called the settlement with Gov. Kathy Hochul’s office “a complete vindication” of her claims against Cuomo, leveled in a November 2023 suit filed under the Adult Survivors Act.
“[Just] as the repeated findings made by the Attorney General, the State Assembly and the US Department of Justice were. Those three independent investigations all found that Cuomo subjected Ms. Commisso to unwanted sexual harassment and groping when she worked for him as an assistant,” Mariann Wang and Kevin Mintzer said in a joint statement.
“Ms. Commisso is proud to have reported the truth and vindicated her rights in court, and likewise glad to be able to move forward with her life.”

New York State taxpayer money at work.
Very nice. Coomo feels chicks up and the taxpayers pick up the tab. Ah, well. They voted for him....
Why now?
Most Dems want Mamdani to win.
New York State? American taxpayers pay for these POS politicians. Let’s work harder fellow slaves. Perhaps our great grandchildren will be unchained from debt slavery. Us? Not a chance.
$450k for sexual harassment? NY taxpayers got off easy.
NY, just like CA, will come crying to the rest of the country when they go broke again.
Arrivederci, Bella!
WTH is that rock on her left hand, if they are not married or engaged? I agree, she is clearly an operator, taking advantage, but he’s a pig. But if Cuomo had followed the sensible “Mike Pence Rule”, none of this would have happened, and he would still be governor.
It’s unfair to blame the man if the woman seduces him.
See that picture. That tells me that she’s the instigator. But lying under oath....he said, she said...makes big bucks. Ask E. Jean Carroll how it works. Hochul’s edict even did away with the statute of limitations...’FOR ONE YEAR”. Carroll filed the day after Hochul’s law went into effect
ARE SUCH SETTLEMENT SUBJECT TO INCOME TAXES???
He has tittie piercings.hes a weirdo.
Money that you get from ANY lawsuit is NOT subject to oncome tax.
Cuomo is a weirdo and a creep, without a shadow of a doubt, but Brittany Commisso is an opportunist.
I agree, sort of, but I would still stick with the Mike Pence Rule out of a sense of self-protection.
You realize that you're talking about Politicians like Bill Clinton and JFK?
Besides I prefer Donald Trump (on his 3rd marriage) over Mike Pence.
Or do you prefer Mike Pence because he's a "puritian"?
