NEW YORK (AP) — New York Attorney General Letitia James is dismissing criticism from former Gov. Andrew Cuomo of the bombshell report from her office that detailed sexual harassment allegations against him. She told a group of civic and business leaders in New York City on Wednesday that the former governor has “never taken responsibility for his own conduct.” James defended the 165-page report her office released in August that found Cuomo sexually harassed at least 11 women and led the Democrat to resign. Cuomo has emphatically denied intentionally mistreating women and has cast the pressure on him to resign as politically motivated.
