A 6th woman has come forward and leveled allegations of harassment or inappropriate conduct against Gov Cuomo, The Times Union is reporting. The woman, reportedly a member of the Governors Executive Staff, told a supervisor in the Executive Chamber recently that the governor inappropriately touched her last year during an encounter at the governor’s mansion. Last week, Cuomo said he “now understand(s) that I acted in a way that made people feel uncomfortable. It was unintentional and I truly and deeply apologize for it.

NYC Mayoral Candidate and current Brooklyn Boro President Eric Adams visited a Boro Park Yeshiva this week. Adams made the visit to get a first-hand look at the unnamed institution which was one of those on a “list” subject to investigation over education standards. “I was really impressed by what I saw,” Adams told the Forward on Monday night. “Watching those children understand grammar, understand English, saying they like writing and reading, it was amazing.” The 60-year-old, who has served as borough president since 2013, spent 22 years in the NYPD, helping establish 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement Who Care, to improve relations between the black community and police. He then went on to be a well-known State Senator.

YWN regrets to inform you of the Petira of R’ Moshe Dovid Kish Z”L, a longtime Boro Park Hatzolah Paramedic. The Niftar, known in Hatzolah as “B-219”, suffered from an illness the past 10 years. Despite his Yesurim, he continued responding to emergencies and saving lives until he was physically unable to do so any longer. Sadly, he was Niftar on Tuesday morning. He leaves behind a wife and eight children, four of whom are unmarried, his parents, and his hundreds of grieving friends in Hatzolah. The Levaya will be held on Tuesday at Yeshiva Chasan Sofer, 1876 50th Street in Boro Park. The Kevura will be held in the Monsey Bais Hachayim, next to his brother.

Disciplinary records of New York City police officers are now a matter of public record — but critics say officials are still keeping the vast majority of misconduct hidden. The NYPD, acting Monday on a recent appeals court decision, posted a long-awaited online database of officer disciplinary histories, as well as decisions from the department’s internal disciplinary hearing process. The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals last month lifted a temporary restraining order that paused the release of disciplinary records while public safety unions sued to block the city from posting them online. The lawsuit, filed after state lawmakers last June reversed a law that kept disciplinary records secret for decades, is still pending.

Two men wanted in the deadly riot at the Capitol were arrested over the weekend, including one who reportedly served as a bodyguard to former President Donald Trump’s longtime political confidant Roger Stone, federal authorities said Monday. Roberto Minuta breached the Capitol grounds and “aggressively berated and taunted U.S. Capitol police officers” during the Jan. 6 insurrection, the FBI said in court papers. Minuta, 36, of Hackettstown, New Jersey, had been “equipped with military-style attire and gear, including apparel emblazoned with a crest related to the Oath Keepers,” the FBI said, referring to the far-right antigovernment militia. The New York Times identified Minuta as one of six people who provided security to Stone in the hours before the assault on the Capitol.

Republican state lawmakers announced an impeachment resolution against Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday afternoon. The resolution was announced by Assembly Republican Leader Will Barclay and other members of the Assembly Republican Conference. Barclay said the Republican conference feels it’s time to move forward on impeachment in the face of multiple accusations of harassment against the governor and a federal investigation into the state’s undercounting of nursing home deaths. The resolution would have to be supported by the Democratic Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie to come to a vote. If passed by the Assembly, it would then go to the State Senate.

It’s sleepy by Donald Trump’s standards, but the former president’s century-old estate in New York’s Westchester County could end up being one of his bigger legal nightmares. Seven Springs, a 213-acre swath of nature surrounding a Georgian-style mansion, is a subject of two state investigations: a criminal probe by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. and a civil inquiry by New York Attorney General Letitia James. Both investigations focus on whether Trump manipulated the property’s value to reap greater tax benefits from an environmental conservation arrangement he made at the end of 2015, while running for president.

Governor Andrew Cuomo reiterated Sunday that he’s not going to resign because of allegations. “There are some legislators who suggest I resign,” Cuomo said. “I’m not going to resign because of allegations.” The governor says the premise of resigning because of allegations is actually “undemocratic.” “The system is based on due process and the credibility of the allegation,” Cuomo said. Cuomo noted Sen. Schumer and the White House have signaled a willingness to wait for the outcome of an investigation overseen by the state attorney general. “There is no way I resign,” he said. “Let’s do the attorney general, let’s get the findings and go from there.” Cuomo said he would sign the bill that curbs his emergency pandemic authority.
