Cuomo created 'a total cluster f‐k' in hunt for escaped killers
Cuomo's surprise arrival at a still-unfolding escape scene a week ago Saturday generated considerable national publicity for the governor, but distracted investigators at a time when the full facts of the escape were not yet known, the sources said."Cuomo actually disrupted the early search efforts when he arrived at the 'command center' on Saturday and refused to enter the room until everyone was removed except state employees,'' said a longtime law enforcement figure who has regular contact with many involved in the search effort. "Cuomo's aides came in and threw out the US marshal, the sheriff [David Favro, like Cuomo a Democrat] and others who were there to help coordinate the search effort. "And they did it without even saying 'Thanks for your help' or such, just, 'Get out so his highness can enter.' "The State Police are trying to make sure that they're the ones to catch these guys, that they get all the credit, and as a result, they're not making full use of the assets that are available to them,'' the source continued. Several sources said they believe Cuomo had subsequently given orders that he be allowed to rush to the Dannemora area to take part in any press conference if the fugitives are caught.
