Alleged Sex Pest Andrew Cuomo Hires Lawyer Who Defended Harvey Weinstein, Woody Allen
2021-03-03
[FREEBEACON] Embattled governor Andrew Cuomo (D., N.Y.) has retained the services of a high-powered criminal defense attorney who defended Harvey Weinstein and Woody Allen against allegations of sexual assault.

Elkan Abramowitz, a former federal prosecutor with close ties to Manhattan district attorney Cy Vance, will serve as legal counsel to the governor and his top aides, the Wall Street Journal reported Monday.

#9  I don’t doubt the honourable governor of New York did exactly what he is accused of, and worse. And if that is what takes him down, I’m as happy as the FBI was when going after mobsters for not paying income tax. It seems to me the key is to get him out of power — murdering over 13,000 or so elderly retirement home residents is only a small portion of the lives his decisions ended or ruined since Covid was discovered, but he’ll never be tried for that, either.

#5  I’m sorry, Harris is where she is because she banged her way to the top. Those women who are picking on quomo must not have been good enough to rise to the “vice” presidency.

#4  All these #MeToo types are squirrels. The media is gleefully running after them in hopes that we'll forget the real scandal, the crime, in which Cuomo sent Covid-19 patients back to their nursing homes to infect their fellow nursing home residents. Other blue governors did the same. Any real journalist worth his or her salt would be busy trying to connect those dots instead of chasing squirrels. All the big-wig Democrats are throwing Cuomo under the bus for his sexual peccadillos but they've been ignoring the nursing home crime for months, almost a year now. Why? Doesn't anybody want to know? It stinks.

#3  /\ Eliminating any possible competition for Harris would be my guess. Even the Hildebeest has piled on.

#2  It seems the Dems are trying to deep-six Cuomo.

#1  ... On the other hand, keep in mind that Mr. Abramowitz is only batting .500 in those cases.

And honestly, Woody's escaped because he's A)85 years old, B) a helluva lot better liked than Weinstein was and C), Ms. Farrow comes across as a bit unsympathetic. Cuomo doesn't have any of that going for him.
