Cuomo reportedly claimed iPhone tech issues to get close to two ‘sex-harass’ accusers

Andrew Cuomo used iPhone troubleshooting excuses to get close to two of the women accusing him of sexual harassment and misconduct, a report said Sunday.

Cuomo, 63, has been accused in recent weeks of inappropriate behavior or remarks by seven women, five of them current or former staffers including Charlotte Bennett and a publicly-unidentified woman alleging that the governor reached under her blouse and groped her.

Both of those women say they found themselves summoned into one-on-one situations with the governor after he asked for help resolving similar technical issues with his smartphone, according to an Albany Times Union report published Sunday.

Just one day after Cuomo allegedly asked Bennett, 25, a series of probing questions about her personal life — including whether she’d ever had a relationship with an older man — she was asked to come to his private office inside that state Capitol building.

Once they were alone, Cuomo asked Bennett for help navigating from his phone’s “settings” app to its “notes” app, despite the governor’s having had the device for several months, Jessica Westerman, Bennett’s attorney, told The Times Union.

Bennett, who no longer works for the governor, has not alleged that Cuomo touched her inappropriately during the June 2020 encounter, but felt uncomfortable in light of the questions he had asked the day prior.

About five months later, Cuomo again claimed a problem with his iPhone’s “notes” app in summoning another woman to his private quarters in the Executive Mansion, the Times Union has reported.

As she was helping him, Cuomo allegedly reached under her blouse and touched her breasts, a person briefed on that woman’s account told the outlet.

That alleged run-in has been referred to Albany police

Interesting how many male harassers are totally fugly (both inside and outside). And his professional eddikashun sooo matches his witless, incompetant, and totally without morals governership. Oh well, he is a DemocRAT and New York appears to be almost as sick as Massachusetts when it comes to electing sex maniac low achievement lawyer trained losers.

Interesting how many are liberals who've loudly denounced all men for being sexist and pretended to be champions of feminism. At this point, it can pretty much be taken for granted - if you see a dude caping and white-knighting for feminists, it's because he himself is a creep who harasses women and is trying to compensate by blaming every other man for the things he himself does.

Were their any reports made? It just says “a person briefed on that woman’s account told the outlet.”

I’ll bet the “tech issue” was that he could not get the iPhone out of his underwear.

Matt Lauer took the cake here. Totally different from his TV persona and even had a remote for locking his office door.

The Governor in Blazing Saddles.

But his ladies were paid to be his ladies and were just a high paid HOs. It was a mutually beneficial financial arrangement, but she was not vice president of the United States of America!

ps
Mel Brooks was a brilliant writer and director and actor. In this insanity of political correctness, "Blazing Saddles" could not be done today.

"The sheriff is a N---- then church bells ringing." Oddly the movie pointed out the insanity of discrimination. It could not be made today.
