Gov. Andrew Cuomo used campaign cash to pay nearly $285,000 in bills from the lawyer defending him against sexual harassment allegations, according to documents filed Friday — despite publicly claiming he wasn’t doing so last month.
Although Cuomo told reporters on June 2 that he wasn’t spending political donations on his legal fees “at this time,” his campaign paid $173,098 to former US Justice Department official Rita Glavin that very same day, according to an official filing with the state Board of Elections.
