紐約州長遇上桃色風暴

紐約州檢察長今天發佈正式調查報告， 確定州長柯蒙涉嫌性侵犯 ，此項調查報告可能會終止州長的政治生命。

経過近一個月之調查， 紐約檢討訪問了一百七七十九個証人， 閱讀過七萬四千份文件，最後確認他對十一個婦女性侵，其中包括一名紐約州女警官，並且對一名出來作証的女人進行報復。

負責調查的檢察官金冏在文件中結論， 這非單一事件， 而是整個事件都有相關的証據。

過去一個月來，柯蒙州長一直辯稱他的調查有政治動機，有人想搶走他州長位職，他還堅稱，州長是人民選出來，而不是政客來決定。

我們要非常遺憾地指出，柯蒙州長之性侵事件無疑是對民主黨陣營的重大打擊， 纽约州是美國最重要的一州， 從美國建國兩百多年來， 也是民主黨長期執政， 這次的調查報告可能是柯蒙在政途上的最後一程 ，真是可惜。

Is This The End Of Cuomo’s Political Future?

The New York Attorney General’s office issued a statement saying that, “We, the investigators appointed to conduct an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment by Governor Andrew Cuomo conclude that the Governor engaged in conduct constituting sexual harassment under federal and New York state law.”

This pronouncement came after a months long investigation that concluded interviews with 179 people and the review of 74,000 documents. The report found Cuomo harassed 11 women including a state employee and a state trooper.

Cuomo said he was totally innocent and stated that he never touched anyone inappropriately or made any inappropriate sexual advances. He also painted the investigation as a political endeavor by someone wanting to take over his job.

This is a big loss for the Democratic Party in many ways. New York state is the most important state in America. Cuomo was considered a rising star in politics, but now is facing the end of his career in the political world.
