Ex-New York Gov. Cuomo will not be charged by Nassau County over alleged sexual misconduct incident

(CNN)Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo will not face charges for an incident involving alleged sexual misconduct that was being investigated by the Nassau County District Attorney's office, the acting district attorney confirmed to CNN.

"Our exhaustive investigation found the allegations credible, deeply troubling, but not criminal under New York law," outgoing Acting Nassau County District Attorney Joyce Smith said in a statement to CNN. "It is important to note that our investigation was limited to alleged conduct at Belmont Racetrack, and prosecutors in other jurisdictions continue to review other allegations of misconduct by Mr. Cuomo."

The incident allegedly took place in 2019 at the Belmont Racetrack in Long Island.

CNN has reached out to a spokesman for Cuomo, a Democrat, for comment.

Multiple other offices have said they are looking into allegations unearthed by investigators, including the Westchester County District Attorney and the Manhattan District Attorney offices. There is also a federal investigation into sexual harassment allegations against Cuomo.

Independent investigators hired by New York Attorney General Letitia James' office released a lengthy report on August 3 that detailed the allegations of 11 women, current and former state employees, and found that Cuomo engaged in "unwelcome and nonconsensual touching," among other allegations.

Nassau County investigators focused on one allegation detailed in the report by an unnamed female state trooper, who was part of the then-governor's protective detail and alleged that at an event in Long Island in September 2019, Cuomo "ran the palm of his left hand across her stomach" from her belly button toward her right hip where she kept her gun.

The trooper told the attorney general's investigators the conduct made her feel "completely violated," according to the August 3 report.
