The Albany County district attorney says his office will not prosecute a groping charge made against former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.), despite finding the allegation credible.
District Attorney David Soares said in a statement on Tuesday that his office determined it could not make its case in a trial.
“While we found the complainant in this case cooperative and credible, after review of all the available evidence we have concluded that we cannot meet our burden at trial,” Soares said in a statement. “As such we have notified the Court that we are declining to prosecute this matter and requesting the charges filed by the Albany County Sheriff be dismissed.”
