Lindsey Boylan calls NY Gov. Cuomo 'a monster' after fellow accuser Charlotte Bennett interview

Lindsey Boylan slammed her former boss and alleged sexual harasser New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo as "a monster" following a televised interview Thursday featuring another former aide who has accused him of sexual misconduct.

"Nothing Charlotte Bennett experienced was her fault," Boylan tweeted minutes after fellow accuser Charlotte Bennett’s interview aired on CBS News. "@NYGovCuomo is a monster and I do not forgive him or his team who made this abuse and grooming in service of abuse possible."

Bennett, 25, during an interview on "CBS Evening News" with Norah O’Donnell, said she believed the 63-year-old governor was propositioning her for sex in his office, dropped hints that he was "fine" with her age and that the encounter made her "deeply uncomfortable."

"I thought, he’s trying to sleep with me, the governor is trying to sleep with me," she told O’Donnell. "And I am deeply uncomfortable, and I have to get out of this room as soon as possible."

New York Sen. Andrea Stewart-Cousins, the Democratic majority leader of the state Senate told state media she is "so, so disappointed."

"I applaud women who have been through this for coming forward," she told the Albany-based New York State of Politics.

"Any further people coming forward, I would think it would be time for him to resign," she said. "Quite honestly, I am so, so disappointed that here we are in 2021 and we are having these conversations on the heels of #MeToo."
