House COVID Committee Accuses Cuomo of Witness Tampering in Nursing Home Death Probe

Former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo allegedly attempted to influence a key witness during the investigation into his administration's handling of COVID-19 in nursing homes.

• Cuomo is accused of contacting former aide Jim Malatras multiple times to influence his testimony regarding the nursing home death scandal.
• The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic released evidence of Cuomo's communications with Malatras, which occurred within 48 hours of significant subcommittee actions.
• Malatras testified that Cuomo's messages and calls made him uncomfortable, as they seemed to signal awareness of the subcommittee's investigation and intended to sway his testimony.
• Cuomo's attorney, Rita Glavin, is also accused of using intimidation tactics against the subcommittee's staff, referencing potential disbarment to deter their investigation.
• The subcommittee continues to evaluate all options to hold Cuomo accountable and has recently subpoenaed current NY Governor Kathy Hochul for additional records.
