Cuomo Hands Over Investigations
New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has turned the investigations into some the governor's actions over to another person.
Judge Judith Kaye will head investigations into whether Governor David Paterson illegally accepted World Series tickets or if he had anything to do with trying to keep a domestic violence accusation against one of his top aides from going public.
Cuomo made the announcement during a conference call with reporters this afternoon.
In a prepared statement he said because he's the state's chief law enforcement officer he's required to defend other state employees, including the governor, in numerous litigation so, in the best interests of the state, he's appointed Kaye to take over the investigations.
