One of Cuomo's 11 accusers is set to speak out in a televised interview: 'What he did to me was a crime'

• Brittany Commisso, an accuser of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, is set to speak out in a televised interview.
• In a preview of the interview released Sunday, Commisso says Cuomo "broke the law."
• The interview, which was done with CBS News and the Albany Times Union, is set to be aired on Monday.

One of the 11 women who accused New York Governor Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment is set to speak out in an interview with CBS News and the Albany Times Union, which will be televised on Monday.

"What he did to me was a crime. He broke the law," said Brittany Commisso, one of the women referenced in the 165-page investigative report released last week by New York Attorney General Letitia James which unearthed allegations of sexual harassment that Cuomo is alleged to have committed.

"The governor needs to be held accountable," Commisso said in an excerpt of the interview, which was broadcast Sunday morning on "Face the Nation."

Commisso was previously referenced as "Executive Assistant #1" in the attorney general's report. She identified herself publicly after becoming the first of Cuomo's accusers to file a criminal complaint against the Democratic governor.

Commisso previously told investigators that Cuomo had groped her breast and inappropriately touched her backside while she took a photograph.

On Saturday, Craig Apple, the Albany County sheriff, confirmed the existence of the complaint against Cuomo and said that his office had commenced an investigation into the claims. He committed to a "very comprehensive investigation."

"I'm not going to rush it because of who he is and I'm not going to delay it because of who he is," Apple added, referring to Cuomo.

Representatives for Cuomo's office did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Cuomo has remained defiant in the face of calls for his resignation

Since the findings of the attorney general's report were made public last week, Cuomo has faced widespread calls to relinquish his role.

President Joe Biden last week said Cuomo should resign over the findings. He was joined by a chorus of other high-profile lawmakers, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.

As many as seven in 10 New York state voters agree that Cuomo ought to resign, and more than half (55%) believe he should be charged with a crime, according to a poll from Quinnipiac University released on Friday.

Meanwhile, Cuomo has refused to step down and, in a statement on video last week, he denied that he had behaved inappropriately.

"I never touched anyone inappropriately or made inappropriate sexual advances," Cuomo said, according to a transcript of the August 3 remarks posted to the New York state website. "I have lived my entire adult life in public view. That is just not who I am and that's not who I have ever been."
