Criminal charges filed against CuomoA criminal complaint against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has been filed with the Albany Sheriff's Office by a staffer who is among the 11 whose sexual harassment allegations against the embattled Democrat were detailed in the state attorney general's report released earlier this week.

The complaint was confirmed to CNN by an attorney representing the anonymous accuser and a second source with direct knowledge. Albany County Undersheriff William Rice confirmed to CNN that a criminal complaint was filed by an unnamed accuser Thursday, but he did not go into details about the complaint.
It's the first known criminal report filed against the governor regarding allegations of sexual misconduct. The governor's office had notified Albany Police of the allegation several months ago.
