A ninth woman has stepped forward to accuse New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual misconduct.
The accuser, 55-year-old Sherry Vill, said Cuomo grabbed her face and kissed her cheeks in front of her home in 2017.

“I know the difference between an innocent gesture and a sexual one,” Vill said during a virtual press conference according to the Democrat & Chronicle. “I never felt as uncomfortable as I did the day Governor Cuomo came to my house. His actions were very overly sexual, highly inappropriate and disrespectful to me and my family.”
Vill was married at the time of the alleged incident, her attorney Gloria Allred said. Cuomo visited Vill’s home in Greece, N.Y., to survey flood damage, The Wall Street Journal’s Jimmy Vielkind reported.
“She has decided to break her silence and overcome her fear,” Allred said according to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s Mary Margaret Olohan.
