From WTEN.com:
In recusing himself after two weeks of investigating Gov. David Paterson, Attorney General Andrew Cuomo said there was no “technical conflict” but described the probe thus far as preliminary and bowed to pressure that included sinking approval ratings for the man widely expected to run for governor.
Cuomo named Judith Kaye on Thursday as the independent counsel to lead the investigation into whether Paterson illegally took World Series tickets or had improper contact with a woman who accused a governor’s aide of domestic violence. She will work with the Cuomo’s Public Integrity Unit.
