Lawyer for one of the Cornell 7 calls for Letitia James to step down from investigation
Attorney Andrew Miltenberg has called for New York Attorney General Letitia James to recuse herself from the investigation into the 'Cornell 7' sexual assault case. This request follows James's appointment as special prosecutor and her previous social media post expressing support for the accuser, which critics argue compromises her impartiality. James has dismissed concerns about her objectivity, stating that the investigation will be guided strictly by the facts and the law.
