Former New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer is taking legal action against a woman who accused him of sexual assault.
A veteran New York City politician filed a defamation lawsuit Monday against a woman who accused him of sexual misconduct, claiming the decades-old allegation was false and derailed his campaign for mayor.
At the time Kim made her accusation, Stringer was among the leaders in the crowded field seeking the Democratic nomination to succeed then-Mayor Bill de Blasio. Stringer, 62, says in his lawsuit that he and Kim had an on-and-off consensual relationship in 2001 and that her accusations of assault and unwanted groping are false and defamatory.
