Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti likely knew or should have known about sexual misconduct by a senior aide, even though he claimed he did not, according to a report issued on May 10 by investigators working for Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa).

Garcetti, who is President Joe Biden’s nominee to be U.S. Ambassador to India, told a Senate Foreign Relations Committee confirmation hearing in December that he was unaware of numerous serious sexual harassment allegations against Rick Jacobs, his former deputy chief of staff.
