Prosecutors in Manhattan said New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo didn’t break the law when his administration misled the public about the amount of COVID-19 deaths linked to nursing homes, according to the former governor’s attorney on Monday.

Elkan Abramowitz, Cuomo’s attorney, issued a statement to news outlets saying the Democrat was told on Monday by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office that it had completed an investigation and wouldn’t bring charges against him.
