Investigators grilled New York Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo for 11 hours last month as they look into allegations of misconduct both in the workplace and at the governor’s mansion, according to reports.

The interviews under oath were led by former prosecutor Joon Kim, an employment lawyer, and got contentious at times, with Cuomo questioning Kim’s “fairness and independence,” The New York Times reported.

The investigation is nearly complete and a report to New York Democrat Attorney General Letitia James is expected in August, sources told The Wall Street Journal. That report will also be reviewed by New York state legislators in their investigations.

Cuomo has rebuked the political attack as he potentially seeks another term as governor, which could include a challenge from James herself, according to the reports.

The interview session came at Cuomo’s Manhattan office July 17 and included follow-up interviews with at least two of his accusers, sources told the Journal.
