Preet Bharara Takes On New York Governor
Asked several times by Lehrer if he could rule out investigating Cuomo's office, the prosecutor said: "I'm not going to prejudge what we'll be looking at."
Meanwhile, the governor downplayed criticism of his decision to shutter the commission saying "It was created to spur the legislation."
"I said repeatedly when the legislation was passed the commission would be disbanded," he was quoted him as saying by Newsday at a Rochester news conference at about the same time Bharara was on the radio.
Cuomo and legislators in closed-door negotiations agreed to enact some election law changes and toughen bribery statutes.
In exchange, the governor terminated the commission that was originally slated to work through the end of this year.
According to Newsday Bharara's investigations of state legislators helped spark, in part,the creation of the commission last year.
In letters to the commission, Bharara asked it to "preserve all documents that may be under your control" -- including emails.
"We're going to look at the documents," Bharara was quoted as saying in an interview. "We're going to see what the facts are, and if there are questions that are appropriate to ask... My office will ask those questions."
