Scott Stringer Faces 2nd Sexual Misconduct Accusation: Report

NEW YORK CITY — A second woman accused comptroller and mayoral candidate Scott Stringer of decades-old sexual misconduct, according to the New York Times.

The accusation comes from a woman named Teresa Logan, who told the Times she worked as a waitress and bartender for Stringer at his Uptown Local bar on the Upper West Side in the 1990s.

She told the Times that Stringer once groped her as she carried trays in the bar and made unwanted sexual advances, including kissing and groping, outside it at least twice.

Stringer issued a statement to the Times that stated he had no memory of Logan.

“If, in fact, I met Ms. Logan, and ever did anything to make her uncomfortable, I am sorry,” he told the Times. “Uptown Local was a long-ago chapter in my life from the early 1990s and it was all a bit of a mess.”

Stringer's campaign took a serious hit more than a month ago when another woman — Jean Kim — said he harassed and groped her during a 2001 campaign.

Many of Stringer's progressive backers peeled away, but the exodus slowed as Kim's accusation faced scrutiny, particularly in a story published by The Intercept.

Logan's new accusation involves a period of time starting 1992, when she was 18 and Stringer was 32, according to the Times. Two people, including Logan's sister, told the Times she complained at that time about Stringer's behavior, according to the report.
