Golan Cipel claims McGreevey pressured him for sex and ran smear
Golan Cipel, a former security adviser, told reporters through attorney Allen Lowy that New Jersey Governor James E. McGreevey made repeated sexual advances and orchestrated a smear campaign. He said he was abused and intimidated when he rejected the governor, while McGreevey’s camp called the allegations false and described the affair as consensual. The FBI is probing an extortion claim related to McGreevey’s resignation. The broader political fallout drew GOP calls for McGreevey to step down sooner.
