The woman accusing Police Commissioner Ray Kelly's son Greg of rape has told police she became pregnant from their October sexual encounter and subsequently aborted the baby, sources told The Post today.
The woman filed an official complaint Tuesday against the Greg Kelly, claiming the co-host of Fox 5’s “Good Day New York” attacked her last October, the sources said. It was during that interview with detectives that she claimed she had aborted the pregnancy that resulted from her liaison with Greg Kelly, multiple sources said.
The rape allegation is being investigated by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office because of the inherent conflict of interest in an NYPD probe, according to the sources.
The woman accusing Greg Kelly of rape has told police she became pregnant from their October sexual encounter and subsequently aborted the baby, sources told The Post today.
Greg Kelly’s lawyer, Andrew Lankler, said his client “strenuously denied” the allegation.
COMMISH'S SON ACCUSED OF RAPE
“Mr. Kelly is aware that the New York County District Attorney’s Office is conducting an investigation,” Lankler told The Post.
“Mr. Kelly strenuously denies any wrongdoing of any kind, and is cooperating fully with the district attorney’s investigation. We know the district attorney’s investigation will prove Mr. Kelly’s innocence.”
A police spokesman referred all questions to the Manhattan DA. A spokeswoman for DA Cyrus Vance Jr. declined to comment.
Rosanna Scotto, Kelly's "Good Day New York" co-host, said today "I love Greg. That's all I can say."
Kelly was absent from this morning's program.
Fox 5 Vice President and General Manager Lew Leone said today that Kelly "requested some time off," the network reported.
The woman, in her late 20s or early 30s, went to the 13th Precinct station house with her sister sometime after 8 p.m. Tuesday to file the complaint, sources said.
She told police she met Greg Kelly, 43, on a street Oct. 8 and they went for drinks at the South Street Seaport, the sources said.
Then, she claimed, they went to the lower Manhattan law firm where she works — not as a lawyer — and the alleged assault took place there.
Greg Kelly and the woman continued to communicate after the alleged incident, according to the sources.
It is not clear if those communications related to her claim she had gotten pregnant from their encounter.
