Mario Batali likely not to be charged for two alleged sexual assault cases in NYC: report

Mario Batali might be off the hook for alleged cases of sexual misconduct in NYC.

Sources from the New York City Police Department reportedly told TMZ that two cases of sexual assault against the disgraced celebrity chef have been closed.

A representative for the NYPD’s Public Information office declined to comment to Fox News about the investigation.

Police had been investigating the two charges against Batali after several accusations against the chef came to light in 2018. One woman had claimed Batali raped her at Babbo, his flagship NYC restaurant, in 2004, while another appeared on “60 Minutes” and alleged that Batali drugged and sexually assaulted her during a 2005 visit to the Spotted Pig eatery in Manhattan’s West Village.
