A woman filed a sexual assault allegation against late Labour Mo Jo Cox’s husband Brendan Cox. What is he doing now?
Jo Cox, a British politician, served as the Labour Member of Parliament for Baleny and Spen.
She died on June 16, 2016, after she was brutally shot and stabbed multiple times by a man with far-right sympathies.
Before stepping into politics, Cox was director of the Maternal Mortality Campaign from 2009 to 2011.
In 2012, she worked for Save the Children as a strategy consultant. Simultaneously, she also worked for the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
Additionally, Cox was a director of the strategy at the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood.

Jo Cox Husband Allegations- What Is Brendan Cox Doing Now?
Jo Cox’s husband Brendan Cox was accused of sexual harassment in 2015.
The woman claimed he touched her inappropriately while he was visiting Harvard that year.
Brendan allegedly bought her drinks, granted her hips, and forced his thumb into her mouth in a sexual manner.
Mr. Cox strongly denied all the accusations and claimed it was baseless.
But, he did admit that he made some mistakes while he was working at Save the Children. While apologized for his inappropriate conduct at the charity, he refused to admit he did any wrong with the woman at Harvard.
An investigation was carried out, but Cox resigned from the Jo Cox Foundation and More in Common before it could be completed.
He’d set up the foundation in the memory of his late wife Jo Cox.
However, all the charges against Brendan were later dropped.
Thank you, Batley & Spen, for showing that Jo Cox’s words remain true. pic.twitter.com/34u47Lq87j
