A New York magazine reporter strolled into the unlocked home of President Donald Trump's former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski — and his lawyer says he is holding the magazine liable for the allegedly criminal act, the Daily Mail reported.
In a letter to the magazine, Lewandowski's lawyer said he is suffering from "embarrassment and anxiety" as a result of reporter Olivia Nuzzi entering his apartment without permission while working on a feature story about former White House communications director Hope Hicks, according to the Daily Mail.
Nuzzi has admitted she walked in the GOP operative's Washington home — and even took a photo of the interior that she posted on Twitter, the Daily Mail reported.
As news of the entry surfaced two months ago, Lewandowski also took to Twitter to jibe: "I haven't seen my photo album that was in the foyer prior to this incident. Wonder where it could be."
New York magazine spokeswoman Lauren Starke told Fox News Lewandowski's tweet was "completely ridiculous and false," adding: "We stand by Olivia's reporting methods and don't believe she did anything wrong."
Lewandowski's lawyer counters that response proves the alleged criminal acts were sanctioned by the magazine, the Daily Mail.
Nuzzi wrote about the incident for the Columbia Journalism Review, asserting, "I tried to knock on the basement door, but the gate wasn't open. Then I walked up the steps to the main door and knocked for, like, 10 minutes. And I'm knocking, knocking, nobody's answering. But after a while, I just touched the door knob, and the door was open. I walked in and I'm in the house, by myself."
"So I took this photo of the quote on a wall," she said; the quote said "Te Wilderness Shall Blossom As The Rose." "I peered around, but I didn't walk fully into the house."
Lewandowski said she did not have permission to go into a house he uses as his office. Lewandowski lives above the offices of Turnberry Solutions, a lobbying firm.
Nuzzi told Fox News when Lewandowski first mentioned legal action that the door she opened was "technically" the Turnberry Solutions entrance.
