Sexual Assault Case Against Strauss-Kahn Was A Set Up - Charges To Be Dropped by Sunofgod(m): 1:29pm On Jul 01, 2011
DSK In Hearing Friday To Seek Release On His Own Recognizance

PARIS (MNI) – The intimate assault case against former International
Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn is unraveling and criminal
charges against him could soon be dropped, the New York Times reported
early Friday morning.


Strauss-Kahn will return to court in New York City today in a
previously unscheduled hearing to seek release on his own recognizance.

The newspaper, citing two well-placed law enforcement officials,
reported that prosecutors no longer believed the account of
Strauss-Kahn’s accuser, because she had lied to them repeatedly and
given inconsistent information. The sources said she was caught in a
recorded telephone conversation one day after the alleged incident
discussing the benefits of pursuing charges against Strauss-Kahn.

The woman, a 32-year old Guinean immigrant who worked as a hotel
housekeeper at Sofitel in Manhattan, said Strauss-Kahn had attacked and
sexually assaulted her when she entered his room to clean it.

The case made huge waves across the political and financial worlds,
given Strauss-Kahn’s position at the pinnacle of international finance,
his crucial role in negotiating aid packages for debt-stricken Eurozone
countries and his front-runner status as a possible Socialist Party
candidate in next year’s French presidential election.

His sudden incarceration, which forced him to resign the IMF post
and appeared to destroy his political career, was a dramatic reversal of
fortune for Strauss-Kahn. This most recent turn of event could prove to
be an equally dramatic reversal — in the opposite direction.

According to the New Times report, the sources said prosecutors
plan to tell the judge on Friday that they have “problems with the
case,” reflecting the likelihood that criminal charges will be dropped.

According to the report, the prosecutors found inconsistencies in
asylum application of the accuser and discovered that she had possible
links to criminals, including people involved in drug dealing and money
laundering.


The man with whom she had the recorded phone conversation a day
after accusing Strauss-Kahn had been arrested on charges of possessing
400 pounds of marijuana, the paper said. He was reportedly among a
number of individuals who had made multiple deposits, totaling about
$100,000, into the woman’s bank account over the past two years.

The latest revelations in the Strauss-Kahn case hit France with as
much electricity as his original arrest. French media Friday morning
were abuzz with chatter about a possible resurrection of Strauss-Kahn’s
presidential hopes.

Michele Sabban, a senior Socialist Party official, urged other
declared Socialist candidates to “suspend the party’s primary for
awhile” in order give Strauss-Kahn the time he needs to sort things out.

What a nasty set-up. . . . . .

The damage has been done, the IMF have their new 'Puppet' and Sarkozy likely to win the French election.

Job done. . . . . .

The wrongly accused former IMF head should now sue the living hell out of everything and everyone in sight, starting with the hotel where that extortionate accusation originated.

That innocent man has been humiliated in court, has lost his top job, and has most likely lost the trust of his family.   The mental anguish suffered alone ought to be worth at least $100 million USD, but a good attorney ought to be able to reel in a far larger settlement, given the high profile status of the plaintiff.  

Herr Dominique Strauss-Kahn, without further ado, please now sue the chit out of them all, to ensure you get the last laugh out of this debacle, while hopefully sending the hotel that ruined your life into permanent bankruptcy.

Still waiting for more details. I maintain that many western and westernised women have made or have been used to make many spurious sexual accusations on men hoping that the press, women organisations and the general sympathy for women as the weaker sex will do the rest. This may be one of those.

The whole thing stinks. . . . This week they announced the new IMF head and a few days later they're saying charges against DSK are to be dropped.

That's the negative side of it. Future court cases will use this to support their argument.

i knew it. . . . . .the whole story stank from the start. what would strauss-kahn be doing with an immigrant? if he wanted a roll-in-the-hay, he would hire a high-class hooker. he should sue the living day-light of the media, the hotel, the immigrant and everybody concerned. his reputation has been ruined - he's got nothing else to lose now. he should fight like a wounded carnivore.

Its plain state managed setup.
EzeUche:

Remember he did run from the hotel and tried to flee. Would someone innocent do that?
OAM4J:

That is not totally true. The flight had been booked and confirmed days before the incident and after he left the hotel he visited another relative with whom he had lunch.

That is not a picture of someone in a hurry to leave the country.
EzeUche:

If what you say is true, then maybe. . .

But. . . why would the maid be Intimate with a stranger and then become upset? She had been a worker at that hotel for many years with no prior incidents occurring before.

OAM4J:

It is not new for maids wanting to be intimate with guests, it happens all the time, sometimes they offer the guests this service for quick bucks. I know.

If it is not a grand set-up, then its about her wanting to make more money off him, prolly after discovering who he really is.

Read about her background and you'll understand.

There is no dispute that there was s.e.xual contact between the two. Mr Khan said it was consensual!! Just coz you are an immigrant doesnt mean you can't be hot/attractive.

The 'Press' convicted the uy on the spot only for the courts to acquit him . . . .

The picture of the maid needs to be circulated to all diplomats entering america so that they dont become another on of her victims.
Re: Sexual Assault Case Against Strauss-Kahn Was A Set Up - Charges To Be Dropped by cap28: 12:07am On Jul 02, 2011
the case against this man has been a pack of lies from start to finish, some powerful enemies set him up, kept him out of circulation for 6 weeks and then as soon as they found a replacement at the IMF they've suddenly decided that the alleged victim is a bare faced liar - i wouldnt be suprised if this alleged victim never existed in the first place, the whole thing has been a complete fabrication from start to finish, well, his enemies have acheived their aim, they've forced him out of the IMF and his political career is well and truly over for good now, he might as well retire at least he can look forward to a nice and relaxing retirement on a six figure pension.

Re: Sexual Assault Case Against Strauss-Kahn Was A Set Up - Charges To Be Dropped by Nobody: 2:10am On Jul 02, 2011
their case is collapsing due to the numerous lies that this woman has told when she was first interviewed by the police.

- they first ask her about her status. she said she was a legal refugee and cried about how she was gang violated back in Guinea etc then the defense found out that what she told the US gov to get the asylum status was false (gang ra.pe etc). they even have the detailed info on how she was given a cassette tape about what she should say to immigration etc. she later admitted it all and that what she told the US gov to get refugee status was false!

- she first told the police that she went straight to report the supposed crime when she left the room but that was discovered to be a lie also. she left the room, stayed on the  floor in some service room, waited there till DSK left and went to clean another room +DSK's room BEFORE going to report the supposed crime. when confronted, she again admitted that what she first said was a lie.

- she lied on her tax return and claim somebody else's kid in order to qualify for housing and get bigger tax return.

- the police asked her how many mobile phones she had, and she said ONE. then they found out that she had 5different mobiles subscriptions at the moment.

- the day after the supposed crime, she was recorded in a telephone conversation with some drug dealer serving time in jail. in that conversation she specifically talk about the benefit of pursuing this case against DSK.

AND THE CHERRY ON THE CAKE
: about $100K has been deposited in the lady's account by d¡fferent sources from all over the country within the last 2 yr(that drug dealer is one of the person who deposited some). when she was asked what is the money for? she CLAIMS she doesnt know who gave her the money, BWAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!

THIS LOOK LIKE THE GAME IS ON. . . . . . . . . whether it was the French gov (to discredit him before the election) the US gov (because of DSK stand towards the US gov) or simply some drug dealers who thought DSK was easy picking, somebody's plan is backfiring.

This stinks. It stinks to the point of making me nauseous. That's why the only r.ap.e cases I tend to believe are those by armed robbers or miscreants who waylay female victims and all that. All it takes to prove that consensual sex is despoil is for the useless woman to claim that it was. And on the basis of her false claim, an innocent man's face would be paraded all over the media, he would lose his job, and his reputation and dignity would be in permanent tatters! Is that fair? Seriously, this whole saga would make me lose sympathy for any supposed ra.p.e victim - unless the entire ra.p.e scene is captured on video for us to see and believe.

If there is any justice in the world, that feminist puppet would step down from the IMF MD position, DSK would return to his job, and the idiotic guinea pig accuser would be dissolved in acid. But then, there is hardly any justice in the world. The whole thing stinks to high heavens.

bro, complete set up, i am beginning to wonder whether this girl ever existed - did you know that Sarkozy's late step father was a high ranking CIA official?  His name was Frank Wisener and he married Sarkozy's mother when Sarkozy was 7 years old.
