Business Insider ^ | May 18, 2011 | Courtney Comstock

The video below of Tristane Banon talking about what it was like when Dominique Strauss-Kahn came onto her is getting posted all around the internet now that DSK has been charged with sexual assault.

[...]

"It ended really badly. We ended up fighting. It finished really violently."

"We fought on the floor. It wasn't a case of a couple of slaps. I kicked him, he unhooked my bra, he tried to open my jeans."

[...]

"For my first book I had to interview people about their biggest mistake...he didn't really answer but suggested we meet again. He asked me to come to his hotel... he asked me to hold his hand while recording the interview, and then he kept on trying to touch other parts of my body... I was wearing a black turtle neck... we fought on the floor... he sent me an sms after saying: do I scare you?"

Banon has said that she's now planning on filing a formal complaint against the IMF chief.

Could not find this article on a search.

Video on website page is in French and apparently retracted from youtube due to a copyright claim.

Anyway it sounds like the guy has issues. I am aware that banks usually have strict behavior codes. Difficult to believe that this guy got away with what he did for so long (presuming the allegations are true). It seems to make the IMF and similar banks look very bad. Just how much of this type of stuff goes unreported will probably never be known, one supposes. Too bad for all concerned...

Behavior codes?

From the French?

The next thing you’ll claim is that we have an IQ code for the White House.

Al Gore was in a similar incident last year that cost him his marriage and didn’t get 10% of the play this did.

“this guy is a down and dirty rapist.”

He obviously gets off on hurting women during sex. He deserves to end his days in prison like Richard Speck.

Powerful leftist men have “needs”, and they should not be denied because they do so much to help out the poor, and their goals are so worthy.
