Well, let’s see if this works:
INNOCENT!
Any relation to Amadou Diallo, gunned down in a doorway by cops while he reached for his wallet? Or was he the guy who got sodomized with a broom handle by cops. So many atrocities, it’s hard to keep them straight.
The union she belongs to sent her to work at the luxury hotel rather than sending her to the hotels around the JFK airport. It is not usual for new hires to start out in luxury hotels.
My question is, how much does the union know or have to do with her “turn down service”? She is pretty and obviously, according to her bank account, made a good living as a whore who happens to clean rooms.
correction, the maid was “allegedly assaulted”
this is one case where the usual “allegedly” qualification is especially important — there is little reason to believe it was a sexual assault rather than something consensual with a hotel whore who happened to be working as a maid there....
perhaps he didn’t know she expected payment, or perhaps she tried to demand more money than he’d agreed to, who knows at this point, but her credibility and her whole story of sexual assault seem to be on broken thin ice......
Considering the circumstances, it would be wise to decline.
I have always wondered if some of the maids in some of these upscale hotels don’t offer sex for pay to their wealthy clients. It may have been customary for Dominique Strauss-Kahn to engage in the maid services at some of these hotels. Strauss-Kahn may have thought Nafissatou Diallo was one of those maids and offered money. When she refused, he took offense and took his liberties anyway.
Her name and photo have been plastered all over the French press for months.
In America, we have an unwritten rule about not publishing the name or photo of alleged victims of sex crimes. I will continue to respect that journalistic tradition.
No matter the character of the victim, or her immigration status, I believe the attack did indeed take place.
Knowing DSK’s history and following his career for many years, there is nothing in this woman’s story to make me doubt it. We have heard it all many times before over many years.
