More Strauss-Kahn Rumors Emerge Updated: Sunday, 22 May 2011, 9:35 AM CDT Published : Sunday, 22 May 2011, 9:35 AM CDT
(NewsCore) - NEW YORK -- Former International Monetary Fund (IMF) head Dominique Strauss-Kahn attempted to lure two attractive hotel employees to his $3,000-a-night New York hotel suite -- and later put the moves on an Air France flight attendant following his alleged sexual assault on a maid, the New York Post reported Sunday.
"What a nice ass!" he barked to the attendant, using the lewd French expression "Quel beau cul!" as she prepared the business-class cabin for takeoff last Saturday.
His catcall came just moments before Port Authority detectives hauled him off the plane, French magazine Le Point reported.
The final act of lust capped a whirlwind weekend of attempted womanizing for the former front-runner of the 2012 French presidential election.
The frisky Frenchman first tried his seduction skills on a VIP receptionist who escorted him to his suite at the Sofitel hotel Friday evening, law enforcement sources said.
When he got to his room, the 62 year old asked the "attractive" worker to join him for a glass of Champagne after her shift -- an invitation she described to authorities as "inappropriate" and that she rejected on the spot, the sources said.
Strauss-Kahn, a married father of four, then tried his game the following day on the desk receptionist who first checked him in, described by a source as an "attractive woman who caught his eye."
He asked her to join him in his suite, where he had a complimentary bottle of Dom Perignon Champagne. The woman said that, at first, he was "borderline flirting," and she declined the sordid invite, according to sources.
His attempted seductions came to light after investigators interviewed every Sofitel employee and pored over more than 48 hours of video footage, including recordings of Strauss-Kahn bolting from the hotel Saturday afternoon without checking out.
The silver-haired skirt-chaser did not explicitly ask either woman for sex, but both described his advances as blatantly "inappropriate," the sources said.
The frustrated Lothario allegedly resorted to violence after striking out with the two hotel staffers. Prosecutors said that after emerging from the suite's bathroom naked, he threw himself upon the unsuspecting 32-year-old maid who was in his room to clean.
Strauss-Kahn allegedly chased her down the hallway and into his bedroom, grabbed her breasts, attempted to pull down her pantyhose and forced her to perform fellatio before she tore free from his grasp and ran to tell her colleagues, who called the cops.
After leaving the hotel, the ex-banking big shot stopped for lunch with his daughter Camille, a Columbia University student, before grabbing a cab to JFK Airport. But the harried political bigwig realized that he left one of his seven cell phones behind and called the hotel.
Police investigating the alleged rape attempt had already told hotel employees to ask him where he was and tell him that they would deliver the phone. Strauss-Kahn even asked the pilot to delay the flight so it could be delivered but was refused, according to Le Point.
Strauss-Kahn was indicted on seven counts, including attempted rape, criminal sexual assault and unlawful imprisonment. He could face up to 25 years if convicted. He is pleading not guilty
Now, lets go over to that bridge I was telling you about. It's a short hop to Brooklyn.
He makes Bill Clinton look like an amateur.
Who does he think he is, Bill Clinton?
“What a nice ass!”
Soon to be his prison nick name...
More breaking info at link.
Wrong! Bill Clinton got away with it and was relected.
Running doen the hall, throwing her to the floor....
Not a peep out of her??? and not a mark on him...
She should at least get an Oscar.
She...I believe he was set up.
Entertaining article. In it, Strauss-Kahn is referred to as a “frisky Frenchman,” “silver-haired skirt-chaser,” “frustrated Lothario,” and (losing his one of his seven, SEVEN, cell phones) “harried political bigwig”.
I think we need to see the evidence, Sac *wink*
"I'm paying you $1000.00 an hour. If anybody
at Rikers touches my *** I'll have you disbarred."
More of this stuff will come out at trial, but its not just the rape kit that nails him, its the injuries suffered that are going to hang him.
Also, the stuff about her not screaming, he has a huge suite, I'm not sure how his looked, but some (not all) of the high end suites I stayed in, I could have throw a superbowl party and no one would have known.
Didn't his big scandal come after 1996?
However, he did survive impeachment, and established the NOW endorsed "one free grope rule" for those who support abortion.
Dominique is going to make some home-boy on the cell block a really nice wife.
There IS lots of physical evidence---DNA under her fingernails when she scratched him, blood on the bed, a paper trail indicating he had flim-flammed the hotel into thinking he had left.
Luxe hotels handle $3000 a night guests with kid gloves. There's a protocol----the help does not freely enter rooms at will. Apparently maids are not allowed to enter rooms until they are specifically told the guest has departed.
The hotel first sends in a bellman to cart off dishes, empty bottles, and the like BEFORE the maids go in to clean.
The victim had been told by the bellman that the guest had left....and got the OK to enter the room. But when she walked in, DSK was apparently hiding in the bathroom and ran out to attack her when he heard her come in.
From what we now know, it looks like HE set her up for rape.
They hustled him off to Rikers despite a high paid lawyer's plea........b/c he's done this before and had been warned. As was posted above----everyone in Paris has known for years he had something of a problem. Not many female journalists are prepared to interview him alone.
Interesting that he bolted the hotel to escape and left his belongings-----but really, really wanted the cell phone. Makes you wonder what was on there that he was desperate to hide?
cochon !
After Magnum and Tawana and the fact that Kahn WAS chief contender for the President of France until this happened....I'll wait.
Remember....Magnum's rape kit said bruises etc consistent with rape.
Those stupid buttons keep getting smaller.
