EXCLUSIVE: Strauss-Kahn Told Maid 'Don’t You Know Who I Am?' During Alleged Sex Attack
Foxnews ^ | 23 May 2011 | Jana Winter

Posted on 05/23/2011 6:27:02 PM PDT by for-q-clinton

According to the maid’s account, as told to investigators and relayed to FoxNews.com, the maid entered the room and was confronted by a naked Strauss-Kahn, who emerged from the bathroom and began grabbing the maid’s breasts while trying to pin her down on his bed.

The maid is deeply religious, investigators said, and immediately put her hands over her eyes so she wouldn’t see the naked Frenchman. He ran to her, began grabbing her breasts and pulling her down the hallway inside the luxury suite toward the bedroom.

The maid said she tried a variety of tactics to get herself out of the room and away from Strauss-Kahn. She said, “my manager is in the hallway,” which he wasn’t -- but the former IMF chief wasn’t scared off. The single mother allegedly told the Frenchman that the job was important to her and any conflict with a hotel guest would result in her losing her job.

“Please stop. I need my job, I can’t lose my job..." she told Strauss-Kahn, according to law enforcement sources.

Strauss-Kahn allegedly responded: “No, baby. Don’t worry, you’re not going to lose your job..." Strauss-Kahn responded, according to investigators.

While she continued to plead with him, begging him to stop, he allegedly continued to attack her, dragging her down the hallway.

When she pushed him away and ran toward the door, she slipped on a newspaper bag on the floor and fell to her knees. That’s when Strauss-Kahn came up behind her and forced her to perform oral sex, sources said.

The maid finally escaped from her alleged attacker by pushing him into the sharp edge of an armoire in the hotel suite. Sources said the Frenchman has a gash on his back where he hit the armoire.

So do you think the Socialist’s can still win?

If the runoff will be Sarko/LePen then the race is already over.

Depends on the Judge IMO. Whether that will be allowed in as evidence remains to be seen. NY Supreme Court Judges in the Criminal Division are sticklers, and although they want the accused to get a fair trial, they dont want their time wasted.
I don’t think we will be seeing the NY version of Judge Ito.
The Prosecutors are a lot more experienced and savvy than the hapless, clueless duo who prosecuted the case against OJ.

Hey! Impy
I think there are two people who benefit from this: Sarko and MLP.
I think the Socialists are well rid of DSK as a candidate. His history was well known and was bound to surface in the campaign. He is also terrible at retail politicking, and his ties to the IMF & International banking, wouldn’t help him in this election.
IMO the Socialists don’t have a really good candidate, and they have blown it and disgraced themselves in their disgusting defense, racist, sexist, misogynist defense of DSK.
MLP has now aligned herself with the anti-capitalists and Statists, the closest thing to Fascism we’ve seen. She is far more dangerous than her father ever was, and a much smarter, shrewder politician.
The merger of far right nationalism and the leftist anti-capitalist, (anti-liberale),  economic agenda is called Fascism. A term the French are uncomfortable with and are afraid to use when describing MLP & her movement. 
IOW Still way too early to tell.

They won’t call her what she is? I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. You’d think the media would hate her.

The media, totally leftist, does hate her. But they wont call her the Fascist that she is because they think we, the VRWC are “fascists”.
The French have a very long ugly history of flirting with fascism, from Petain to Mitterrand, but still cant see it when its right in front of them.

one could argue that the French revolution was fascist too, right?

Not to be insensitive but that’s the first question I ask myself with this story and I just can’t come up with decent explaination. Can somebody explain to me how someone without a gun or knife etc make you perform oral sex. Like someone said....couldn’t she just have bitten him? Seriously...someone help me out here..

I would be elated if the press does report his shenannigans. Public hummilation might work at keeping the defense occupied with dammage control.

II see Strauss’s wife is playing the “hillary” role of “standing by her man”. Another who loves the stage and spotlight....regardless of the outcome...she will come out smelling like a rose I think. Stupid non-the-less.

It is vital you remember this happening was not in her home or on the street...it was in the victim's work place which caters to the elite. Biting a “guest” would not come to mind as much as escaping the situation and which employees are instructed how to respond when "guests" step out of line. Not to mention coming to grip with the fact this is actually happening in the first place. From all the information I have seen, the victim followed the Hotels prodigal just as she should have, as did the Management and Security team when each interviewed her on the happenings surrounding this.

This is not a Super 8 happening....rather a very prestigious Hotel with very defined and explicit training of their employees and Management. I have a close family member who works in such an environment in upper management, and that in several High End establishments. There is a huge difference in how people are trained and guidelines concerning Guests and treatment of in all possible situations...from that of the mid and lower ends of these establishments...as well as the quality and professionalism of the employees.

Of course who pays the bill and such will now be one of the “stories” as we see them lining up.

The former head of the International Monetary Fund accused of sexually assaulting a New York hotel maid will receive:

-a $250,000 severance payment — paid in part courtesy of the American taxpayer — unless U.S. lawmakers can stop the “golden parachute” from landing in the French politician’s bank account.

The IMF claims it has no discretion in the matter of Dominique Strauss-Khan, who was already pulling down nearly $500,000 as managing director when he resigned after being arrested in New York. The one-time severance, along with a much smaller annual pension, was part of his contract.

But considering the heavy financial stake the United States has in the global lender, some lawmakers are trying to exert pressure on an organization that has come under increased scrutiny over how its vast international resources are being used.

“The scandal at the IMF is putting that organization in the public eye again and American taxpayers — who pay the largest share of the IMF’s bills — are raising a lot of important questions,”

Thanks for the link.
The IMF package is standard for that level of job.
If DSK is found guilty as charged, it won’t do him much good. He cant spend it in Attica.

One of the good things to come out of this is the light being shined on the IMF, its mission, funding, and activities.

One could, but one would be wrong. Look up the definition of Fascism. It is a political-economic system united big business and the State.

That won't last very long though...too many high powered individuals associated with IMF would be affected. We'll see this for awhile, now. But once things get underway, in the trial, IMF issues will fade fast if not before as leveraged individuals will play their hands.

I’m amazed at the need for some to vilify an obviously innocent victim.

Wasn’t Tallywacker a French politician during the Napoleonic era? Okay, maybe I have the name wrong...

Then comeback and read everyone of your stupid comments in this thread. And reverse it to yourself.

Oh how I love being right. Next time please don’t jump to conclusions especially with serious crimes such as this.

I did make a disparaging remark about John Kerry, but I think that was it.

I wasn’t saying everyone pinged was part of the lynch mob, I may not have made that clear in one of my posts though :-(

Definitely were some good freepers not passing judgement. However, man the lynch mob types wouldn’t quit. It saddens me that we are still that dumb to believe the first allegation of a sensational crime just because of ones political beliefs.
