Strauss-Kahn and Tristane Banon

Dominique Strauss-Kahn was brought face to face on Thursday with the French writer who has accused him of trying to rape her eight years ago.
In two hours of police questioning, Mr. Strauss-Kahn, the former managing director of the International Monetary Fund, continued to deny any wrongdoing, one of his lawyers said.
Mr. Strauss-Kahn and his accuser, Tristane Banon, were questioned together at a French police station as investigators sought to compare their versions of events and extract further information on the case.
They met for the first time since Mr. Strauss-Kahn was arrested in the United States in May on charges of sexual assault. In that case, New York prosecutors decided to drop charges because of credibility problems with the accuser, a hotel housekeeper.
“Mr. Strauss-Kahn repeated that there had been neither aggression nor violence in this case,” one of his lawyers, Frédérique Beaulieu, said afterward. “He didn’t apologize and had no reason to do so.”
Ms. Banon maintained her version of the facts, said her lawyer, David Koubbi, and insisted that Mr. Strauss-Kahn had lied to investigators. “Ms. Banon continues to tell the truth,” Mr. Koubbi said, “and Mr. Strauss-Kahn continues to lie.”

And Banon's mother quite willingly slept with DSK at some point.
And the little private meeting....I'd bet she was almost hoping for a hit. Why meet him privately otherwise. She's a kook!!
DSK comes face to face with Tristane Banon, the young woman he attempted to rape when she interviewed him. She was 22 at the time. Her mother, a top Socialist Party flunky who had sex with DSK, coerced her into remaining silent.
In other news, Roman Polanski actually apologized to the teenage girl he he drugged and raped in California. I’ll try to find the video for you all.
DSK refuses to apologize, and in the NY civil case brought by the chambermaid, he is claiming Diplomatic Immunity. The motion goes before
a Judge in the Bronx shortly.
The Soap Opera/Tragedy/Travesty continues!

Waif to go!
I understood in the case with the chambermaid he could not declare Diplomatic Immunity? But then this would not mean he wouldn't try. What a disgusting piece of crap he is....no matter how much someone might try you cannot polish a tu*d...and that is just what he is!
Yeah........no I am pretty sure that when you have that many women complaining about one man,it is something quite serious that is going on.
Thanks for the update. I’m interested in freak Polanski’s apologies. DSK will never admit wrongdoing - he’s probably a sociopath.
Thanks Cincinna.
I agree. Everyone is lying besides poor Dominique. Same story, many, many women from many countries, all claiming sexual attacks with the same MO.
Thanks for the ping; pic. HOORAY Tristane Banon! UNaccountable bureaucrats BUMP!
