Subject: RE: BS: Strauss-Kahn. American dirty tricks?
gnu, have you read about the revised translation of the phone call? I haven't seen anything about the money in the bank account. Could you find a link on that?

This discusses the counter version of the phone call - it isn't the source I got it from, though. There are a number of sites which cover this matter.


Phone discussion

This seems a balanced assessment of the situation.

Article summarising case

While searching, I did find some references to the money, but apparently the prosecutors did not find it relevant.

Why are you so heated about this? The woman has a history of lying, yes. And DSK has a history of poor sexual behaviour. And it appears that many maids in hotels have experienced this sort of thing from other men. Nothing proven at all about whether what happened was consensual or not. But even if it was, what sort of man gains pleasure from this sort of encounter, and why should he be protected?
