District Attorney Says DSK Accuser Admitted She Lied To Grand Jury About What Happened Following Purported Attack

Just out from Reuters:

  • STRAUSS-KAHN ACCUSER ADMITTED SHE LIED TO GRAND JURY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED FOLLOWING PURPORTED ATTACK - D.A.
  • STRAUSS-KAHN ACCUSER CLEANED ANOTHER ROOM AFTER INCIDENT, CONTRARY TO WHAT SHE TOLD GRAND JURY - NY PROSECUTOR

More as we get the full letter sent out by D.A. Cyrus Vance.

In the meantime, this from Reuters:

New York prosecutors will continue their investigation and re-examine evidence in the case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn, charged with attempting to rape a hotel maid, the judge in the case said on Friday.

"There will be no rush to judgment," New York Supreme Court Justice Michael Obus said at a hearing where the former IMF chief was released from house arrest and his bail revoked.

"The people will continue to investigate and re-examine the matter as appropriate."

Sources close to the case say questions about the credibility of Strauss-Kahn's accuser have been raised.

Strauss-Kahn was charged with sexual assault at the Sofitel Hotel in New York on May 14 and has been held under house arrest. His next court appearance is set for July 18.

nothing worse than a Socialist that thinks he's a smart arse when history teaches us each and every one is an ignorant wrecking ball ...having said that, it's only a matter of time before they trip over their own stupidity, slap egg on their own faces and ruin their own reputation... Stewart has managed all 3 in one mis-judged hatchet job on Strauss-Kahns reputation and his defenders... Stewart hits the wrecking ball and it boomerangs back right between his scrawny legs peddling a shambolic NY stitch-up job ...Jon Stewart, the not very smart smart-arse, RIP

If the scenario of a high level "conspiracy" emanating from the DA's office now becomes a bone of contention between the victim's lawyer and the DA, given that the top police dog (bitch?) at the NYPD, Harlem has resigned, makes this a real can of worms. I hope the judge has his hat firmly screwed on! The shit will get very thick by the looks of it!

The timing of vilifying the victim is suspicious for sure.  The timing of all the manipulation is too close to the events it is manipulated for.  It's too easy to spot the manipulation.  Now that DSKs job is filled, they are letting him off the hook.  More examples of this are:  Lulzsec monkeying around while they are working on Internet security regulations, and the bombing in Afghanistan right after Obama talks about bringing some troops home.

"She came in for one reason only: to clean that suite".

Well she sure wanted to clean that sweet I say.

Vance: The Elite Always Fail Upwards In a Crony Capitalist System
Vance's old man was a No Hoper and a loser One-Term Carter regular... The son is a No Hoper, incompetent yes man... and now LOSER...

I see quite a career ahead for an incompetent, yes man, No Hoper, loser named Junior... No not Shrub... Cyrus Vance Jr.

I am seriously wondering why Gloria Alred isn't all over this case.  No, I know why - because the evil scumbags just made sure that the victim was taken care of and sent on her way so this gargoyl could get back to whatever post is now waiting for him.  Bastards.

Clarification - I'm not a G. Alred fan...find her entertaining at times (she's just chosen to take on the wrong kind of clients of late).

If I were an unskilled third world immigrant who's probably never seen 50k in my life, would I sacrifice my dignity and/or possible anal virginity for a 50 million payoff from a corrupt inbred eurotrash and his equally worthless billionairess heirress wife? Is this even a question? People do much worse for much less every day.

Anyway, irrelevant as it's GOGI at the Intl US Tax Dollars Fund. One inbred eurofag out, another one 10x as bad sent in. At least DSK only liked him some DSL.

From ....and justice for all

Al Pacino - The one thing that bothered me, the one thing that stayed in my mind and I couldn't get rid of it, that haunted me, was why. Why would she lie? What was her motive for lying? If my client is innocent, she's lying, why? Was it blackmail? No. Was it jealousy? No. Yesterday I found out why. She doesn't have a motive, you know why? Because she's not lying... And ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the prosecution is not going to get that man today, no, because I'm gonna get him! my client, the Honorable Henry T. Fleming a.k.a. DSK, should go right to fucking jail! The son of a bitch is guilty!

This woman's falsified immigration documents, lying about what happened after the rape and telephone conversation to a prisoner in jail about how she could financially gain from the case have virtually destroyed her credibility. I have to say it just didnt seem right from the start that someone in DSK's position would commit such an act as was alleged. That and including the NYPD's behaviour implying his guilt right at the start DID arouse the suspiscion of many about the prosecutors motivations.

I thought that they did DNA testing on a blue dress and confirmed that DSK had been sexual with that woman. Wait, maybe I'm thinking of Billie Bubba Clinton in the oval office...

It gets hard to keep these distinguished statesmen shenanigans straight!

How quickly we forget. Remember Khan had mentioned bond holders might have to take a haircut. So he get's jailed, perp walked and loses his job. Then the day after they fill the position with a Sarkozy crony, oops the evidence is bad folks. Remember, Khan was the favorite also to be the next French President. How convenient that they are not dropping the charges until the 18'th. The primaries are on the 13'th.  They achieved their goal. Next step is that the Guinea has an unfortunate accident. Wait and see. Regarding the Supposed victim's lawyer  and what he says. He is full of shit, he is seeing dollar signs and trying to hold things together.

This guy DSK will be able to sue the NY DA's office for millions, for having jailed him based on a "hookers" cooked evidence, for having destroyed his image/international reputation and lose his mega job at the IMF! All that while in Riker's ISland for no rhyme or reason! 

 

Multimillion USD damages suit in the pipeline! I wonder if Glen Close will take on his case?

Reality check:

 

#1 "Drug dealers" do not launder $100,000 through maids. Period. To launder $100k, you need to be able to issue receipts for legitimate transactions worth nearly double that.

#2 You do not get pay-offs to the tune of $100,000 wired direct to your personal checking account - for tax  / traceability reasons alone, they go to offshore holdings

#3 A "bang & shame" job, from a single mother who is living in an AIDS sheltered housing, and is on a maid's salary does not cost you $100k. It costs you circa $5-10k. In NY, getting someone killed costs you less than $100k.

#4 DSK hired ex-CIA and some great dirt dealers. If you could name a person who could move $100k, no questions asked into an account, it'd be his wife. If you could name a team who could create wire-taps, it'd be his ex-CIA team.

#5 If she did talk to a "convict" and discuss a "set-up" then who employed the con? Who allowed the phone call? Who knew about it? [NOTE - all phone calls to penitentiaries in the USA are wire-tapped by law. DERP]

 

 

And so on. The hooks into the mouth are so unsubtle that it isn't true.

 

 

But, like we always said - no true blood does real time. Shame & game? Sure. Actual time? No.
