Presenting DSK's Brand New $14 Million Tribeca House Arrest Palace
DSK's torturous stay in corporate housing for the average joe, even for those from IMF bailed out countries, is coming to an end. Next stop: a $14 million palace just purchased by the missus at 153 Franklin Street, half a block away from iconic TriBeCa eatery Bubby's. From the WSJ: "David Bookstaver, a spokesman for the state court system, said that New York Supreme Court Justice Michael Obus approved Mr. Strauss-Kahn's move to a new residence during a conference call with his defense attorneys and prosecutors on Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Bookstaver said he doesn't know where Mr. Strauss-Kahn's new residence will be or when he will be moved." Damn it sure is good to be married to a billionairess, who will do everything in her power from preventing her husband's improprieties from spilling over into her own social scene.

Ass-Raping bastard is getting a pretty good deal, I'd say.
Indeed. Plus, I wonder if he's gonna get to choose the maid himself. Who knows.
When he moves into his permanent room in Rikers, the contrast will make it that much more painful.
What a disgusting shit hole of a place that is. It gives a whole new meaning to the words "Lipstick on a Pig".
27 foot wide? My Garage is 27 foot wide with 10 foot high ceiling. Does the house at least have a two car garage like mine? Forget that dump.
somehow i don't think that's the way most will see this. these pictures and the dsk accusations are indeed useful material for education of the masses in the ways of the elites. the control frauds are somehow too complex and dry to heat the blood but the illicit/criminal sex combined with over the top opulence might do it.
It's shamefully vulgar, tawdry even. Wife should be arrested and charged with apallingly bad taste.
that's "maidS" to you. MaidSSSSS.
"Nanny/Guest Suite w/bath & separate entrance..."
Well now. Sounds like the perfect set for DSK.
+1 ..lol
Come on now Ray! A man that rich can't be bad. I'll give a rich guy the benefit of the doubt anytime! I wonder what really happened that day! I'm sure it would surprise us, Do you think she will get a lot of money out of all this and return to Africa and live out the rest of her, short life as some kind of a celebrity for having brought the rich European down??
He's been set up. He predicted he would be, just like this, in an interview just a week before it happened. And this gem, a man who has just committed assault and rape and is trying to escape, calls the hotel from the airport to tell them he left his cell phone and would they please forward it to him?
If you read about him and his reputation some time ago, you might have had an epiphany and realised how to destroy him. The public are such firm believers in DNA, and they can`t get over their class resentment.
The Liberation article was made up though. It came out after the allegations. It`s weak because it can be taken either way.
lol...I can't believe the numbers of people rushing to his defense or when a crooked oligarch scumbag gets busted, assuming that it was some vast conspiracy to set him up.
News flash: the guy engaged in illegal behavior just like Spritzer did.
I've heard an agent running advance payments through the Guinean wronged woman's book rights is actually paying for his digs.
That's how the Illuminati roll - get baked down in public but live like a King behind the scenes. Whether he was set-up or not, I hope someone $h!ts on his pizza when people find out he's their newest tenant
so where exactly did Ms S-K get her billions from??

I fell sorry for the stuffed animals, they are gonna be raped senseless.
Jesus H. Christ. His wife paid for this?
She does know what happened, right? I mean, even if he turns out to have been set up and the whole sordid affair was consenual ( I'm not saying it was )...I would still imagine that sticking your penis in the maid's mouth would be considered uncouth by the wife, if not outright fucking vulgar.
Actually I think this was paid for by about a dozen African countries.
The fine line between uncouth and vulgar is illuminated (snigger) by whether said penis was inserted into a (as in any) rectal cavity, first.
Jeez, my wife won't even let me date, let alone do something like this. If I was in his preDICKament, she wouldn't buy me a house. Instead, I'd have to sleep with one eye open and wear an industrial-strength cod-piece 100 percent of the time...
So this is better than Rikers Island, huh?
I told 'ya guys this Plutocrat was going to get off easy....
and you was right.
... and I don't think anyone disagreed. How's those assless chaps and/or Footlocker doing? I mean really.
Who has gone into a Foot Locker since you could wear 'Hypercolor' and fart different colors?
i think that was the maid's original complaint actually: "he got off WAY to easy." and then after a thoughtful silence the police were about to ask...but then she screamed "AND THEN HE...
Nice job for a socialist if one can get it.
Hypocrite.
Pussy Galore
Ok, so, I was thinking...everybody thinks this was a setup, including DSK, as he had said months ago that Sarkozy would set him up as a rapist. Then why did he not travel with his wife? I would have had my wife with me wherever I went. I would have had her in that hotel room with me, that is for sure. So I got to thinking, is he on the take? Was he blackmailed? I am just saying, because once again, if he knew they were gunning for him, why was he acting so lame and traveling solo?
"...is he on the take?"
"...is he on the take?"
As head of the IMF, a global bankster's bankster with no official oversight by anybody or anything which even gives a rats ass? Head of an organization which systematically even by the Rothschild's own words, "enslaves with debt", rapes and pillages whole entire fucking countries, redistributing the riches to developed world governments and the rich and powerful. Imagine the freedom of unquestioned wire transfers to and from, through a non-audited international supra-national bank. No different than the Fed or any other such institution with no oversight.
The power and magic of sending money unquestioned to or from any where in the world. Where the fuck do all those peanut farmer third and fourth world dictators who are weaning their countries on the IMF teat send their money to? IMF funds? Anybody wanna bet who gets cuts of the pirated loot? Just another conspiracy theory, another meaningless fantasy, another novella in the history of mankind.
"...is he on the take?"
Fuck no.
He was on the take.
Who, for example is gunning for Greece's gold reserves? The EBC and IMF. They want the shit as collateral, knowing full well that the borrower (Greece) is going to go belly, subsequent to having been jammed with additional debt.
Ever fucking heard of Fraudulent Conveyance?
Was he on the fucking take?
In the interest of full disclosure, I have never met DSK, never worked for the IMF, do not know his wife, I am not aware that I would, do or don't know any of his other victims, couldn't care less about getting a job there or in any other similar institution, have never to my knowledge benefited directly of indirectly through any IMF program, and don't even like the fucking French because as an Anglo, got pissed upon by the arrogant little pricks one too many times. And no, it's not a resentment, just plain fucking Karma, dude.
Schadenfreude
"As head of the IMF, a global bankster's bankster with no official oversight by anybody or anything which even gives a rats ass?"
Warming up the pipes...me me me, da da da...

La la la...me me me...

Figaro, fiiigaaarooo!!!
Schadenfreude...exactfuckinlacty.
Good rant, but I think you missed my point. My question is, did someone say they would kill his family and kill him unless a spectacle was made of his nature.
I apologize. I did miss that. By a mile. But had fun going down the path I'd chosen.
Oh, and about him getting knocked off? You just gave me an idea!
Yeah, if he knows too much and gets the old El Pissoed at either being set up or not being bailed out with a mere slap on the hand, there could be many who might think he'd possibly be too big a song bird for their good.
Yeah, a right bloody Ramond Chandler novel.
Personally, I think he cares about his family as much as he cared about the maid.
Prolly jus me though ;-)
you know it's real "when they think it's a set up." I actually had to apologize to myself for thinking he might have been innocent.
With that cinema setup, the porn should feel real life. Perhaps some maid-inspired titles?
How would you like to be the housekeeper? I don't think all of those gleaming surfaces are maintained by the little woman... Maybe as a political wife she was just relieved that he was getting his jollies elsewhere...
Or, maybe MrsDSK hired someone named "Edgar" to handle it though...
Ah to be obscenely wealthy and oh so continental...
Munch munch munch...
"Damn it sure is good to be married to a billionairess, who will do everything in her power from preventing her husband's improprieties from spilling over into her own social scene."
LOL!!!...cough...hack...gag...a kept man bitchez!!! ;-)
Relax, its really not worth the 14 million. Not to come off like a complete ass here but there are nicer places to be had for that kind of money.
You came off like a complete ass there.
Yep, Greece is selling the island of Lesbos for 12 million.
Great idea -- sic him on the Lesbos!
DSK blamed Putin for the setup-Putin sec issued official denial. He's guarded by the same bunch who guarded Madoff -you dont entrust your sec to just anyone. Noticed that his Putin jab didn't get much airtime on the KKK MSM -same people he pissed off with his bancor talk.
Glenn Beck is pure Goebbelian evil. Amazing to see somthimg like that on TV. Interesting times.
Maybe DSK will suffer from being locked up 24/7 with his dumbass wife.
let her throw her money away on his rapin' cheatin' ass, the quicker it gets out of her hands the better we all are
A naked, and wrinkly, DSK: "Don't you know who I am?"
Maid: "Er... Bill Clinton? ....Al Gore? .... (running) I know you can't be Teddy Kennedy so I give up!"
Am i missing something ? surely all of this is only temporary until the guilty verdict
and then back to the real world of orange jumpsuits ?
Was that place designed to look like the interior of an airport on purpose? Even the bathroom looks like an airport restroom. Oh well, I'm not an urban sophisticate so I don't know much about this stuff.
Can we get a couple of shots of the maid's quarters?
That has got to be the swankest "prison" (holding cell?) in history. Pablo Escobar would be jealous.
Sweet Deal.....nice to be Mega-Rich.
.
This kind of coin and the rat has to chase maid cheese?
I cannot wait until these robbers are hung.
leave the guy alone. he's really good for the nyc economy.
Thinking about it, you are right... from the maid to the lawyers, real state agent, cabs, flight ticket from wife and what not, and likely a huge "punitive" fine and a lot of money for the settlement the guy is really moving the local economy.
Every city needing money should prepare a set up and invite him for a quick(y) visit. /sarc
rrrooowwww! got claws, too? (sarcasm ON baby, ON!)
This is a guy who early on was a member of France's communist party and since 1970 of their socialist party.
Despite this he is a billionaire and throws away money on $3000 per night hotels and $15 million apartments like it's nothing. Amazing.
he isn't exactly a billionaire. he is married to one, works for others. the hotel was a business expense and the apartment his wife's.
He's a maid man.
With a little HIV problem, though.
Someone got a nice commissh.
Come on, admit it. "We all want a wife like that, though."
Some would settle for servicing someone's wife like that.
actually i was thinking more along the lines of "she buys me a huge house after i'm accused of doing something VERY illegal. Involving another women no less! But i'm with ya' man.
Austerity bitchez!
Yeah, he'll definitely have to cough up for some blinds.
indeed. the universal recommendation of the banks: cut wages/social services/pensions/currency exchange rates but keep paying our vigorish makes a nice counterpoint to the unfolding dsk story.
Damn, crime does pay!
However, I feel he was set-up. I don't like him, but I feel the powers behind the throne knew his weakness and exploited it. Still, nice dig's, Fucker!
A set-up? Nice trick getting his DNA samples all over the maid and the room. I think the whole thing comes down to the maids manager. If the manager were more politically astute, this whole thing would have been quitely swept under the rug and never to be spoken of.
Damn, crime does pay!

How did her daddy get rich? Let me guess ketchup?
Some thoughts..
Place is so big they will definitely need at least 2 maids. They will probably be Irish though.
So that means that there is $14.5MM less that Greece, Portugal, or..Zimbabwe gets?
Seems like he could have paid the maid to have a change of heart for a lot less than the price of this humble abode. Actually I am surprised she hasn't found a new residence on St Barts by now, followed by failing to appear for her testimony.
Flashing through these comments is the distinct absence of feeling that the vast majority don't express their willingness to immediately swap their miserable lives for his ...just don't get near the pretty girl leg trap.
too many negatives for clarity.
Just goes to show justice is blind unless you have the money to take the blindfold off and fuck it. What a fucking sham-- and a disgusting turn of events-- if he doesn't (and this goes to all his kind out there that currently operate behind these failed institutions) get justice here, they will get justice at somepoint for their crimes against humanity.
You are completely correct. It is just a joke. What a joke.
justice is based on who you are not what you did, all too frequently.
His wife may be facing some legal troubles of her own. During the course of their investigation they searched her home in Paris and discovered substances illegal in France: mouthwash, deoderant and shampoo.
so much for a communist....wheres the equality here??
Noteworthy... DSK picked-on a unionized housekeeper. His IMF is a union-strangler in its "austerity" enslavment remedies to preserve oligarchs.
ServiceEmployeesInternationalUnion [SEIU] reps housekeepers at Sofitel and is contracturally bound to support and handle outrages against its members.
Sarcozy is America's first French Puppet - DSK was set up by the USA coz they were scared he'd beat Sarcozy in the elections - don't you lot get it?
Exactly . Lagarde's big head posse smacked USA's DSK.
Rudy and Bernie come to mind into the global space launched by the towers fall...and go.
All he had to do was to quit his job at the IMF. Now he can keep on living like he used to. :)
I'm missing the helicopter landing place!
Or is it just next door?
First the German hooking the Dutch for right-wing election victory; now the French hooking the Belgian for Socialist Government (oops, somebody just lost a Presidential candidate)... and Franklin St., glad I didn't move in... But somebody moved out, oh yes she did.
Quite frankly, the corrupted French regime is visible in President Sarkozy's iterations. French corporate culture does rink of affairs with hidden objectives. I've had enough of that. But perhaps there is no other way of getting laid so would you so kindly send a good American my way? Thank you.
The design of the house is a bit small minded !
