Crime

Source: Prosecution Will Drop Case Against Former IMF Head Strauss-Kahn

Jul. 5, 2011 8:19am Jonathon M. Seidl

Strauss-Kahn leaves the Manhattan State Supreme Court after being freed from house arrest.

A “top investigator” in the rape case against former International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn has reportedly told the New York Post that the charges against the Frenchman will be dropped. This comes after he was released from custody without bail last week, when prosecutors learned his accuser had some inconsistencies in her story.

“We all know this case is not sustainable,” the source told The Post.

“Her credibility is so bad now, we know we cannot sustain a case with her,” the source added. “She is not to be believed in anything that comes out of her mouth — which is a shame, because now we may never know what happened in that hotel room.”

“Did [Strauss-Kahn] use force? Was there actually a crime? I don’t think we’ll ever know.”

The accuser is a Guinean hotel maid who has accused Strauss-Kahn of a violent sexual attack in a swanky New York hotel. As a result of the accusations, he lost his job as head of the IMF.

Read the full story from the New York Post.

This was the battle of the dinkleberries. A trashy rich socialist on one side and a POS whore on the other. Put the both in jail for 10 years so we will be rid of their carcasses for a while.

You know, it might be nice if our media would not be allowed to publish anything concerning crime & punishment till the court cases are complete (I think Canada does this). That way, if someone is innocent his or her life isn’t completely destroyed. I’m not saying this guy was innocent but think about what happened here.

The guy is a serial pig, charged with rape in France. Probably a resume enhancer in Europe. Now lets address the woman, is she legal? Why was she admitted to become a prostitute! Launder drug money. What is wrong with immigration profiling.?

The truth is clear….Media reports on the ******** they are fed…part of the masses still believe it, many know what it and call it for what it is. The world goes round as a Chicago favor is finally paid back…..The IMF fund is now still in control of its destiny with a new clown (Legarde) at the head.Kahn is already rich and has been paid off for the stunt as well as the maid who was aid off and will continue to hide in the shadows. This whole deal was engineered by the powerbrokers who are running the sham we call politics wordwide. It’s always about the power..or the money….PERIOD!

“Did [Strauss-Kahn] use force? Was there actually a crime? I don‘t think we’ll ever know.”

Spread enough money around in the offices of the prosecutor and throughout the police department, and what do you know? Old Dominique is home free! Good old New York.

Not all the fish in the market are fresh. Something is wrong here? Question is what. Why so fast to accuse and condemn? And the replacement is from Chicago??? There is a lot more somebody is not telling us.

I believe they set this guy up in favor of the more favorable Christine Lagarde who is connected from her employment at a large Chicago Law firm in the 1980′s. She became a partner in the firm and opened a London based partnership of the firm under the same name. Lagarde represents a more refined, innovative, diabolical Ajenda 21 minded Socialist. DSK is old school and maybe wasn’t completely on the script . She served at the US Capital as a congressional assistant at one point also. CONNECTIONS….NOTHING happens by chance with these people. EVERYTHING has a reason and a purpose. The Obama administration is giving her the big thumbs up!! That should warrant caution in itself.

  flfsh. i just shake my head in wonder. the corruption in our system, the entire system, is so great that nothing short of extreme violence is going to change it. the quote that “the tree of liberty has to be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots” was never more appropriate.

Folks. all this thingy was/is about musical power chair in the NWO/OWG/World Governance Cabal.
The IMF, like the Fed Reserve are the playthings of this Cabal.
The Western World citizenry, especially US are here only for the purpose of funding all these One World institutions.
Soo. Just shut the hell up. This stuff is none of our concerns. Just keep paying ourr taxes so these people can continue to further enslave US.
Got It.

Dear FBI,
Please send me a list of all women who have criminal records, unsavory backgrounds, or a history of perjury so I can force them to have sex with me anytime I want because obviously “YOU CAN’T RAPE A WOMAN WITH AN UNSAVORY BACKGROUND”.
This French clown has just received the best justice MONEY CAN BUY!

  My thoughts exactly. I thought the whole court system went through this “it must be the womans fault because she has a shady past” thing in the 80′s. Where is the ACLU, NOW, or the other rights groups. What a blatantly open and transparent con job. Makes you proud, doesn’t it?

This is just to convenient, close to French elections, New IMF chief being in Chicago, something always smelled and the odor is getting worse-remember this happened here, in the U.S.A. Many tiny things make one big question-WHY? Who wanted this man disgraced and removed and out of elections? Who benifits? There is more to come here I think.

I believe the whole thing was a setup to get a new IMF Chief, one that is from Chicago.

  The maid will simply disappear. Now that her role in this little takedown is over she is of no use to the powers behind this. I suspect we won’t be hearing anything from her again.

  HE STILL HAS TO ADDRESS THE DNA FOUND IN THE HOTEL ROOM AND ON HER SKIRT:
  
  Whether they drop it or not they have to address the items that have already come up that aren’t influence by her claims: http://tiny.cc/e1qdf

  Hope Kahn sues everyone involved including the media. Certainly the hotel and agency the maid works for, as she has no money.
