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.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 1:17pmYou 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.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 12:28pmThe 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!

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.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 9:37amI 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.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 9:24amMy 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?

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 8:48amThis 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.
