First we have the writer saying:

France's leading presidential candidate may have pounced on a Manhattan hotel maid -- but she wanted it, his lawyer asserted in court yesterday, hinting at what could be an explosive defense.

Hinting at? If the lawyer said anything like "she wanted it" that's hardly a hint. But did the lawyer say anything like that? The quote from the lawyer is:

"The evidence, we believe, will not be consistent with a forcible encounter," said Ben Brafman, the high-powered lawyer of IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, at the suspect's sensational arraignment in a packed criminal courtroom.

anonymous source. not the lawyers. alleged to be "close".
