Dominique Strauss-Kahn Has Changed His Story--Claims it was "Consenual."
Edited on Tue May-17-11 09:49 AM by msanthrope
Read the whole Post story--DSK's lawyer isn't claiming set-up--merely that


"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.

And here's the shredding of the alibi--


Security video shows Strauss-Kahn leaving his room at 12:28 p.m., and "he appeared to be a man who was in a hurry," Alonzo said. He then met his daughter for lunch. "He had lunch at 12:45 p.m., so it's not an alibi," said a source close to the defense. "At the same time, he made a series of phone calls conducting business as usual. This business of him running out of the hotel is horses- - t."

After lunch, Strauss-Kahn hopped into in a rented black car to JFK for a 4:40 p.m. Air France flight to Paris,

Along the way, he called his wife to tell her he had a "serious problem," French media reported.

1. Hmmmm, his story seemed to change as soon as his
lawyers got word that there is indeed video tape of him leaving the hotel.

10. Funny--once there was tape of him leaving at 12:28, the alibi was shredded, eh?

I'm betting once the DNA tests happen, he claims---

1) I paid her.

or

2) She wanted me.

or

3) She's a crazy Moooslim radical in a headscarf, trapping me....

8. Of course he has. There is likely DNA evidence in addition to security videos
A consensual sex defense is the only way he has any shot of getting away with it.

15. What happened to leaving the phone behind?
The first reports aid he had left it at the hotel -- wait, he probably had more than one. One for business and family, the other for funny business.

21. Actually, it seems more convoluted than that--
He called the hotel, looking for a cellphone he left behind.

At that point, the NYPD detectives told the hotel staff to tell him that they had the phone, and that they would deliver it to him--where was he?

DSK told them, and the NYPD sent the cops to pull him off the plane.

I don't know if he did leave a cell phone--or, if he was calling the hotel to see if there were any problems. I've heard of cliens that stupid...

18. DSK is delusional
I know pushing an Oreck all day, scrubbing toilets, and picking up others dirty kleenexes always gets me aroused. Who needs a lunch break to rest my aching back and put my swollen feet up for a while? Heck, I think I'll give that grotesque rich naked man a blow job! Yeah, I'm SURE that is how it went down. :sarcasm:

19. what the security video shows
is that the first stories about the incident happening around 1 p.m. were false. Funny how this is now twisted into proving "the shredding of the alibi", LOL.

"The New York Police Department arrested Mr. Strauss-Kahn at 2:15 a.m. Sunday “on charges of criminal sexual act, attempted rape, and an unlawful imprisonment in connection with a sexual assault on a 32-year-old chambermaid in the luxury suite of a Midtown Manhattan hotel yesterday” about 1 p.m., Deputy Commissioner Paul J. Browne, the department’s chief spokesman, said."

22. Jerry Seinfeld: "why are men attracted to chamber-maids?"
"Because they're women, and they're in your room."

I realize rape is not joking matter though.
