Prosecutors are reportedly set to ask a judge to abandon the case against Dominique Strauss Kahn. Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance is preparing to ask that all charges against the former head of the IMF accused of attempting to rape hotel maid Nafissatou Diallo are dropped Tuesday.

Such requests from the DA 'are never denied', an expert told the New York Post meaning Strauss-Kahn could finally return to his home country after being forced to remian in the U.S for months.

I consider him a scummoid too; all I do know is that being an a$$hole is no justification for him to be convicted if he is innocent. I’m a little testy about being falsely accused since I have had my brushes with idiots saying all sorts of all and sundry about me.

“The guy might be total scum, but she is worse. “

This could not have turned out better! Two scum balls with one shot! Since Strauss-Kahn has been a stalker his whole life, it’s fitting that one of his number has been able to bring him down. France can do a whole lot better.

Actually you’re quite right about that, when I think about it. It’s the biggest irony of all really in the end.

To: Revolting cat!

the accused male is presumed to be guilty...”There was an article in the WSJ a couple of days ago about instructions to that effect from Obambi’s Dept. of Education to all colleges accepting Federal aid (in practice almost all colleges and universities in the country.)”

I think there was a case where the accuser was criminally charged, the accused was not, yet the university sided with her and punished the accused!

IIRC, Michael Savage called this one pretty much from the get go

Were you listening when the hotel maid called in and said this was a common scam among "housekeepers" in NYC? It was when the lynch mob was riding high. She could barely speak English, but she had it pegged when the "intelligentsia" (Left & Right) were 95% full of it.

And so at long last we will bid adieu to Monsieur Rutting Chimpanzee. Could he be persuaded to take Ms. Diallo with him? French wives are infinitely understanding of that sort of thing.

Why men, who have so much to lose, do this is beyond me.

It’s not like there aren’t enough ‘services’ that provide this sort of thing, minus the threat of a lawsuit or charges. Why do this? He was close to leaving for France and then possibly running for office in France. When will these men learn that each time they are unfaithful, consensual even, they are putting everything they have at risk. They don’t just ruin their own reputations and lives, but that of their family as well. There are more than enough movies out there about crazy mistresses attacking the wife and they often have these perfect, beautiful wives who are highly accomplished and madly in love with them. They have it all, everything. After Clinton, I am amazed at how they still ruin their lives the way they do.

Dominique Strauss-Kahn is a life long SOCIALIST! The last thing France , or any country needs is a Socialist and his SOCIALIST PARTY running it.
DSK is not innocent. DSK is a serial sexual predator with a long and documented history of harassment and sexual abuse and attempted rape of women in France.
This is Free Republic - we support conservatives here, not Socialists! Are you sure you are posting your Socialist propaganda on the right site? I’m sure you would be more than welcome at DU or Daily Kos.
