The New York Media is having a party at the expense of the jailed head of the IMF. The french socialist contends that the sex with the hotel maid was consensual. DSK has been convicted by the Press and public opinion. His innocence is a foregone conclusion, for the millionaire has a history of aggressive behavior toward women.
Back in 2002 the career politician attempted to rape a young reporter in Paris. She had arranged to meet DSK for an interview. Here is her account of what happened on that night.
“He asked for us to meet, and gave me an address I didn’t know. That was surprising because I know a little bit about his life, more or less, where he lives, where his offices are. … But this was nothing of the sort.
I came up in front of the building, parked my car, went up, and it was an empty apartment, completely empty, with a VCR, a TV and a bed. A very beautiful apartment, for a Gentleman of good taste. … He wanted me to hold his hand while he answered, he said “I can’t do it if you don’t hold my hand.” After the hand, it was the arm, and after the arm it was a bit further, so I stopped him. …
It ended very badly, because we ended up fighting … I told him clearly. … We fought on the ground, it was more than a couple of slaps, I kicked him, he opened my bra, tried to open my jeans. … It finished very badly. …
I got out of there and he immediately sent me a text message saying “So, are you scared of me?” … I had said the word “rape” when we were struggling to scare him, and it didn’t seem to scare him, as if he was used to it. After [the incident] he wouldn’t stop sending me text messages saying “Are you scared of me?”
The French newspapers and TV ignored this story. DSK used the power of his position. The chapter on DSK was dropped by her publisher and her mother asked her daughter to drop any criminal proceedings against DSK in fear of losing her position with the ranks of French Socialism. The mother approached DSK, who apologized saying, “I lost my head.”
More like he was looking for head.
Last night at Frank’s Lounge the verdict was 90% for guilty, although Pacco didn’t think that DSK would serve any time.
“He’s a rich man. Rich people get off with murder.”
“Just like OJ Simpson.” I added from my stool.
“Why you white people always got to bring up OJ.”
“Because guilty or not guilty OJ got off with murder and for once in America a black man was able to buy justice.”
OJ didn’t learn his lesson. A jury found him not guilty of killing his wife. Trouble followed him down the road and in 2008 OJ was convicted of armed robbery. The Juice won’t see freedom until 2017. His address for the foreseeable future is Lovelock Correctional Center, Nevada.
DSK will probably get off somehow. Rich people are lucky that way, but the judge and jury might see DSK in a different light and teach him a lesson that he should have learned a long time ago.
When a woman says ‘no’, it means ‘no’.
