| Dominique Strauss-Kahn: IMF head 'hired prostitutes from Manhattan madam' |
| 2011-05-19 |
| Dominique Strauss-Kahn hired prostitutes from the "Manhattan Madam" who infamously also served Eliot Spitzer, the disgraced former Governor of New York, she claimed on Wednesday night. Kristin Davis said she provided young women for the IMF chief in 2006, as he ran for the French Socialists' presidential nomination, and that one complained about his "aggressive" behaviour. "He was a client of my agency," she told The Daily Telegraph. "When men abuse women I'm no longer going to protect their identities". Mr Strauss-Kahn, 62, has been charged with sexually attacking a 32-year-old hotel maid at the Manhattan Sofitel on Saturday. He denies the claims and is being held in Rikers Island prison. Miss Davis, 35, who claims to have a long list of celebrity clients, said Mr Strauss-Kahn called her directly on her mobile phone and paid $1,200 cash for two-hour sessions in hotel rooms. "He wanted an 'All-American girl', with a fresh face, from the mid-West," she said. "A girl in January 2006 complained he was rough and angry, and said she didn't want to see him again". |

| #10 I've seen speculation that a costumed professional had been ordered, and the poor man was confused when the real thing showed up first. I think this is extremely likely. The whole thing is like a Kohen Brother's film. |

| #9 Anon1, what bieber did with satan to get famous is not out because, quite literally, people would fall dead. If he is a professional of professionals, easy mistake I guess. Perhaps him and Gore could hang out. Kind of a piker in the big world, a UN boss would have had a 10 year old boy in a maid outfit. |

| #5 I think you pay them first, and even when a pro says no, it's no. |

| #4 I've seen speculation that a costumed professional had been ordered, and the poor man was confused when the real thing showed up first. It would be interesting if that turns out to be his defense in trial. |

| #3 remember: CNN = Client Number Nine don't let them rehabilitate that asshole via the down-the-memory-hole trick. They have yet to mention Spitzer in their coverage of DSK, Arnold, etc..... |

| #1 the chimp on heat had the grace to pay for it, he should have continued instead of taking it by force. Why do rich, powerful men, feel turned on at the thought of taking advantage of (or just impregnating) poor US maids just working a humble job for a living? two in a week. different circumstances but both targetted by rich men. of course in Arnie's case it was civilised affair not attempted rape unlike that frenchman with the girly name |
