Berlusconi to Minor He Had Sex With: 'I'll cover you in gold ... just don't say anything'
ROME All we knew of Ruby was that she stole Silvio Berlusconis heart. But according to leaked telephone conversations published on Monday, she also took quite a lot of money from him to lie about their relationship.
Karima El-Marough, better known as Ruby the Heart-Stealer, is a Moroccan-born dancer who, according to prosecutors in Milan, had sex with the former Italian prime minister for money when she was still a minor. Its a crime which could land Berlusconi in prison for up to three years.
So far El-Marough has denied having had sex with Berlusconi, although she did admit to having received thousands of euros from him. Berlusconi has claimed to have given money to her and other women as gifts to help out, but according to leaked telephone conversations between and her friends, that money was meant to buy her silence.

I am sort of editorializing...prosecutors say he had sex with her as a minor...seems to me he did.
