Kristin Davis: Manhattan Madam 'who supplied Dominique Strauss-Kahn with escorts'
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/dominique-strauss-kahn/8522582/Kristin-Davis-Manhattan-Madam-who-supplied-Dominique-Strauss-Kahn-with-escorts.html

<snip>

On Thursday, she claimed she provided women for Dominique Strauss-Kahn the IMF chief in New York in 2006, as he ran for the Socialist French presidential candidacy.

She said Mr Strauss-Kahn had called her personally on her mobile phone and paid $1,200 cash for two-hour sessions in hotel rooms.

In a book published in 2009, titled The Manhattan Madam, she detailed her rise from a California trailer park, in Fresno, to her life of riches in New York.

She graduated from high school at 15 and holds a BA in Business and Master's in Psychology.

1. interesting. so my scenario about dsk asking the concierge to get him a hooker
isn't that far off at all.

lol.

so here it is: knowing dsk patronizes prostitutes....

but wait, rape is the kind of sex rapists like. they don't patronize prostitutes.

2. So did he order a hooker dressed as a hotel housekeeper?
The guy had a reputation. AND there has been report of another woman he attacked and who wasn't retained for services.

15. The guy said he was at lunch with his daughter....
and that fell apart so now he's saying it was consensual. As much of a horndog as he is don't you think he'd go ahead and say "I thought she was my hooker?"

17. No, they will not go that route.
The defense is more likely to be "she came on to me and then feigned being disgusted when it went as far as it did."

They will likely try to dredge up a background, particularly financial, to show that she is after his money as is typical in these kinds of cases.

He will lose so bad that it is actually quite hilarious that people are still, after all of the evidence we have heard about so far, coming to his aid with bizarre "counterpoints."

16. The only counterpoint you have provided so far makes no sense with the defense's claims.

19. I actually had a similar notion, but I threw it out when I realized how assault is in his history.
He's known for sexual assault.
