Disgraced Former IMF Chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn Set to be Released on Own Recognizance After Maid Caught in Numerous Lies

REPORT: Disgraced former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn is set to be released on his own recognizance after the prosecutors have uncovered a web of lies from his accuser, a West African Sofitel maid, who accused him of sexual assault. It is a sad day for victims of sexual assault on the grounds that this woman's alleged web of lies has set women back.

UPDATE#1: The New York Post is reporting that the maid may have worked as a prostitute. This is the lynching of this woman's character.

The Sofitel housekeeper who claims the former IMF boss sexually assaulted her in his room was doing double duty as a prostitute, collecting cash on the side from male guests, The Post has learned.

The woman also had "a lot of her expenses -- hair braiding, salon expenses -- paid for by men not related to her," the source said.

Prosecutors said the woman lied to a grand jury by testifying she immediately alerted a supervisor about the assault. The maid actually cleaned a neighboring suite on the 28th floor and then scrubbed Strauss-Kahn's room before she reported the incident to her boss.

Twenty-eight hours after the alleged sexual assault, the woman talked to her boyfriend in an immigration jail in Arizona -- saying "words to the effect of, 'Don't worry, this guy has a lot of money. I know what I'm doing,' " The New York Times quoted an official saying.
