History In The Making
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) since 2007, in the hands of the New York Police today after a New York Hotel Housekeeping Employee accused the 62-year old of chasing her down the Hotel hallway, naked, and attempting to sexually assault her.
The Hotel employee picked Strauss-Kahn out of a police lineup shortly after he was arrested.
Dominique Strauss-Kahn was the former Finance Minister of France, and many considered him to be a potential candidate for French presidency. Unfortunately he was accused by many of corruption when leaving his position in 1999.. His career has been filled with indiscretions, while in such a high-profile position, thus granting him the nickname “The Hot Rabbit“. Strauss-Kahn reportedly had an affair with a Senior Executive at the IMF shortly after he began his position there. Strauss-Kahn is married, in his 3rd marriage, and is the father of four daughters. Dominique also has a PH.D in Economics and holds a Law Degree.
The Housekeeping Employee alleges that she was cleaning the luxury $3,000 a night suite around 1 p.m. Saturday and thought she was alone. She says Strauss-Kahn then emerged from the bedroom naked, and begun to try and force himself on her. She then ran down the hallway of the suite to escape, but he ran after her and continued to try and force himself on her in the bathroom. He tried to remove her underwear, but she got away.
The employee immediately ran to the Hotel front desk and reported the incident. The Hotel then notified the New York Police Department. Police arrived on the scene, and Strauss-Kahn had already fled the scene, leaving his cell phone behind. It was known that he was set to be on a plane to France, so NYPD contacted the New York Port Authority and requested they hold the plane.
Two plain-clothed police officers boarded the plane just before the door closed and found Strauss-Kahn seated in first class. It is reported that he offered “no resistance” and is now in Police custody.
His legal team gave no comment as to whether or not his Diplomatic Immunity would honor him in such a charge.
Matchmakers carry a lot more liabilities these days
A California woman, who chooses to remain anonymous other than revealing she is an Executive in the Entertainment Industry, is suing Match.com after she claims she was sexually assaulted by a man she met online. She is now suing the company and demanding they create a stronger screening process to prevent such events from occurring again.
The woman claims she met Alan Wurtzel online on Match.com, who has been previously convicted six separate times for sexual battery. The two met at Urth Cafe, a popular restaurant in West Hollywood on Melrose blvd, and she said he seemed charming and from a good and prominent family.
But peril began after a second date, in which the woman claims Wurtzel followed her home, and sexually assaulted her in her own home. Wurtzel claims the sex was consensual and has plead not guilty on 2 felony charges against him stemming from the incident. His trial begins April 26th.
Attorney for Robert Platt had this to say about the incident:
“We don’t have their Social Security numbers. It would create so many problems by trying to get background information on all these people,”
A statement like that reminds me a lot of what Southwest Airlines had to say about pushing off routine government mandated inspections on their plane. They said it would cause a “significant burden” to adhere to those standards.
I guess we’re starting to see what the minds of our Corporations are really concerned with, and it definitely isn’t the people who spend money in their direction.
