Is the Head of the IMF a Sex Criminal?

tossed the IMF into chaos and endangered the agency’s efforts to stabilize the European debt crisis.

Thank for posting an article that agree with me that this arrest had thrown the IMF into chaos and greatly reduce it abilities to help handle an economic crisis that the welfare of tens of millions or more men, women and children depend on the outcome of.

Did you not take note of that gem bury in the **** of attacking a man because he happen to be wealthy unlike his accuser.

Of course his accuser is likely to become wealthy herself beyond any dream she might had of wealth at least if her three lawyers can arrange such a payday.

firefly's post also supports my assertion that what happened here was a misunderstanding about consent caused in part by cultural differences.

This stopped being "a woman's word against a man's" once they lodged criminal charges against him. His accuser is now the state of NY. And, it is NYS that is formally accusing him of a sexual assault "by forcible compulsion"--meaning they have forensic evidence to support the element of physical force.

Non!" requiring the man to use physical force to restrain her in order to achieve sexual contact, do the French take that as an indication of "consent"? What DSK is accused of doing would also be illegal in France.

In NYS, sexual assaults committed by "forcible compulsion" presume the absense of consent.

Playing words games as it is her word they are going on to level the charges and no one else so it is indeed her word against his on what happen or did not happen in that hotel room as no agent of the state happen to had been there that I am aware of.

Hawkeye she seem to be wishing once more to take the whips and the chains out of your bedroom.

She may be the key witness, but the state must present other evidence, and other witnesses

So no man had been convicted in New York State on the word of woman alone or that there is some requirements in New York Law that demand other types of evidence?

What another side bet that I can find cases where the man had been convicted on a woman word alone in New York State?

Bill, oft times the other "evidence" is second hand accounts of the words or actions of the alleged victim

This never was a "he said/she said" case--that was a simplistic assumption on your part. This isn't a "date rape" case with no force involved. DSK is charged with violent felonies, by NYS, and the state must prove that the acts he committed involved physical force.

Where the trial involved only one witness for the prosecution?

I wonder if this case fall apart if all the rallies in this "victim" support will strangely disappear off youtube...

And if the State has no witnesses and if Ophelia has no bodily injury then all the state has is her assertions. It is he said/she said.

-where he locks a door, makes a sudden grab for the woman or chases her, tries to force an assault, etc.

Then they would not have charged him with violent felonies, because it would have been impossible for them to support those charges at trial. This is not a he said/she said situation

When there is no DNA and it is a stranger rape men had been convicted on the IDing of the woman alone.

Oh they surely did overcharge him in my opinion to give them room for a plea bargain however that is a side issue

If the defense hints that it is "out of character" for DSK to commit such an assault, they open the door to allowing testimony about past assaultive actions toward women.

The laws under which DSK is charged are gender neutral.

And, it is NYS that is formally accusing him of a sexual assault "by forcible compulsion"--meaning they have forensic evidence to support the element of physical force.
