It was in Room 2806, at $3000 a night luxury suite 1 at this hotel behind me where the alleged 2 incident took place Saturday. Arraignment 3 set later this morning for Dominique Strauss-Kahn, a man who just 2 days ago was in charge of the world's most powerful financial institution, this morning, instead of navigating 4 through Europe debt crisis, he will be trying to navigate 5 through the US court system.
Once seen as a legitimate 6 contender to be France's next president, Dominique Strauss-Kahn wore a skull 7 and new handcuffs last night, charged with 3 crimes:
Attempted rape 8, criminal sex act and unlawful imprisonment 9.
As he was driven to a New York hospital for forensic 10 testing. His attorneys addressed the charges.
He intends to vigorously defend these charges and he denies any wrongdoing.
Hours earlier, he was identified in a police lineup by a hotel housekeeper 11 who says he sexually assaulted her Saturday afternoon inside this hotel suite. Police say at 1 p.m. Saturday, a hotel housekeeper entered Room 2806 of the Sofitel, Manhattan. A luxury $3000 per-night multi-room suite. Inside, 62-year-old Strauss-Kahn allegedly came out of the bathroom, naked, chased her through those rooms, forced her to perform sex act and tried to tear off her underwear. She escaped and notified hotel staff who immediately called the police. In the room, police found his cellphone. He left in a hurry but called the hotel, asking for the phone to be brought to him at JFK. The New York Police Department gave that information to Port Authority police of JFK Airport. And just as doors were closing for takeoff,they boarded the plane and arrested him. Strauss-Kahn lives with his American-born wife, Anne Sinclair, his third wife at this home in Washington. She is one of France's most prominent television journalists. And it's not the first time allegations of sexual escapades have surfaced. In 2002, a French journalist claimed she had to fight him off while interviewing him for a book she was writing.
Here she says, it ended really badly because we got into a fight. And it ended quite violently because I clearly told him, but real violent, you know, not just a slap in the face. We really actually fought each other. I kicked him and he unhooked my bra. He tried unzipping my jeans.
And in 2008, the married father of four had an affair with a fellow economist 12, earning him the nickname: the great seducer 13.
Today his wife is standing 14 by her man. In a statement, she says she doesn't believe the accusations 15 and that "I have no doubt his innocence 16 will be established."
Incidentally Strauss-Kahn's wife came to his defence, following the revelation of that affair with a subordinate back in 2008. George, we hear she is on her way to New York from their home in Paris to once again stand by her man.
