DSK Case File Said to be Dropped Behind Radiator, Ignored
We’ll learn more this morning but apparently the case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn is to be dropped. According to the New York Post, this is because his accuser has had… “questionable personal relationships”? (Uh, me too?) And was a “liar.” According to the Times, “One law enforcement official involved in the investigation said no single problematic detail about Ms. Diallo’s background, or even all of them put together, had undermined the prosecution’s faith in its ability to present a viable case” — but that the department felt they couldn’t put her forward as a viable witness. If the motion the DA’s office files today resembles this patchwork of weird character/witness issues — and it should contain something more substantial than all this — then I’m not really sure what the point in having a DA is? What a mess: this freakshow was mismanaged by all parties, except apparently the people whose full-time job it was to leak things to the press. Those people should get a raise!
