What was former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn up to on the weekend he was arrested for sexually assaulting a hotel worker? Why, just "[blowing] off steam before the French presidential race" by having sex with three women!

According to the New York Times, there is security footage of former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn at his hotel in the early hours of May 14, the day he allegedly sexually assaulted a maid. And he was accompanied by an unidentified woman.

Rich and poor, French and American, innocent and guilty, we all sometimes have a little bit of trouble with our keys sometimes. Most of us don't, however, have a troop of photographers willing to help you jiggle the lock a little bit—as former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn did in Tribeca.

This past weekend, the New York Post branded the maid who accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of rape "A HOOKER," based on a single anonymous source, who said it was so. Now, she is suing them for libel. Makes sense.

Writer Tristane Banon will bring attempted-rape charges against former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn over a 2002 incident. Banon's mother, a Socialist Party politician, convinced her not to file charges at the time; Banon first made the allegations publicly in 2007.

Not content with calling the hotel maid accusing former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn of rape a whore just the once, the New York Post has doubled down on its charge that she worked as a prostitute. And this time, they've got another single, anonymous source... from the prosecution!

Upon finding out that the woman accusing former IMF chief Dominique Strauss Kahn of rape lied to a grand jury about the events following her alleged assault, the New York Post surely realized that such a complicated case required cautious, nuanced coverage. Like, say, today's front-page article: "DSK MAID A HOOKER."

Former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn has been released from house arrest without bail, after revelations that his accuser might be so unreliable that the case won't hold up.

The case against former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn is on the verge of falling apart. Prosecutors investigating charges that he raped a hotel maid in mid-May have found major holes in the woman's story, as well as "possible links to criminal activities, including drug dealing and money laundering," the New York Times reports.

French finance minister Christine Lagarde has been selected to lead the rather busy IMF, the AP reports. She replaces Dominique Strauss-Kahn, another Frenchy who resigned after allegedly forcing a hotel maid to do strange sex things with him.

According to one of Dominique Strauss-Kahn's lawyers, just after the alleged incident with a hotel maid the Frenchman had lunch with his daughter in Manhattan. Now the Times has the details. It seems that DSK and his daughter ate at McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurant on West 52nd Street — a chain restaurant. How uncivilized.

The Manhattan district attorney's office yesterday filed a transcript of 17 statements made by Dominique Strauss-Kahn during and after his arrest on sexual assault charges last month. The Times has details of the statement, a voluntary disclosure form, that should be presented to defense attorneys. So, what were DSK's first hours in custody like? It took him a little while to really figure out what was going on:

Former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn was formally charged today in the State Supreme Court in Manhattan for allegedly attempting to rape a hotel maid last month. He pleaded "Not Guilty." The next hearing will be July 18th, so the stage is set for the perfect midsummer media shit-storm.

Tribecan patio decorator and ex-IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn will be arraigned Monday on charges related to his alleged attempt to rape a hotel maid, say reports. Sources believe he'll claim that "police irregularities" messed up his arrest. Speaking of that, did you know he was "arrested like a chicken thief?"

If you haven't been reading the New York Post's coverage of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, well, then you really should be. The DSK story was tailor made for the Post: Snooty, filthy rich Frenchman allegedly sexually assaults a hotel maid in AMERICA. How does that sit with your Freedom Fries?

As former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn spruces up his $50,000 a month Tribeca townhouse with the finest, Kevlar-reinforced patio umbrellas money can buy, we bring you yet another disturbing report of an arrest in connection with an alleged sex attack on a Manhattan luxury hotel worker by an international financier.

The Post reports that bourgeois former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn had some patio umbrellas delivered to his $50,000 per month townhouse in Tribeca. So French. This can only mean one thing: He's hiding something!

There are not any funny jokes to be made about alleged sexual assault. On the other hand, this 2009 photo of alleged sexual assaulter Dominique Strauss-Kahn meeting the Obamas is pretty funny, now. Ace job with the gentle restraint there, Prez. Because you know that Dominique Strauss-Kahn! Always (allegedly) goin' nuts around the ladies (unless a court of law determines otherwise).

Under house arrest and awaiting trial for the alleged sexual assault of a chambermaid, Dominique Strauss-Kahn is living in a three-story TriBeCa townhouse. Before Strauss-Kahn moved in, the townhouse was used as a venue for corporate parties. I went to one! (You didn't think I partied there with him, did you? Way too dangerous.)

Dominique Strauss-Kahn is on the move in Manhattan! (Did you see his cameo on the Glee finale? It was in that scene in Sardi's.) Out on $1 million cash bail and $5 million bond and desperately in need of a place to crash, the former IMF head and accused sexual assaulter has already fled the stilletto-hurling mobs of the Upper East Side and Downtown.
