Former IMF Head: “I Only Had 12 Sex Parties In Three Years” (ZeroHedge, Feb 10, 2015):

Ex-IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn (DSK) – who denies charges of pimping – has told a court in northern France that prosecutors had greatly exaggerated the frequency of his “licentious evenings.” In fact, as The BBC reports, DSK explained (with a straight face) that he took part in only a few rare sex parties – “only 12 parties the last 3 years.”

As The BBC reports,

Mr Strauss-Kahn is accused of helping procure sex workers for a prostitution ring based at a hotel in Lille.

He has argued that he did not know the women were prostitutes.

Although using prostitutes is not illegal in France, supplying them or assisting in supplying them is. Prosecutors have been quoted as saying Mr Strauss-Kahn, 65, played a pivotal role in facilitating the orgies, describing him as the “party king”.

If found guilty, the one-time potential candidate for the French presidency could face up to 10 years in jail and a €1.5m (£1.13m) fine.

As he took the stand on Tuesday, Mr Strauss-Kahn said: “I committed no crime, no offence.”

“The prosecution gives the impression of unbridled activity,” he told the court. But, he added: “There were only 12 parties in total – that is four per year over three years.”

Mr Strauss-Kahn also denied organising the parties he took part in.

“I am in no way the organiser of these parties. I did not have the time to organise any party,” he said.

“He did it for fun. We had some lovely evenings,” he told French radio earlier, adding that five or six couples would be involved.

As he arrived in court in Lille earlier, three topless protesters from the Femen activist group jumped on his car, with “pimps, clients, guilty” painted on their chests. They were taken away by police.

Two other cases against him, concerning allegations of sexual assault and gang rape, have already been dropped.

One wonders whether DSK looked away as this happened…
