Dominique Strauss-Kahn was released on Friday in the case known as the Carlton in Lille, where he was prosecuted for aggravated procuring. The grounds of the judgment are extremely severe against the instruction.
Bernard Lemaire took his time. But in just over two hours, the president of the criminal court hearing the case in Lille Carlton destroyed three years meticulously examining and 247 pages of removal order. In the preamble to the reading of the judgment of 147 pages, he emphasized the “complexity of the case” , the “media impact” , since “the court Desired publicly explain his judgment “, he will start. And then over the reading, words and for the judgment have been made increasingly harsh and severe for instruction, his “inaccuracies “, absences “verification facts “ ” confrontations “ and ” false statements audits “. More than once we felt the irritation of the president before it considers this work between sloppy lines.
The room holds its breath
It is 12:30 when the president called to the bar Dominique Strauss-Kahn. President marks a moment of silence, he knows that the room also retains his breath. The Strauss-Kahn warned stands straight, hands folded before him. Believed to have been the “central pivot” meetings with prostitutes between 2008 and 2011 in Lille, Paris, Brussels and Washington, he has always denied being the source of the ” thin parts “ in which he participated, adding that he never suspected the quality of the participants.
However, “This case should never have existed without Dominique Strauss-Kahn” , told the hearing the prosecutor. Bernard Lemaire will demonstrate in 15 minutes and six expected. “Whereas in any event the knowledge that one (Dominique Strauss-Kahn Ed) their actual activities (Editor’s note of prostitutes) can result, their light, their sex or duties to the IMF that many participants nightlife where they were said they were unaware that they were prostituting “ including the president and chanted ad unsurprisingly the release of Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
The expected EXCLUSIVE whitening DSK
“Whereas in any case ‘s knowledge of it [Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Ed] of their actual activities [prostitutes, Ed] can result, their outfits, their sexual practices or duties to the IMF that many participants nightlife where they said they were unaware that they prostituted themselves;
Whereas the accused who claims libertine did not conduct their recruitment or settlement of delivery;
Whereas even though he was aware of their prostitution activities, which is not demonstrated in view of previous developments, it is clear that he only benefit like other terms of sexual performance group in which he participated and which was provided by two other members, David Roquet and Fabrice Pazskowski … /..
Whereas that one can not impute an instigator in the light of 35 SMS he has exchanged over a period of 22 months and whose style used can be explained by very close bonds of friendship and indisputable that bind them. Except that they are set to subjective interpretation, they do not highlight a supply instruction but comments on outings and answers questions about the availability of the accused;
Whereas that we can not blame him one more provision of premises [for prostitution Ed] when it was there now, he has participated in these sexual encounters … that he has had a client behavior, not punishable by criminal law.
Whereas the offense is characterized with respect to any of the prostitutes …
should be entered in the process of release . “
The smile of DSK
By sitting back, former IMF chief will be a smile. He expected probably. But this release on behalf of the law does erase the harsh words of prostitutes during the hearing, yellow description of what Dominique Strauss-Kahn has described himself as “a rather rough sexuality” . He alone knows. “The judge’s order was totally ideological, this judgment puts to naught the order for reference, there was no legal items in this folder” , summarizes Henri Leclerc, one of the lawyers Dominique Strauss-Kahn left the courthouse.
More surprising, the Criminal Court also delivered the acquittal against Dodo Brine, keeper of brothels in Belgium, and many other defendants. He was suspected of having sent from Belgium prostitutes in the Lille region, as well as Paris and the United States in favor of Dominique Strauss-Kahn. He was the only protagonist of this case against which the prosecution had requested a sentence of imprisonment, specifically two years with one year suspended. The court held in particular that testimony concerning were too vague.
Only René Kojfer sentenced
Among those called to the bar, only René Kojfer, former head of relations Public Carlton, longtime friend of Dodo Brine, was sentenced to one year suspended sentence. All other defendants were acquitted: the two friends entrepreneurs, the main organizers of the evenings, also acquitted by the court in this part of the case, have instead been sentenced to a suspended sentence in the financial aspect of the case , as a third warned, accused of having read the bills. Relax also for Commissioner Jean-Christophe Lagarde, who has participated in trips to Washington, at the time when DSK was still in office
