Spot The Common Theme: Prostitution Scandals, Kickbacks And Money Laundering
• zerohedge.comEx-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 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."
Then came Christine Lagarde's corruption and kickbacks scandal.
