• Weathering the public eye: This is a worthwhile little roundup on news (which we mentioned earlier) that the hotel maid who accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of rape, who’s now revealed her name to be Nafissatou Diallo, is speaking publicly about her charges. Something this video also touches on that’s an overlooked (in the relative sense) aspect of Strauss-Kahn’s legal troubles — he’s not just facing down one accuser. French writer Tristane Banon has also accused him of attempted rape, during an interview she conducted with him back in 2002, and French prosecutors have started a preliminary inquiry into the matter. source
