Domonic Strauss-Kahn has recently been a headliner in the news, after a hotel housekeeper accused him of rape. Mr. Strauss-Kahn was set to run as a candidate for the presidency for the socialist party in France. Strauss-Kahn was indicted by the New York District Attorney’s office this past May and has since been released as his accuser’s credibility began to crumble.
