Things are not looking all that rosy for Dominique Strauss-Kahn these days.

The disgraced former head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is in court facing some serious charges. This from the Daily Mail:

The 65-year-old is accused of participating in a French sex ring and instigating parties involving prostitutes in the northern French city of Lille, as well as Paris, Brussels and Washington DC between 2008 and 2011.

Now the details of his involvement are being laid bare in court and the extent of this dirty old man’s sexual deviancy is all a bit ‘Fifty Shades of Gray’. His lawyers have denied he had anything to do with organising these orgies and he only took part in 12 over the three year period in question. Decent orgy-to-year ratio if you ask me.

Whilst Strauss-Khan denies any knowledge of the women being prostitutes, his accusers remember things a little differently. The Daily Mail again:

One of his accusers meanwhile told the court that she was ‘forced into’ certain sex acts against her will, while Strauss-Kahn stared at her ‘smiling’.

The radical feminist protest group Femen made quite a fuss outside the court, with two women attacking the car carrying Strauss-Khan and chanting ‘Your turn to be f**ked’. You can see the video of that up top.

Me thinks there will be more salacious sex details coming to light in the next few days. We will, of course, be keeping our eyes and ears open.
