Warning signs

IMF Managing Director and likely candidate for President of France, Dominique Strauss-Kahn.  Finding himself in the custody of the actual Law and Order: SVU.  But go read this story from France Soir last week (run through your favourite translator if necessary) -- written before this bizarre development.  There were problems for someone on a public sector salary: the apartment in central Paris, the place in Marrakesh, the Porsche, and the fixer Ramzy Khiroun, the kind of fixer that famous people with a tendency to land in sticky situations might need.  It seems there was a lot of stuff about DSK hidden in plain sight.
