Let us revel in Dominique Strauss-Kahn’s dramatic fall from grace, as he gets in the shit for sexual assault and a whole bunch of other gross and incident activities.
Once a prominent political figure, serving as the head of the International Monetary Fund and as France's Finance Minister, DSK was considered a potential candidate for the French presidency. However, in 2011, he was charged with sexually assaulting a maid, Nafissatou Diallo, in New York City, leading to his resignation from the IMF and derailing his political career.
Although he pleaded not guilty and the case was dismissed due to doubts about the victim's credibility, the incident sparked other allegations of sexual misconduct against him. French journalist Tristane Banon accused him of attempted rape, although an investigation into her case was later dropped.
And then, to lighten the mood, today’s People’s Pulse question is ‘Have you ever shit yourself?’ Don’t forget to keep an eye on our Instagram stories to submit your responses to be read out during the People’s Pulse.
