NEW YORK (AP) – The hotel maid at the center of the now-teetering sex assault case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn filed a libel lawsuit Tuesday against the New York Post after the tabloid reported she was a prostitute.
The woman’s lawyer, Kenneth Thompson, filed the claim in Bronx state Supreme Court after the Post, relying on anonymous sources, referred to the 32-year-old as a “prostitute” and a “hooker.” The paper also reported that she “traded sex for money” and turned tricks at a Brooklyn hotel while she was being housed by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office.
…
“We filed the suit because rape victims should not be called prostitutes,” Thompson said.
…
“In an apparent desperate attempt to bolster its rapidly plunging sales, defendant New York Post ran a series of defamatory articles which … stated as fact that the plaintiff is a prostitute,” according to the suit.
