Dominique Strauss-Kahn may have more to worry about than a possible prison sentence.
The IMF chief’s alleged sex-assault victim lives in a Bronx apartment rented exclusively for adults with HIV or AIDS, reports The New York Post.
The hotel maid has occupied the fourth-floor High Bridge pad with her 15-year-old daughter since January ‚ and before that, lived in another Bronx apartment set aside by Harlem Community AIDS United strictly for adults with the virus and their families.
The Post has not been able to ascertain whether the maid, 32, has HIV or AIDS because of medical confidentiality laws.
But the agency rents apartments only for adults with the disease. A Harlem United worker said at least one adult in the household has to be HIV-positive or have AIDS to qualify for one of their units. A healthy adult with a child with HIV or AIDS is not eligible.
“The [current] apartment isn’t rented under her name. Harlem [Community AIDS] United places their tenants in our building,” explained an employee of the apartment building’s property manager, Chaim Gross, of Brooklyn.
The woman has accused France’s leading presidential contender of forcing her to perform oral sex on him twice and then trying to rape her as she tried to clean his Sofitel hotel room in Times Square on Saturday.
Strauss-Kahn remains in jail at New York’s Rikers Island as a grand jury considers whether there is sufficient evidence to indict him. His next court appearance is scheduled for Friday.
