I am certain, well, almost certain, that there was no violent rape attempt. I don't believe that. I know the guy, I don't think so. That there might have been some kind of carelessness, I don't... (knowing laugh), I don't know how to say it, a rogering... a rogering, um, of maids, well, I mean, which isn't good. But there, that's my impression.
--Defending his friend Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Jean-François Kahn, journalist, in an interview on French television:
Je suis certain, enfin pratiquement certain, qu'il n'y a pas eu une tentative violente de viol, je ne crois pas, ça, je connais le personnage, je ne le pense pas. Qu'il y ait eu une imprudence on peut pas le… (rire gourmand), j'sais pas comment dire, un troussage […] un troussage, euh, de domestique, enfin, j'veux dire, ce qui est pas bien. Mais, voilà, c'est une impression.
