Was Strauss-Kahn's rape accuser maid a 'hooker'?

Former International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn's accuser was not a mere hotel maid, as she served the male guests as a 'hooker', a source close to the defense investigation has said.
"There is information . . . of her getting extraordinary tips, if you know what I mean. And it's not for bringing extra f--king towels," The New York Post quoted the source, as saying.
"When you're a chambermaid at Local 6, when you first get to the US, you start at the motels at JFK Airport. You don't start at the Sofitel," the source said.
"There's a whole squad of people who saw her as an earner," he added.
Strauss-Kahn lawyers presented their defence in the New York court, saying that the sexual encounter between him and the accuser was consensual, but they refused to say yesterday whether their client had paid the hotel mail for having sex with him.
Meanwhile, Strauss-Kahn has been released from his house arrest without bail after prosecutors admitted that there were 'serious credibility issues' with his accuser.
“It’s clear that the strength of this case has been affected by substantial credibility issues with the witness,” Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon had told the court.
Sixty-two-year-old Strauss-Kahn left the court smiling with his arm around wife, Anne Sinclair, after a judge lifted his stringent bail conditions, but reports suggest that the charges have not yet been dismissed and the court will hold on to Strauss-Kahn’s passport.
He had been held under house arrest in his Manhattan mansion.
