Immigration: African Immigrant

Key Witness Dept: For Mr. Vance, elected 17 months ago to succeed the long-serving 35 years Robert Morgenthau, 91, the handling of the Strauss-Kahn affair brought a barrage of criticism and demands that he recuse himself from the case, according to Globe And Mail. Indeed, while some critics have lamented the D.A.’s approach to what’s become known in France as “l’affaire DSK,” most criminal-law experts say Mr. Vance, 56, has had very little room to manoeuvre and has acted properly and the latter dossier is now expected to be dropped, after investigators belatedly discovered that the key witness, a 32-year-old African immigrant, lied about her past and her actions in the minutes after the alleged sexual assault, raising questions about her credibility. That is not about to happen. As reported in the news.
