Nafissatou Diallo, the hotel maid, who had accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of sexual assault, may have ruined her own case, according to sources, who say that there are now even more conflicting versions of what happened on May 14.
Strauss-Kahn, 64, allegedly forced Diallo to perform oral sex. He was taken into custody a few minutes before his flight departed for Paris.
In recent weeks, his lawyers have asked the government to drop the case since it emerged that Diallo had lied to investigators and had criminal connections.
"There's so many inconsistencies now it's incredible," one source, told The New York Post. "Its like multiple choice--pick a version."
This week, Diallo broke her silence by giving long interviews to Newsweek and ABC.
One discrepancy, the source, told The Post that in an earlier account Diallo said that she and Strauss-Kahn did not speak, but in the interviews she recalled, he said, "You're not going to lose your job."
"It's a mess," one source said.
The next court appearance for the former International Monetary Fund chief has been postponed from August 1 to 23.
