DSK again

I have never liked the filming of accused in handcuffs. For me it's contrary to natural justice.
But, assuming that the quotes are correct then this article shows a real problem with social attitudes in France and with commentators in particular. The ones that stood out for me were:


1 Sophie de Menthion - 'just another minor alleged crime.'


2 Jean-Francois Khan - 'more likely an act of imprudence, a bit of domestic tupping.'


3 Bernard-Henri Levy - 'on the pretence that he was a citizen like any other.'


Such arrogance from a so called intellectual elite. He is who he is, he's French and above the law. None condemned his actions just his treatment. They're not exactly helping his cause but then they all sound pretty thick to me.
