These were among the circumstances that confronted detectives of the Special Victims Squad of the New York Police Department who were summoned into action on May 14.
In recent days, prosecutors have disclosed troubling inconsistencies in the housekeeper’s account of what happened immediately after the alleged attack at the Sofitel New York in Midtown, uncovered associations she had with people suspected of crimes, and revealed that elements of her life story had been fabricated. These developments eroded the accuser’s credibility and altered law enforcement officials’ view of her. But none of those things were known to the police the day of the arrest of Mr. Strauss-Kahn, whose next scheduled court appearance is July 18. All they knew was that they had to act quickly.
“Since he was getting on a plane, getting out of the nation, they grabbed him faster than sooner, because it would have looked bad if they let him out of the country and they couldn’t get him back,” said a law enforcement official with knowledge of the case against Mr. Strauss-Kahn, who stepped down as managing director of the International Monetary Fund after his arrest.
“I guess, in a perfect world, they would not have had to arrest him right away,” said the official, who insisted on anonymity because the case is continuing. “They could have checked the evidence and everything. But I guess they figured they had to get him off the plane. It changed the circumstances quite a bit.”
Even before the criminal case against Mr. Strauss-Kahn started to fall apart, there were questions about how the investigation was being handled. With his release from house arrest, those concerns have only intensified.
Kenneth P. Thompson, a lawyer for the 32-year-old housekeeper, asked why Mr. Strauss-Kahn had remained in police custody for several hours before anyone asked him directly about what had happened in his hotel suite. Others questioned why prosecutors had sought to hold him; they noted that had Mr. Strauss-Kahn been released on bail, prosecutors would have had weeks to investigate the complaint and secure an indictment.
The case exposes the “punish first, figure out what happened later” state of American justice that is usually visited upon “ordinary schnooks,” said Eugene J. O’Donnell, a professor of police studies at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Manhattan.
But in this case, Mr. Strauss-Kahn’s celebrity and his high-powered legal team helped show potential liabilities associated with detectives’ duty to advocate for a victim.
“I think that any high-profile case exposes routine police work, and when you get into the guts of routine police work it is often not a pretty picture,” Mr. O’Donnell said. “Not all the ends tie up neatly, and when you are racing that clock, that is even more possible.”
Still, he added, “Maybe at the time steps were taken, there was no choice but to take them.”
Mr. Strauss-Kahn, 62, was handed off to New York detectives by officers from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, who had removed him from his flight to Paris. He was taken to the East 123rd Street offices of the Manhattan Special Victims Squad and kept there for hours before detectives asked him about the episode.
According to court papers filed by the office of the Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus R. Vance Jr., it was shortly before 11 p.m. when Detective Steven Lane, of the Special Victims Squad, asked Mr. Strauss-Kahn if he wanted to talk about “the incident.” Mr. Strauss-Kahn replied: “My attorney has told me not to talk. I was ready to talk.”
Mr. Thompson, the accuser’s lawyer, said Friday that he had asked Mr. Vance to explain why the police waited so long to ask Mr. Strauss-Kahn if he had attacked the woman — characterizing that as a “Policing 101” oversight. He said Mr. Vance gave no answer.
“One of the first things you do is you try to get them to make a statement,” Mr. Thompson said. “They didn’t do that. Instead, for five hours he sat there and nobody had the guts to go up to him and ask if he had committed these acts.”
