KHAN!!! Done Wrong

Almost exactly a month ago, I told you the tale of the International Criminal Court’s chief prosecutor, a revolting and hubris-enrobed individual named Karim Khan (whom you may remember from this most memorable of his stunts)…

Awwww, the ICC has a background and a podium and serious faces, almost like they’re a real boy https://t.co/HbuUzpBiqY

…had been suspended from his schweet, schweet gig after a two-year-long (!) investigation for thinking all the ladies found him as irresistible as his mirror did and acting on that ill-founded assumption without asking politely, ‘May I?’ first.

The International Criminal Court, #ICC , has just suspended its chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, for serious sexual misconduct.

Now, I had not heard that the UN investigation also established the delightful and personable Mr. Khan had retaliated against other court employees who had reported the sexaul misconduct allegations, but it’s certainly unsurprising.

The court is meeting this month, having accepted the UN report, to determine whether Inspector Close-seau gets to keep his job in light of everything they’ve learned. The prosecutor’s credibility is completely shot as far as member nations are concerned- two-thirds voted no confidence in him – so what’s the point of keeping him and doing more reputational damage?

And it is not looking good, which is great. For the court, however, it has them in a complete spazz-out, because the pounding Trump has been meting out has been unmerciful and Khan’s own actions on the global stage have seriously impacted the court’s stature.

…The case has presented the court, known as the I.C.C., with one of its worst crises since it was founded 24 years ago, threatening to further weaken the body as it faces sanctions from President Trump over its investigations of Israelis and Americans.

…Removing Mr. Khan would be an unprecedented move for the court. However, leaving him in place, analysts and experts said, would potentially be deeply damaging to its functioning and reputation.

“It is hard to see how Khan can continue in the job, which demands complete adherence to the truth, when at least two-thirds of the bureau’s member states found his credibility to be utterly lacking,” said Kenneth Roth, the former executive director of the nonprofit Human Rights Watch.

And what a scuzzball.

…In interviews with the U.N. investigators, the woman who made the allegations against Mr. Khan described escalating sexual overtures from him.

First, she said, there was overfamiliarity during a work trip to London, then incidents in his office in which “he would grab and paw at her breasts, try to access her pelvic area, and suck on her ear or neck,” according to a summary of the U.N. investigation’s findings obtained by The Times.

2/ The ICC bureau found “beyond a reasonable doubt” that chief prosecutor Karim Khan had engaged in a sexual relationship with the accuser, and that “in the context of that power imbalance a sexual relationship could never be appropriate.”

I am delighted they took this so seriously.

…The bureau found that the U.N. investigation had established the accuser’s credibility and that there was no evidence that her allegations had brought her any personal or professional gain. Instead, it found, there was considerable evidence that accusing Mr. Khan had caused her significant personal and professional harm.

The bureau found “beyond a reasonable doubt” that the prosecutor had engaged in a sexual relationship with the accuser, and that “in the context of that power imbalance a sexual relationship could never be appropriate.”

That sexual relationship, the bureau found, was “extremely harmful” to the proper functioning of the court and was inconsistent with the statutory requirements of Mr. Khan’s role, which state that the chief prosecutor must be “a person of high moral character.”

The bureau did not reach a conclusion about whether Mr. Khan retaliated against other court employees who reported the allegations of sexual misconduct, which the U.N. investigation said it had found.

This means Mr Khan will not be coming back to work off of his suspension and may well be filing for whatever unemployment benefits global thugs can claim.

And I doubt that they’ll bother investigating any further claims. 

There are many more ❗When you have this behavior in-house you are not in a position to CONDEMN it when it happens and gets worse like the countless rapes the male and female Jewish hostages suffered at the HANDS of HAMAS ‼️ This body was silent and now we know why ‼️ SHAMEFUL pic.twitter.com/nrzD3CCvZK

They have him dead to rights on this one.

He did the dirty work for lots of dirty friends, so maybe they can help him out.

It makes one wonder how much of his tainted prosecution and indictments will stand.

💥 NY Times reports an internal ICC document concluded Prosecutor Karim Khan engaged in sexual harassment.

His position is now clearly untenable. The politically motivated vendetta against Israel, including the baseless war crimes charges, should also be thrown out immediately! pic.twitter.com/uOk0rcAeql

In any event, if he doesn’t resign beforehand, Khan will find out his fate on 24 July, when all the ICC member states vote on whether he stays or goes.

If Trump posts about this, it’s gonna be a doozy.
