Former International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn returns to his house on Franklin St. in the Tribeca section of downtown Manhattan Saturday, July 2, 2011 in New York. Strauss-Kahn was been accused by a Sofitel hotel maid of trying to rape her in May, but prosecutors told a judge on Friday, July 1, 2011, they had discovered serious problems with the maid's credibility. The judge subsequently lifted his house arrest, allowing him to travel in the U.S. but not abroad. (AP Photo/David Karp) (AP)
