The hotel maid who accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of sex assault spent nearly eight hours with prosecutors Wednesday in the first meeting since the district attorney's office publicly announced it had doubts about her credibility.

Nafissatou Diallo's attorney, Kenneth Thompson, said the meeting went very well and focused on tapes of two conversations she had with an incarcerated friend shortly after Strauss-Kahn's arrest. Diallo didn't speak to reporters outside the district attorney's office.

She is expected to do so at a press conference in Brooklyn on Thursday, according to a news release issued shortly ago.

Diallo plans to join religious, women's and African community groups at a Christian center to thank New Yorkers who support her.
