Report: Spitzer Tipped Off Escort Madam to Investigation
Fox News ^ | March 8, 2012

Posted on 03/08/2012 12:03:43 PM PST by Free ThinkerNY

The Manhattan-based madam, Anna Gristina, arrested last week for running a high-end escort service was warned of an impending crackdown on escort services by her client Attorney General Elliot Spitzer in 2005.

Kristin Davis, who ran a Manhattan call-girl service used by disgraced former Gov. Spitzer, said she shared a booker, Winnie Wong, with Gristina.

Davis said she once spoke to Wong, who told her that Spitzer alerted Gristina to a 2005 investigation. Davis has taken and passed a lie detector test regarding her conversation with Wong in which Wong declared that Spitzer had given Gristina the warning.

If Spitzer goes down, he could probably bring a few fellow Dems down with him.

Perhaps, even Bloomsberg.

Wouldn't that be covered by hooker-client confidentiality?

I wondered why it took five years to bring down the whore. Especially since she was dealing in children. She said she had police protection...

Now you know.

It’s likely diddling children was part of the perks of being Spitzer.

Didn’t we used to put people in prison for doing this?

He already got a pass for the federal crimes of procuring prostitutes over a state line and bundling moneys in amounts less than $10k to avoid Treasury Department reporting requirements. Why would he get prosecuted over this? He is a Democrat. They don’t have rules.

Probably not.

But he would fold like a cheap suit, if he was up against a principled prosecutor.

“I wondered why it took five years to bring down the whore.”

For the answer, read the title of the article.

CNN will undoubtedly re-hire him as a commentator at double his previous salary.

After all, American women just love these bad boys....plus he's devastatingly handsome and sexy, to boot.

Its not like he called a person describing rampant pre-marital sexual activity, requiring public finacial support to keep it underway, a “slut” in a commentary description. This is minor.
