A woman accused of running a prostitution service catering to men in hotels and homes in the Washington area and who has threatened to expose her 10,000 clients, was arraigned Friday before U.S. District Judge Gladys Kessler.
Palfrey says she had 10,000 clients contained in lists since 1993 which, according to her Web site, weigh in at "46 pounds of detailed and itemized phone records."

Palfrey may have no other choice but to "liquidate her only remaining asset," records involving some 10,000 clients, said Washington attorney Montgomery Blair Sibley, who is representing her in a civil asset-forfeiture case that is now on hold because of the criminal indictment.
On a Web site seeking donations to her legal defense fund, the company is described as "a high-end adult fantasy firm which offered legal sexual and erotic services across the spectrum of adult sexual behavior."
Wonder how many clients are donating and donating heavy.

2 h.s. friends of mine started an escort service just outside d.c. in the early 90's as a scam. it was totally legit, but expectations beyond the letter of the contract where never entertained, and therefore they had no clientèle sufficient to sustain the venture. if nothing else, their lack of success demonstrated just how pervasive extracurriculars are in being an escort.

they guy in the partnership first came on the scene when he was paid to have sex w/ this black guy's wife (while he watched). to add to the hilarity, he looks like a fattened aaron ruell.

the girl part of the partnership was a mousy, non-descript, john hughes film stand-in, which she realized attracted 40 somethings. it was a winning formula for up to one date.

And it starts to get ugly for folks.

An attorney for Deborah Jeane Palfrey, the alleged "D.C. Madam," rejected accusations Monday that releasing a list of phone numbers used to dial Palfrey's high-end escort service amounted to blackmail.

"I call that due process of law," said Montgomery Blair Sibley, who represents Palfrey in a civil matter. "Why didn't we start in October if we were trying to blackmail people for money?"
Palfrey has given 46 pounds of telephone records to ABC News, she said, in hopes that the network can turn telephone numbers into names of clients who could testify on Palfrey's behalf.
Two names have been released so far, though ABC News reports on its Web site that potential "witnesses" could include a "Bush administration economist, the head of a conservative think tank, a prominent CEO, several lobbyists and a handful of military officials."

Randall Tobias, a top State Department official, resigned for "personal reasons" after acknowledging to ABC News that he had been one of Palfrey's clients. Tobias told ABC News he never had sex with the escorts; rather, he would "have gals come over to the condo to give me a massage."
Palfrey apologized to Tobias on Monday but said she was dismayed that he never came to her defense "with this extremely valuable exculpatory evidence."
But its a conspiracy against her...

Palfrey's prepared statements struck conspiratorial tones as she questioned why the government has made no attempt to charge any patrons or escorts if they, indeed, engaged in illegal activity.

Anyone who received or provided sex for money disobeyed her directives, and in some cases, their own "signed contracts," she insisted.

"I would expect the government -- as a matter of fairness and to avoid any hint of selective prosecution -- to charge each and every individual with the crimes of money laundering, racketeering and/or conspiracy as well," she said.

She implored the media to help her find out why she appears to be the sole target of the investigation.

The Tobias thing is great. I love the part about him using "Central Americans" for his massage duties. The man really is a globalization proponent. Unlike Ted Haggard, who preferred to keep his whore money domestic...(There's his new talking point: "At least Ted Haggard buys domestic!")

I wonder if he used rubbers?

(And now, boys and girls, Tobias is a great example of why you need to get your daughter that HPV vaccine, even if you are a crazy Christian who thinks that the atheists are sneaking nympho juice into her via it...she could grow up, marry a nice Christian man like Tobias who likes to **** hookers on a regular basis while still making sure that Africans get AIDS and die because Jesus doesn't like condoms.)

No honor in politics is acceptable, but when there is no honor in the "oldest profession" you have to question the state of that civilization.

Maybe the "Go Phone" will bring tranquility and safety back to the streets of prostition!

Sen. David Vitter, R-La., apologized Monday night for “a very serious sin in my past” after his telephone number appeared among those associated with an escort service operated by the so-called “D.C. Madam.”

Vitter’s spokesman, Joel Digrado, confirmed the statement in an e-mail sent to The Associated Press.

“This was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible,” Vitter said in the statement. “Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife in confession and marriage counseling. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there — with God and them. But I certainly offer my deep and sincere apologies to all I have disappointed and let down in any way.”

Shock news just in; Politician Confesses to Hypocrisy.

Oh no, my bad. It should have read "Hell Freezes Over".

Still, we finally know what John Lennon should have written - "God's forgiveness is all you need".

That's even better than the several "well-hung" jokes I had brewing.
