NY Governor linked to Prostitution Ring

HydroHog Registered on Oct-30-2005 More User Info Message #113189 posted by HydroHog (Info) March 10, 2008 15:33:24 ET New York Governor Eliot Spitzer is in some big trouble. The Democrat,former prosecutor,and ironically Hillary Clinton supporter is expected to resign and possibly be indicted................ http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5g...S-4twD8VAOBV02 NEW YORK (AP) — Gov. Eliot Spitzer has told senior advisers that he had been involved in a prostitution ring, The New York Times reported Monday, citing an anonymous top administration official. Spitzer, who is married with three daughters, was scheduled to make an announcement Monday afternoon. Spitzer officials wouldn't immediately comment on the story. The Times reported that a person with knowledge of the governor's role believes the governor is identified as a client in court papers. Four people allegedly connected to a high-end prostitution ring called Emperors Club VIP were arrested last week. The Web site of the Emperors Club VIP displays photographs of scantily clad women with their faces hidden, along with hourly rates depending on whether the prostitutes were rated with one diamond, the lowest ranking, or seven diamonds, the highest. The most highly ranked prostitutes cost $5,500 an hour, prosecutors said. Prosecutors said the defendants arranged connections between wealthy men and more than 50 prostitutes in New York, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Miami, London and Paris. The Times reported that the governor's travel records show he was in Washington in mid-February, and that one of the clients arranged to meet with a prostitute on the night of Feb. 13. The case is being handled by prosecutors in the Public Corruption unit of U.S. Attorney Michael Garcia's office. Garcia spokeswoman Yusill Scribner said the office had no comment. Spitzer, 48, built his political legacy on rooting out corruption, including several headline-making battles with Wall Street while serving as attorney general. He stormed into the governor's office in 2006 with a historic share of the vote, vowing to continue his no-nonsense approach to fixing one of the nation's worst governments. Time magazine had named him "Crusader of the Year" when he was attorney general and the tabloids proclaimed him "Eliot Ness." But his stint as governor has been marred by several problems, including an unpopular plan to grant driver's licenses to illegal immigrants and a plot by his aides to smear Spitzer's main Republican nemesis. Spitzer had been expected to testify to the state Public Integrity Commission he had created to answer for his role in the scandal, in which his aides were accused of misusing state police to compile travel records to embarrass Senate Republican leader Joseph Bruno. Spitzer had served two terms as attorney general where he pursued criminal and civil cases and cracked down on misconduct and conflicts of interests on Wall Street and in corporate America. He had previously been a prosecutor in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, handling organized crime and white-collar crime cases. His cases as state attorney general included a few criminal prosecutions of prostitution rings and into tourism involving prostitutes. In 2004, he was part of an investigation of an escort service in New York City that resulted in the arrest of 18 people on charges of promoting prostitution and related charges.

He needed to go anyhow,because of his illegal pursuit of Joseph Bruno,the repub senate majority leader. Have a good one ...

Also, I think Craig,and Foley are both a disgrace. Especially Craig, who went back on his word to resign. I don't think Spitzer will be prosecuted on the sex crime itself. However, it turns out that the fact that both the money transfers and the hooker herself were transfered across state lines, it's a felony. Spitzer won't resign until he has a deal in place that he won't be prosecuted. I'd like to see him impeached if he won't resign asap. HOG

Also,power and wealth,have corrupted many and continues to do so,no matter which side of the aisle yer on,I'll grant ya that..lol. Maybe we should just excuse the actions of dems and repubs,by saying it ain't their fault,they were just pursueing the politically-correct path defined by modern liberalism ? Do you recall how liberals claimed,back when Bill Clinton was mis-behaving,that infidelity is a common component of every marriage-they even went so far as to claim that every marriage has suffered an affair ? Well that pissed me off back then,because I have known many conservative and traditional values,Christians who have had very long and successful marriages,without a single affair..yer side wants to claim that there ain't no such thing..and yer simply wrong. As for the weather in Texas,it seems like it's been changing every 10 minutes..lol..yesterday the high temp was 71 or so and the Sun was shining,who knows what today will bring..lol. I bet yer still sore from changing that there transmission out,did ya have to git a rebuilt or used transmission ? Is yer volvo a front,rear or awd drive ? I've always bought American made cars and trucks,myself..I'd rather support Americans than the swedish..lol. Have a good one !

The working middle class is where I come from. $48,ooo won't provide comfort these days. BUT THEY DID SETTLE PAUL Mc Cartney's divorce settlement and Heather Mills just walked away with $48 million of it. She will be livin' in comfort. Not bad for a one legged HO!!!!!!!
