Well, nothing like a great sex scandal involving the world's oldest profession to make one's afternoon. Especially when the client has made a reputation as a crusading AG, including shutting down escort services..

I guess the most intriguing parts of this story are:

A) That he was so dumb about covering his tracks - even reserving the hotel room in his own name.

B) That he paid nearly $5,000 for an hour

C) That he (as Client 9) was known as a difficult punter who made out-of-the-ordinary requests. I smell a fetishist of some sort, any thoughts?

D) And that he actually thought in this era he could get away with this while governor - priceless!

Media links are everywhere but here's the Smoking Gun piece:

Client 9

JUICY!

I was working at the gym when the newsflash occurred and mouths were agape.
Had to laugh out loud during his "press conference" which he could not escape fast enough.

Looking forward to the sordid details.
BTW what is AG?

Attorney General

Bonus beats:

When Client 9 steps down, NY is about to have a blind black governor! Talk about historic breakthroughs...

Only in NY, kids

I wonder what his fetish is? Shoes? WS?
Scat? He sounds Messy.

Bonnie? Any 411?

"Client 9"
NOW I think everyone can get where the name "Jackie 60" came from.
Right Stan?

I just found out about client 9 & KNEW, KNEW, KNEW that it would be a hot topic here. Had to come out of my turtle shell (Hey AN - Luv u 2)

What a dink!

I heard something this morning on the radio that he wanted to tax all e-commerce, even if the shop has no NYS brick & mortar presence in NYS. Well, I guess he won't be around to push that piece of hateful taxation through.

Funny but these prosecutor types -generally do a lot of good as prosecutors- but when they get into an office like mayor or governor (like Judy-annie and this Spritzer) they tend to go bezerk on the authority thing.

That mug of his on those photos . . . he looks like he might have a Stan Laurel fetish!

Stan Laurel fetish is my new speciality

$5,000 bucks an hour!
Honey, Let me turn that sad frown upside down.

So I hear his 'fetish' is that he likes to shag the hookers without condoms... that must make his missus happy.

I wonder what he looks like naked.

Doesn't it seem like he wanted to get caught? The danger of it probably excited him. It's like a rich white male power thing. If prostitution were legal, he'd probably be completely dissinterested.

I don't know. I was talking to some st8 bloke recently about prozzies and they all said its easier to get a paid for play than to 'get involved' with someone who might come in the middle of you and your significant other. Its st8 non-emotional sex than having to dress it up as smth else. Don't forget in the st8 world there's not that much that st8 women give out that isn't usually leveraged with some big emotion or the pussy as a leverage for some financial security. Most of the straigh birds I've met who enjoy sex for sport are totally bonkers Messy Bonnies (except for me of course I'm totally sane).

So if the Governor of the State of New York is number 9 on the service's list, I want to know who are numbers 1 through 8 and what government posts do they hold?

I second what Anna says about strai8 males' opinion on paid sex. All the males I've ever heard talk about how it ends up being less expensive than going on a 'real' date plus the sex is guaranteed to happen -no cab/dinner/show/cab and thanks but not tonight.

Spit was out of touch with reality like the majority of the priviledged who think the rules don't apply to them. So insulated by money from the daily consequences of life they never think they could possibly be treated just like everybody else. But it all returns to the backward laws against human nature in this nation. Trying to have laws against human nature and say it is based on morality is intellectual nonsense. That is why prostitution is legal and regulated in the majority of other first world countries.

Bull's eye. Beautifully put, seven.

Thanks for the clarification Hattie.

I thought it may have meant Angry Gadfly

Have any women been arrested or detained? ....

A 'QAT Consulting Group' has gone down ...
2 men, money-laundering charges.

The court docs on the sting (the Smoking Gun text) are riveting.
The Feds set up and taped an entire session.

There's a mention of Client 10, the list goes on and all those politcos exulting at his downfall are probably half of them clientage.


from NY1.com

"The document also contains an ambiguous reference to whether 'Kristen' [the decoy prostitute] felt safe – which two law enforcement officials say related to Spitzer's preference to not wear a condom.

"News of the scandal made the governor a target of Monday's late-night comedy shows. ...On the Tonight Show, Jay Leno joked that Spitzer's pants are the source of Global Warming -- and said that if the governor was involved, one would think he would have at least been important enough to be "Client Number 1."

Man oh man, what an hour

---"I wonder what he looks like naked."---

i wondered that too... just as i mentally undressed this corporate president i once developed media for... very similar moods... something so x-ray specs a-peeling regarding "the suit" and THAT control

but yeah... a jigger human nature to a pony of morality pretty much serves-up the cocktail of choice for power of purchase puritans

so... was oliver hardy stan laurel's fetish?

As for Spitz using his own name on the hotel room ... I don't know the details, but he might've been in DC on legit government business and had to have his name on the hotel bill for expense-tracking purposes. Probably got horny and figured he'd have the hooker come right to his hotel suite without ever knowing what his real name was. Besides, not many hotels these days will let you check in under an assumed name -- the desk clerks all want ID, etc.

It occurred to me that Spitz should've invested in a "trim coordinator", some subordinate charged with rounding up pussy on his behalf, but then Spitz probably thought that'd be risky since the person might get greedy and go for a million-dollar tell-all book deal.

Anyway, why is the FBI investigating all this with our taxpayer money? These were consenting adults alone in a hotel room. It's legal to pay two people to have sex on camera and package it as adult entertainment but it's illegal for one person to rent out their own bod for an hour or two in a mutually agreeable transaction. Even Alan Dershowitz said, "this would be a page 26 story in any European country, but here's a bold-faced, front page headline."

Did someone say Stan Laurel fetish?
