 Emperors
Club VIP
NY Governor Spitzer now known as
CLIENT-9 of the Emperors Club VIP prostitution ring spent a
night at the Mayflower hotel in NY. News clips:
-Client-9 was
captured on a wiretapped call telling an alleged prostitution ringleader
that he would withdraw thousands of dollars from the bank to pay a call
girl, according to the complaint. On the night of Feb. 13, the day
before Valentine's Day, the woman went to a Washington hotel, identified
as the Mayflower by a person familiar with the situation.-
-Mr. Spitzer had
registered under the name George Fox, according to a person
briefed on the situation, using his own Fifth Avenue Manhattan address.-
-Federal prosecutor arrested four people
in connection with the high-priced prostitution ring and although
clients are rarely charged in these circumstances, the Mann Act, which
addresses prostitution and human trafficking, makes it a crime to
transport someone between states for the purpose of prostitution.
Meanwhile Fox News is reporting that the governor will resign, citing
sources close to Eliot Spitzer.-
-The Emperors Club VIP, which rocked the political career of New
York Governor Eliot Spitzer and tarnished his "Mr. Clean" image, is a
call-girl business that arranged sex between wealthy men and more than
50 prostitutes in New York, Washington, Los Angeles, Miami, London and
Paris, according to U.S. federal prosecutors.-
-The website for Emperors Club VIP
has been offline since the ring was busted, but an archived version of
the site from mid-2007 showed a semi-classy main page that called the
club "the most preferred international club for those accustomed to
excellence," offering "a convenient variety of services" around the
world. The Emperor's Club stated that it was "a positive force,
intensely committed to serving our customers honestly." They had a goal
to "make life more peaceful, balanced, beautiful and meaningful."- |
