East Side Madam with America's Largest Black Book Busted
Yesterday afternoon a 32-year-old woman was busted for running a prostitution ring on the East Side of Manhattan that charged $900/hour for its services. Kristen Davis (no relation to the Sex and the City star...probably) operated four websites, sending her gals to one of two apartments she kept for the illegal trysts (the magic apparently happened at both 229 East 53rd Street and 533 Third Avenue).
Davis was arrested at her own apartment, at 235 East 40th Street (pictured), where police found $19,000 in cash; another $500,000 was found in bank accounts linked to her (which have now been frozen). The official charges brought against her were for money laundering and promoting prostitution.
While the police seek out the 15 prostitutes who worked for her, Davis has one of the busiest lawyers in town, Mark Jay Heller, ready to defend her. As she's being held at the Seventh Precinct one the Lower East Side, Heller said he needed to know more about the charges being brought against his client -- however, he stated that she has worked in the hedge fund industry and had no previous arrests. He also noted that “This case is going to generate a media frenzy."
Perhaps that's because she has "the largest black book in America" -- can't wait to find out who's in there! Rumors are already circling about the bust going down because "she was ex-Gov. Eliot Spitzer's personal Madame Butterfly and that she serviced an A-list clientele which included politicians, political contributors, major movie stars and directors, as well as the most prominent sports world figures."

Bless that woman. She has done us men a great service. Hope she gets off the hook.
At least we know how some people are able to afford the luxury condominiums.
She's 32??? Puh-leeeeze. More like 62.
#3- she still could be 32. crystal meth is a hell of a drug. Look at fergie.
What's wrong with her face?
Thank god they stopped her. she's starting to look like Jocelyn Wildenstein
i was thinking she looks like a woman considerably older than 32 who's gotten too much plastic surgery.
she looks terrible. i'm rating her at "-3 whore diamonds"
Now this is something that puzzles me. I thought all these politicians were oh-so-charming and charismatic. Why can't they get laid for free? It seems to me that hiring at $900/hour prostitute is simply antisocial. Can't be bothered to charm a nice civilian lady? Is it really more convenient to hire a hooker than to seduce your employees and colleagues?
I think these men need to go to charm school and learn some sexual etiquette. It would save them a lot of money and trouble.
Prostitution should be legal, hookers would pay taxes and by 900$/h that would be a big income!

Cucarachita-
No one gets laid for free. You have to pay something in any relationship- financially, or emotionally.
Even though I havent done it I can understand paying for sex as a business transaction with no strings. It would be easier than dealing with someone you don't want to date anymore.
The problem is that just like the failed war on drugs, theres no reason prostittion should be illegal. Regulated sure, illegal no.
People pay for sex all the time
If prostitution was legal guys like Spitzer would probably not be interested. They need the added thrill of doing something wrong. And if prostitution were legal prices would probably fall which also takes away from the thrill. Some newspaper ran an article about the placebo effect of high prices.
seriously whats wrong with banging a ho every now an d then...if it was legal it could be regulated and taxed...but where is the fun in that?
will they open up all the companys phone records to go after all their costumers???
It's all about discretion Cucarachita, that's what they are paying for Discretion, that is, until the madam gets busted.
that's sylvia miles.
Cucarachita, men don't really pay these women to get laid. Men pay them so they will go away when told to.
Donatella wannabe, 32 my eye, a Dock's favorite I bet, and more power to her for breaking through the glass, er, mirrored ceiling.
(Damn! You beat me to it. Here goes anyway...)
Donatella Versace called; she wants her face back!
