It's been nearly a month since mother-of-four Anna Gristina has been accused of running a multimillion-dollar prostitution ring.Aside from allegations that she has a juicy client list that may or may not include former presidential candidate John Edwards and that she's a "vindictive bitch", most of the recent news has been about the money laundering angle. Until now: The Observer suggests that NY Post editor-in-chief Col Allan was mentioned by Gristina in conversations recorded by the authorities. more ›

The mother of four who is accused of running a multimillion-dollar prostitution ring from an unassuming Upper East Side apartment has granted a jailhouse interview to the Post. Anna Gristina says from Rikers Island, "[The investigation is] not about me; it’s bigger than me... [Prosecutors] are trying to sweat me out. They are clearly trying to break me," but, "I’d bite my tongue off before I’d tell them anything." Well, that will make her alleged clients—who include high-powered politicians and business—happy, right? more ›

A 44-year-old mother of four who allegedly made millions running a high-end brothel out of an Upper East Side apartment has been arrested and indicted. DNAinfo reports that Anna Gristina, who is a British National and owns property in Canada, was arrested in the middle of a meeting with a Morgan Stanley banker after a five-year investigation, because the public corruption unit believed she was a flight risk. Gristina allegedly bragged during the Eliot Spitzer investigation that she had sources in law enforcement who would alert her and protect her from government scrutiny. more ›

Kristen Davis, the Manhattan madam who was busted for running a prostitution ring, has a new book—available online—that details her various johns. And the Daily News reports on how she characterized a very famous one: Former governor Eliot Spitzer. Spitzer, fake name "James," was a steady client ("at least once a week") between 2004 and 2006, but she when "the complaints began coming in hot and heavy" about him "getting rough and too aggressive with the girls - repeatedly pressuring them to do things they didn't want to do," Davis declined his business. Especially because he was a "real weasel about" not wearing a condom, which confirms (ew) the federal wiretap conversations between another prostitution ring's booker and Ashley Dupre about Spitzer being "difficult." more ›
