WASHINGTON — A woman accused of running a prostitution ring in the nation's capital is free to distribute thousands of pages of phone records after a federal judge lifted a restraining order on Thursday.

U.S. District Court Judge Gladys Kessler's order granted the request of Deborah Jeane Palfrey, 51, of Vallejo, Calif., to quash restrictions by government prosecutors that prohibited her from giving away the list.

"As a result, Jeane has determined to release those records under certain conditions to qualified individuals or organizations," wrote her attorney, Montgomery Blair Sibley, in an e-mail.

Palfrey and her attorney have said the list contains up to 15,000 names and could shake up Washington by revealing high-profile individuals.

I wonder how many names of our esteemed Senators and Congressmen will be on the list

[PBRSTREETGANG]

This should be “fun”.

[Rb ver. 2.0]

Put it on Ebay and let the bidding begin.

[Larry Lucido]

You DID use a fake name, didn’t you, Laz? :-)

[xcamel]

Revealing the list of DC elite that are so pathetic they had to pay for it....

[Red Badger]

Sex scandals in Washington for the summer............Happy days are here again!.......

[TexasCajun]

"Damnit Bill! You know I don't have access to FBI files like I used to! "

[Perdogg]

I doubt anyone is on the list of any importance. If so, it would have been leaked earlier.

[Diogenesis]

as before, democrats on the list will be protected.

[gridlock]

RULE #1: Don’t do it.

RULE #2: If you’re gonna do it, don’t use your real name.

[mainepatsfan]

It might be easier to just give us the names of those not on the list.

[Dick Bachert]

LET THE GAMES BEGIN... LOL!

[commish]

hmmm making sure the list gets out over a year before the election — smells like the list contains a lot more RAT names on it then rep names.

[mainepatsfan]

Yeah use something like Ron Mexico and no one will ever find out your true identity. /s

[Red Badger]

Didn’t I hear (a long while back) that this madam supplied escorts for both men and women? Was this a way of saying straight and gay without really saying it?.......

[theDentist]

... and a nervous shudder was felt through Washington as wives ears perked up.

[Just another Joe]

As a result, Jeane has determined to release those records under certain conditions to qualified individuals or organizations

I think, in the light of the pajamahadeen, Free Republic ought to be one of those organizations.

What say someone contact the 'lady'.

[Perdogg]

If you are rich and successful in DC and have to pay for sex, you are sad.

Even the most disgustingly fat rich guys get some in DC without paying for it.

[FreePaul]

...so pathetic they had to pay for it....

Yes, but we'll probably find out that in most cases somebody else paid for it. After all most money in DC is spent on bribes.

I hope all the Republicans called themselves Howard Dean, Big Head Ted or Harry Reid.
