Meet “Kristen”; Update: $100,000 for her story?

My favorite liberal’s been haranguing me over e-mail about how prostitution is rarely a choice in any meaningful sense and why we need to crack down to keep more wayward girls from broken homes from wandering into “careers” they don’t really want. KP 1, AP 0?

She left a broken home on the Jersey Shore at 17 and came to New York City to work the nightclubs as a rhythm and blues singer. Now, at 22, she is the unwitting, and as yet unseen, star of the seamy drama that is the downfall of Gov. Eliot Spitzer of New York…

“I just don’t want to be thought of as a monster,” the woman said as she told the tiniest tidbits of her story. Born Ashley Youmans but now known as Ashley Alexandra Dupre, she spoke softly and with good humor as she added with significant understatement: “This has been a very difficult time. It is complicated.”…

Ms. Dupre said on by telephone Tuesday night that she was worried about how she would pay her rent since the man she was living with “walked out on me” after she discovered he had fathered two children. She said she was considering working at a friend’s restaurant or, once her apartment lease expires, moving back in with her family in New Jersey “to relax.”…

She left “a broken family” at age 17, having been abused, according to the MySpace page, and has used drugs, “been broke and homeless.”

She’ll be able to re-up with that lease once the Enquirer comes calling. Here’s her MySpace page, which is linked directly by the Times. Exit question equal time: The Today Show took a decidedly more libertarian view of high-priced call girls this morning.

If Spitzer was a Democrat, Larry Flynt of Hustler would be showering her with money.

What does Eliott offer her to keep quiet?

His mob pals will make her an offer she can't refuse.

" The story is worth a lot more than that."

If it's true. It could be BS.

If he follows the Clinton model, she stays quiet, she stays alive.

Then, after the next big news cycle when she's been forgotten about, a short quick, ride to Ft. Marcy Park (or the Hudson River).

And as malicious a little rat as Spitzy is, I fully expect it.

she should think long and hard about what she does. If she shuts up and lies low this will blow over and everyone will forget about her. If she milks it for all it’s worth she goes through the rest of her life well known as “the whore who brought down the Governer”. Is it worth it?

You're doubtless correct — her “story” is worth a lot more than $100k — especially if it's published in a picture book. However, as several others have pointed out — her actual charge-out rate was actually ‘only’ $1000/hr. A good portion of that would have gone to the pimping agency. It would probably take her 125 hours to haul down $100,0000.

but she won't be able to attract any decent guy - Don't bet on it; have a client typical nice guy, great businessman that married a big time porno star that had made millions on the Internet.

Monica may have weight problems at times, but she is a beautiful woman. Much prettier than Kristen.

My question is why isn’t she in jail?

And what about the Emperors Club? They could easily get them on tax evasion and more.

I’ve gotta imagine that Hefner will outbid that, but he’ll want pictures.

Hef wouldn't want anything to do with this ho.

The scandalous story and the girl behind it is more suited for Hustler.

Why aren’t people like Anna Nicole Smith, ZsaZsa Gabor prosecuted for prostitution. She accepted money and gifts in exchange for sex.

Why prosecute this woman and not people like them?

I hate to bring this up and all...but can’t we assume she didn’t pay income tax on those numerous $5500 tricks she turned? And if so, we know for a fact that the IRS pursues criminals NOT for the supposed crimes that brought in the money, but the fact that the FEDs didn’t get their cut. Al Capone ring a bell here??? Oh wait - who becomes the REAL pimp in this case!!!

“Kristen” is pretty in a regular girl sort of way.
She just isn’t worth paying for above dinner and dancing.
Monica is nasty, I wouldn’t have taken her home from a bar in my worst “beer goggle” days.

Right up there with tort lawyers. Same profession though right?
