And of course, Not Guilty.

And let’s not forget the investigation of Lou Posner, a Tax Lawyer who was also laundering money to voter activism groups:

Cops say lawyers ran midtown brothel (Big Apple)
And of course, Not Guilty.
A Hooker Booker...
That must be an old photo. NY Post showed her with tats on the forearms and one above the bikini line.
An old photo - and one of the one we can get away with posting on FR.
The others that came up were, shall we say...?
The Hooker Booker?
...so Book Her.
But seriously why aren’t the actual hooker and john going to jail too?
IMO, every dime of my money spent enforcing laws intended to regulate consensual adult sexual behavior is a dime wasted.
Maybe those were painted. I paint tats on depending what I’m wearing.
Must be a tramp stamp...only one on the front for advertising?
Are those the people who give massages with a happy ending?
In my state, 20% of the destitute state's budget goes to fund the "corrections" system. Oddly, crime never goes down - it continues to explode.
In other news, the "education" system in my state needs "moor munny" - even though the children are becoming less and less literate.
Fortunately for the taxers, as the populace becomes less and less literate, they're less able to notice patterns and make connections...
That is why they haven't even thought about charging her. Any jury with a couple of red blooded males would hang at best.
Hollander?
Could she be the daughter of “Happy Hooker” Xaviera Hollander from the 1970s?
>>>Since the ring kingpin Mark Brener worked for the IRS, I doubt this is anywhere near over, investigation wise.<<<
Correction, certified by, not worked for:

Snip
Mark Brener, the 62-year-old alleged mastermind of the Emperors Club, was certified by the IRS to represent taxpayers in disputes, and assured his customers that he’d never get caught because he always paid his taxes.
Brener, who once worked for the Israeli national tax-collection agency, probably didn’t know that Spitzer was his customer, sources said.
Snip
Mark Brener is an emigre from Israel, a certified tax man in Israel as well as the US, and ran a brothel.
hmmmm ... Coincidence????
Calpernia turned us on to the use of stolen ID’s in campaign fraud. Monies are illegally obtained, then fraudulently converted and deposited into friendly offshore banks. The friendly banks then redirect the money to other accounts at the request of the fraudster.
REFERENCE The beginning of Spitzer’s end can be traced to three banking transfers that left his personal account at the North Fork Bank in New York spring and summer 2007. These payments totaling $15,000 attracted the attention of bank employees who monitor accounts for signs of suspicious activity. (NOTE: After 911, money-laundering laws were significantly tightened, requiring banks to file so-called “suspicious activity reports” whenever there is evidence that clients might be trying to sidestep routine regulations).
Spitzer’s money transfers to a company called QAT International Inc – later revealed to be a front for Brener's Emperors Club brothel– were reportedly considered by the bank to be an attempt to avoid another law that requires all transactions over $10,000 to be reported to the US Treasury.
Breaking down payments with intent to avoid US Treasury reporting requirements is an offense known as “structuring.”
Then-Gov Spitzer’s administration has also been connected to sophisticated "Destroyer Programs" that erase computer hard drives.
