EX-MADAM BLASTS LACK OF PATERSON CHARGES
Kristin Davis, Independent candidate for Governor and ex-Manhattan Madam who supplied escorts for Governor Eliot Spitzer today blasted the decision by Judge Judith Kaye not to charge Paterson for interfering with the victim in a battery case by calling the victim and ordering the State Police to intimidate the victim from testifying against her assailant, a top Paterson Aide.
"This is a another example of the political class breaking the law and abusing the public trust," said Davis. "As with Spitzer and Montserrat the well connected avoid punishment while the average person is prosecuted. These men abuse women and pay no price. It's outrageous".
"A week later the Governor gave his wife's employer a $287 Million dollar no bid contract," said Davis. "The law just applies to the poor, minorities and women."
Davis spent 4 months on Rikers Island after pleading guilty to promoting prostitution while her client, Spitzer went unpunished. Davis, a businesswoman, entrepreneur, feminist and libertarian is collecting 15,000 valid signatures to appear on the November ballot.
