Dear Judge Snyder:
 
You are an accomplished and qualified woman seeking to be elected as the highest law-enforcement officer of New York County. I have attempted to pose an important public policy question to your opponent Cyrus Vance, Jr. without success. Now I wish to pose this same question to you as you seek the votes of women across Manhattan.
 
I supplied high price escorts for Eliot Spitzer during the time he was both Attorney General and Governor. Mr. Spitzer was good for a least one call a week for many years and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on call girls at both the agency I ran and several others. When this became public I was charged and pled guilty to the promotion of prostitution. I served four months on Rikers Island when I could not post bail which was set at $2 million dollars.
 
Mr. Spitzer followed the same practice he pursued with Emperor’s Club VIP – sending multiple $5,000 checks to evade the bank’s financial transfer reporting requirements – a clear violation of federal money laundering statutes. He also transported the prostitute known as Ashley Duprè across the New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland state lines in violation of the Mann Act.  Former New York State Supreme Court Justice Ronald Tills of Buffalo was recently prosecuted for violating the Mann Act when he imported a prostitute from Hamburg, New York to Kentucky to perform sexual services.  Judge Tills was sentenced to one and a half years in prison.  Why not Eliot Spitzer? 

You were quoted in the New York Daily News as saying you would not accept Mr. Spitzer’s endorsement as Mr. Vance did, nor would you asked him to hold a fundraiser for you. You also told the New York Daily News that you “favored equal treatment under the law,” whatever that means.
 
So I ask you now:

• Do you think it fair and equitable that Eliot Spitzer violated multiple State and Federal laws and escaped prosecution while I was prosecuted and jailed for a victimless crime?  
• Is there, in this case, one set of rules for wealthy, politically connected men, and a different set of rules for average citizens who are women?  
• Do you think the way the court treated me compared to the way they treated Mr. Spitzer, was sexist? 
• Do you think Mr. Spitzer should have been prosecuted as I was or do you agree that he should pay no legal penalty for his multiple violations of the law?  
•  Do you think it fair that Mr. Morgenthau placed my bail at $2 million for a victimless crime while those charged with armed robbery have bail placed at far less?

I have accepted responsibility for my actions and have paid a substantial price. I have no intention of ever violating the law again and am turning the page and devoting my time to being an advocate of reform of the Criminal Justice system when it discriminates against women.
 
I look forward to your response and hope you will respond in detail to the simple questions posed within. 

I await your answers as you seek to be elected to this important office.
 
Yours in Sisterhood,
Kristin Davis

MANHATTAN MADAM:  VANCE SHOULD TELL VOTERS WHERE HE STANDS ON SEXISM OF CALL GIRL RING BUSTS

SHOULD RICH WHITE GUYS WALK WHILE WOMEN PROVIDERS DO TIME?

Kristin Davis, the Manhattan Madam who supplied call girls for Spitzer while he was both Attorney General and Governor wants to know if Manhattan District Attorney candidate Cyrus Vance thinks it's fair that she was charged with promoting prostitution and did four months on Rikers Island while Spitzer walked away without being prosecuted.

Spitzer is hosting a fundraiser at Spitzer’s Park Avenue Apartment on Wednesday August 5^th.

“Vance wants to be DA," said Davis. “  Does he think it is fair and equitable that a  rich well connected white  man  like  Spitzer  violated the law but avoided prosecution while an “up-from-nothing” entrepreneurial woman like me  did hard-time on Rikers Island, much of it  in solitary confinement, for my  role in supplying girls to the rich and famous.”
 
Davis noted that Spitzer violated both Federal money laundering laws and the Mann Act in his DC tryst with hooker Ashley Duprè.  “Polygamist Warren Jeffs was prosecuted for violation of the Mann Act, transporting women over state lines for sexual purposes last year- why not Eliot Spitzer?” said Davis.
 
Davis was slapped with $2 million in bail and was remanded to Rikers Island when she could not pay after the Feds seized all of her assets. Now out on probation, Davis has become an advocate for the legalization, regulation and taxation of prostitution while finishing her studies for an MBA.  Davis previously managed a hedge fund prior to founding the most successful multi-million dollar escort service in US history.

“My prosecution and Spitzer’s pass demonstrates both the sexism and selective prosecution by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office as well as the fundamental inequities in our criminal justice system,” said Davis. Vance should be ashamed to have Spitzer’s support.”
 
Davis says she may hold a press conference outside the Spitzer fundraiser to confront Vance about his views on whether Spitzer should have been prosecuted like everyone else involved in the controversy.  Davis also says she will seek the views of Leslie Crocker Snyder and Richard Aborn, the other candidates for DA, before the September primary.
 
"Voters, particularly women, have a right to know if these candidates think my treatment was fair compared to Client # 9," said Davis.
