"Some Of New York's Wealthiest Might Get Charged In The Wall Street Prostitution Ring"

[KoKo]

After 17 people were busted yesterday for running a prostitution ring that catered mostly to Wall Street clients, word is that the Brooklyn DA is considering charging the "Johns," the clients who ordered the ladies, too.

So far, only 30 people total have been charged.

But everyone expects more people to be arrested, because basically, besides how the prostitution ring worked, all the Brooklyn DA (Charles Hynes) spoke about at a press conference covered by NBC is how this case involves some of "New York's "wealthiest," most "sophisticated" and "high class" people on Wall Street.

It seems like he's dying to tell us some of these names. In a press conference yesterday, he said:

"For people like that, money is irrelevant."

"Everything was about people who have unlimited money. Instead of paying $20 for cocaine, they were paying $170 for cocaine."

Those who used credit cards - many charging $10,000 per night - are at risk. So was it worth it?

Hynes says the men were paying "exorbitant amounts" to do "god knows what" with these women.

So last night, NBC went undercover and called the number on "http://angelsofyourchoice.com," one of the websites cited in the case. (Others: "Classy NY," "NY Adult Dating," and High Class NY.")

9. "might" being the operative word there.

All of that money, used on *crap* when people are barely surviving in this country. And people wonder why some of us cry "expropriate"?

13. I dunno...been married to same Guy...Stud..for a LONG TIME...he doesn't need Porn

and Neither do I...but then..we are told we are "unusual." Whatever... :eyes: ..But, we are an "older generation" and therefore are "suspect" here around DU...

Let's just say that I'm PROUD...of my PARTNERSHIP throughout all THESE YEARS...and while it's not always been easy to "make it grow.." IT WAS NOT IMPOSSIBLE...

But, so many of our friends and family..and others I read here on DU...have had so many things "hit them" that it was almost impossible for them to "hold relationships together" Yep...

But, please don't trash those of us...who did manage...somehow...and make us seem like "outliers," on some statistical chart which CNN/MSNBC and Others in the Media want to show as some kind of abberation.

Just saying..

I'm a feminist. I hate the idea of selling bods for money.
