It
was after 9 on the night before Valentine’s Day when she finally
arrived, a young brunette named Kristen. She was 5-foot-5, 105 pounds.
Pretty and petite.
This was at the Mayflower, one of
Washington’s choicer hotels. Her client for the evening, a return
customer, had booked Room 871. The money he had promised to pay would
cover all expenses: the room, the minibar, room service should they
order it, the train ticket that had brought her from New York and,
naturally, her time.
A 47-page affidavit from an F.B.I.
agent investigating a prostitution ring described the man at the hotel
as “Client 9” and included considerable detail about him, the
prostitute and his payment methods. But a law enforcement official and
another person briefed on the case have identified Client 9 as Eliot Spitzer, the governor of New York.
Kristen,
having already passed through the lobby, with its wing chairs and its
gilded half-clad cherubs, arrived in a small room in a quiet corner of
the “Club Floor,” a special wing for V.I.P.’s. A king-size bed
commanded the floor. Two photos — of the Capitol and the Washington
Monument — hung beside a wood-framed mirror.
As soon as she came
in, Kristen called her boss, Temeka Lewis, who was the booking agent
for the Emperor’s Club V.I.P., an online prostitution ring, the
affidavit said. Ms. Lewis told her that the client had arrived. He was
headed for the room.
An assignation of more than an hour
ensued, according to the affidavit, which was unsealed Thursday morning
in Federal District Court in Manhattan.
Room 871 had been booked
under the name of George Fox, a pseudonym that Client 9 had been using,
and one by which several people in the ring knew him, according to a
law enforcement official. However, a few of the prostitutes had
recently come to realize who the man really was, the official said.
The
affidavit said Client 9 contacted the Emperor’s Club last month,
requesting an appointment on Feb. 13 at 9 or 10 p.m. The appointment
was to be in Washington, and he sent along what appears to have been a
deposit of cash by mail.
Apparently, it was not his first time
using the service. The affidavit captures the almost mundane financial
back-and-forth prior to the meeting, quoting Ms. Lewis as telling her
boss, Mark Brener, the owner of the ring, that Client 9 had a $400 or
$500 credit to his name and wished to use it toward his next
appointment.
When Ms. Lewis spoke to the client on Feb. 12, the
affidavit said, she told him that his deposit had not yet arrived and
asked if he had sent it to a business known as QAT.
“Yup, same as in the past,” the client said. “No question about it.”
After
these initial matters were discussed, Ms. Lewis reached out to Kristen,
the affidavit said, writing in a text message: “If D.C. appt. happens u
will need 2 leave NYC @ 4:45 p.m.” The next day she sent along a
possible itinerary: Amtrak’s Train No. 129 departed Pennsylvania Station at 4:25 p.m. and arrived in Washington at 7:40.
Minutes
after sending this text message, Ms. Lewis took another call from
Client 9 and told him that his “package” had arrived. In a prior
conversation, Client 9 had already told her that he had booked a room
and had paid for it in his own name; now he asked who was coming. Ms.
Lewis told him it would be Kristen and, according to the affidavit, he
responded: “Great, O.K., wonderful.”
Still, there were some
“payment issues” to discuss. Ms. Lewis asked if he could give Kristen
“extra funds” at the appointment and the client said that he would see
what he could do. The agency did not like models to handle money for
future meetings, Ms. Lewis said, but this time they would make an
exception so they wouldn’t have to go through it again.
The
Mayflower sits on Connecticut Avenue, in the heart of power Washington,
a fixture in political circles nearly from the day it opened in 1925. J. Edgar Hoover used to lunch there. Franklin Delano Roosevelt stayed there while writing his 1933 inaugural address.
At
7:50 on the night of his appointment, Client 9 called Ms. Lewis, and
they discussed how Kristen could get into the room discreetly. Client 9
was not going to be there when Kristen arrived and, according to the
affidavit, Ms. Lewis said she would have preferred that Kristen not
have to give a name at the desk. In the end, they reached a tentative
solution for her to avoid the desk: The client would leave the hallway
door ajar and leave a key inside the room for her to use.
Ms.
Lewis told the client that his balance was $2,721 and that he could pay
an additional $2,000 — apparently for future appointments. He said he
wasn’t sure that he could find a bank machine that would give him that
much money, but he would try. He asked Ms. Lewis to remind him what
Kristen looked like and she told him, according to the affidavit, “an
American, petite, very pretty brunette, 5 feet 5 inches, and 105
pounds.”
The appointment was originally booked for four hours
and, as Client 9 made his way toward the room, Ms. Lewis asked Kristen
to send her a text message when he left. Kristen sent her a message at
12:02 a.m., the appointment having lasted more than an hour.
When
she called Ms. Lewis, they discussed the client’s reputation as a
“difficult” man who sometimes asked the prostitutes “to do things you
might not think were safe,” Ms. Lewis said. But Kristen, according to
court papers, was prepared: “I have a way of dealing with that,” she is
quoted as having told Ms. Lewis. “I’d be like, Listen, dude, you really
want the sex? ...You know what I mean.” The fact was that Kristen liked
him, though, and told Ms. Lewis that he wasn’t all that difficult.
“I
mean, it’s just kind of like ... whatever ... I’m here for a purpose,”
the affidavit quotes her as saying. “I know what my purpose is. I am
not a ... moron, you know what I mean.”
Ms. Lewis complimented
Kristen on her sang-froid, telling her, “You look at it very uniquely,
because ... no one ever says it that way.”
After that, they discussed her train ride home. And her share of the cash.

Correction: March 15, 2008
An article on Tuesday about the night that Gov. Eliot Spitzer of New York spent with a prostitute named Kristen in a Washington
hotel, as detailed in an affidavit filed as part of a federal
investigation of a prostitution ring, included incorrect information
from the affidavit about an Amtrak
train referred to in a text message as a possible itinerary for
Kristen’s trip from New York to Washington. Train No. 129 leaves
Pennsylvania Station at 4:25 p.m., not 5:39, and arrives in Washington
at 7:40 p.m., not 9. (The later timetable applies to Train No. 193.)
