Questian about Eliot Spitzer

This is a guy who made a name for himself busting high class prostitution rings, so why has nobody asked if he was just putting the Continental Clubs competitors out of bussiness? That could make this a RICO case, right? It seems obvious, am I wrong? Please, this is not a political thread. Just curious if anybody else has wondered about this.

Re: Questian about Eliot Spitzer

The only thing I know about "RICO" is that is exactly what he is, considering what he spends on hookers. And I also know that Mr Rico Suave will never be able to run for President. sucker!

Re: Questian about Eliot Spitzer

They are saying 80,000 total. He could hire his own massuese for a year, and get the happy ending.

Re: Questian about Eliot Spitzer

$80,000 (that we know of), either these chics do stuff my perverted ass has never heard of or this guy is a really bad negotiator.

Spitzer wasn't running a racketeer influenced and corrupt organization (RICO). Look at 18 USC 1960 - the RICO section of US Criminal code. It defines the elements of what RICO is.

I think he was using the girl for personal recreational activities and rewarding her with cash.

Re: Questian about Eliot Spitzer

If that were my husband, I would be SO pissed about the money! THINK of how awesome my truck could be with that cash! I'd make Air2air cry!
