I would think that the reason more call girls don’t tell is that they are afraid of their clients and their own pimps/madams. The girl is small, the john is powerful. The organization they are working for is more powerful still. Besides, unless your client is busted for participating in an illegal prostitution ring and happens to be a Governor or some other high-profile person, what rewards are there exactly for coming forward? Would the hooker of the Mayor of Podunkville get a Penthouse spread?

Penthouse spread

Am I just a perv, or does anyone else catch the double entendre?

I think that the “ladies of the night” hear the Chandra Levy story and think twice on ratting out high-placed politicians.

Considering this petri dish's forte of taking on the John's who prefer the "risky" kind of acts, (read no condom and What What) she may have a festering long term sentence much greater than anything the legal system will ever (if ever) dish out.

Why all the high-price call girls won’t “go public”, along with all of the other good points brought up regarding income and potential retribution: One of Dupre’s biggest draws is that she is the “innocent victim” in this scenario. She didn’t seek the limelight and didn’t betray anyone, but got drug into it by Spitzer’s foolishness and the NYT’s sources giving her up.

Now I ain’t sayin’ that she’s lilly-white or that she won’t latch onto the oppotunity like a dog on a dish-rag, but the fact that she didn’t self-promote is earning her a lot of sympathy and street cred that someone who initiated the scandal wouldn’t get.

Prediction: More will do it, waves more will do it,

I disagree. Bad for business – and this racket is all about business. When all you’ve got in life is your ability to sell your vagina, you cannot afford to fall any lower. Zero is the only next stop.

latest report shows 1 out of 4 of our young girls have at least 1 STD. it seems though maybe not ALL are “doing it”, at least 1 in 4 appear to be doing so. we only have ourselves to blame for feeding this. if there were no demand, there would be no supply. Oh how i wish this whore would just go away. but she wont. too many sick guys jerking off over her. (same guys complaining that shes here).

To answer Allahpimpdaddy’s original question via Ace, there are several reasons these girls don’t rat out the celebs for cash:
1) She very may well not have known until after the story broke that he was The Guv. These aren’t the kind of girls that avidly follow politics, and even if you see his face in print on occasion, one middle aged bald white guy pretty much looks like another in her biz.
2) Doing the math. The girls that can charge $5K/hr aren’t stupid, either. If she does 10-20 gigs a month, minus agency charges, she’s still looking at making $25K a month. The Penthouse spread, interview fees, etc. is quite possibly less than a year’s income to her.
3) The crime angle. She knows what happened to Heidi Fleiss, and isn’t eager to go to jail. Ratting out the celeb is openly admitting to the crime, with all the hassle that will entail. Yeah, you may get a book deal, but if the government isn’t offering you immunity to testify against them (unlikely unless they’re politicians), all that money is going to end up paid to the lawyers.
4) You are guaranteed to get audited by the IRS. And they are going to COLLECT for every year you didn’t bother to file because you were “Off the grid”.
5) This girl also ain’t rich…why do you think she has a public defender? These girls are NOT smart about money. There are no offshore bank accounts in the Caymans. She’s quite probably spending every dime that she makes–clothes, spas, expensive tastes, furniture, etc. Yeah, you can blow $25K in NYC in a month very, very easily. She may not have so much as a simple savings account. But she knows that going public would pretty much kill her cash flow.
6) Organized crime. I think this was mentioned before, so it’s highly likely there are severe disincentives not to expose the organization.

meet client, check for envelope with name on it, strip, bj, spread legs, fake organism, shower, leave, give most of money to pimp agency, call drug dealer.

Given the filthy lucre at stake for any high-end call girl willing to dish dirt on famous johns, why don’t more do it?

In Britain its a minor industry.
