Oh, D.C. Madam. Are you trying to win us back after we broke it off with you for being a terrible tease? If so, this is a pretty good start. Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) admitted last night that his telephone number appeared in Deborah Jeane Palfrey’s phone records, making him the first member of Congress to be outed as a client of the so-called D.C. Madam. “This was a very serious sin in my past…

Deborah Jeane Palfrey is a cruel mistress. Err, madam. For months now we’ve been patiently waiting for the D.C. Madam story to break wide open with the release of some juicy names from the client phone records of the alleged former prostitution ring run out of the Pamela Martin and Associates escort service. But as you already know by now, the results have been largely disappointing, with former Deputy Secretary of State Randall Tobias the…

On Friday, Deborah Jeane Palfrey made her much-hyped prime time television debut on 20/20, chatting with Brian Ross about her D.C. escort business but saying her “gals” didn’t engage in illegal activities. Ross was a bit incredulous that she actually believed no sex was taking place, but Palfrey quickly confirmed that said face was indeed straight, pointing to a contract her escorts signed saying they would be fired if any criminal activity took place. While…

With something akin to glee the Post brings us the alternately colorful and shady life story of Deborah Jeane Palfrey’s attorney, Montgomery Blair Sibley this morning. At times, even DCist has wondered how Sibley, who represents the alleged madam in her civil case, could possibly be giving her responsible counsel. Besides allowing his client to give an interview with ABC news, sell off phone records to the highest bidder, tape a five-hour radio interview and…

It’s only 36 hours until Deborah Jeane Palfrey makes her national television debut on ABC’s 20/20, and we’re once again torn between hope and disappointment. You’ll remember our yawns at the leak identifying Harlan “Shock and Awe” Ullman as a former client of Palfrey’s escort service, Pamela Martin and Associates. The alleged madam then kicked up her media blitz by releasing a page of phone records and promising that her high profile customer list included…

In Deborah Jeane Palfrey’s continuing campaign to get the media to stop focusing on the titillating details of her escort business and instead investigate the myriad injustices being brought upon her by the government, she’s decided to release a page from her 46 lbs. of phone records. In an announcement today Palfrey, aka Miz Julia, aka Pamela Martin, said she’s decided to sell records from her 13-year-long run providing “legal” sexual services to the men…

Just when we were looing hope in the alleged D.C. Madam’s ability to deliver a home-grown sex scandal, two glorious things happened. First, Deputy Secretary of State Randall Tobias, director of U.S. Foreign Assistance and administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development, resigned after admitting he was a client. Then, we tore the ribbon off this gift from the front page of Sunday’s Post. Deborah Jeane Palfrey, known to clients as Pamela Martin, and…

We have to admit, our burning desire for a real-life Washington sex scandal probably causes us to pay too much attention to Deborah Jeane Palfrey. She, of course, is the owner of Pamela Martin & Associates, alleged to provide prostitutes to the D.C. area for some 13 years. But even our interest in Madam Palfrey doesn’t extend to listening to a five hour radio interview. Despite giving an “exclusive” interview with ABC earlier this month,…

Alleged “D.C. Madam” Deborah Jeane Palfrey has given an exclusive interview to ABC News’ Brian Ross. So, does this mean we have to actually watch 20/20? Yeah. We we guess that’s what it means. Via ABC News.com: Palfrey has claimed that her service’s clients were “upscale” and “came from the more refined walks of life.” In March, she made headlines by briefly offering to sell the phone records of her company, Pamela Martin and Associates,…

Clearly, the District is tired of being referred to as “Hollywood for Ugly People.” Instead, we’d like to be called “Hollywood for Ugly People Who Also Pay for Sex.” The Washington Times has the latest on a bomb of salacious gossip that may be about to go off in our fair city. For some background, The Smoking Gun first talked about the case back in October. It’s hard to know whether to be worried or…
