Call Girl Gets Immunity

Ashley Alexandra Dupre, the call girl whose meeting with New York Governor Eliot Spitzer brought down his career, has been given immunity to testify in the investigation of a worldwide prostitution ring, according to the New York Daily News.

Workers for Spitzer's election campaign have hired lawyers, preparing to meet with probers looking into whether Spitzer illegally used campaign donations to get to and from his trysts with call girls.

Kristie Stiles, a Spitzer campaign consultant, has retained criminal defense lawyer Charles Clayman, who declined to comment to the newspaper.

Sources told the Daily News that at least one other unnamed campaign worker has also hired a lawyer.

Prosecutors are expected to subpoena both to get them to turn over financial records of Spitzer's gubernatorial campaign.

Spitzer, the hard-charging governor of New York, resigned on March 12, under charges that he had spent $80,000 on a Manhattan call girl.
