Truemors
Kristen, the high-priced prostitute described in a federal affidavit as
having a Feb. 13 rendezvous with Mr. Spitzer at the Mayflower Hotel in
Washington,has spent the last few days in her ninth-floor rental in an
upscale apartment building in the Flatiron district. On Monday, she
made a brief appearance in federal court as a witness in the case
against four people charged with operating the prostitution ring,
Emperor's Club V.I.P. In a series of telephone interviews on Tuesday
night, she said she had slept very little over the past week due to the
stress from the case.
"I just don't want to be thought of as a monster," the woman
said as she told the tiniest tidbits of her story. Born Ashley Youmans
but now known as Ashley Alexandra Dupre, she spoke softly and with good
humor as she added with significant understatement: "This has been a
very difficult time. It is complicated."
