Although it’s true that it was his bank and later the IRS that first raised the red flags that initiated the FBI investigation of hooker-loving ex-Governor Eliot Spitzer, all the text messages and phone calls certainly didn’t help his case any. Considering he was the Attorney General of New York and busted up a few hooker and drug rings in his day'giving him intimate knowledge of evidence gathering and building a case'makes him even stupider for getting busted with any cell phone records whatsoever (read some of the texts here). Client-9 should have applied some covert common sense and bought himself a bunch of pre-paid throwaways like most responsible drug retailers do, shit even an episode in season three of The Wire covered disposable phones. Plus he could have went a step further and only texted, further reducing any identifying trace, since his voice wouldn’t have been captured like a fingerprint. Every major carrier offers pre-paids, so we took a look at some of the sleek ones'with dude spending $4300 an hour on prosties as hot as this, there’s no reason for him to get a chump phone'that could have helped keep Spitzer’s hot dog out of boiling water.
