Jane's Place

Thats funny, tsk tsk tsk.
Hey check out my newest blogs.

LOL!!!
Look at all the attention she got......and job offers. Why was she so anxious to reveal herself after the bust? It was as if she had anticipated it. I wouldn't doubt that she was the tipster, because she had all her ducks in a row, just waiting for the ball to drop.
What do you think??

Now she is just a novelty for the media, but when she fades out of the spotlight, she will crave it again, so she will create a new scandal I'm sure!

You are right jmax123. She did know that ball was going to drop. When I cooperated, I was not given the exact date of when my madam was going down, but I had an idea. During that time the FBI and IRS agents that I reported to told me however that I needed to lay low and stay away from the press. I stayed away for four years. By that time life had left me in a blur. I was surrounded by scandal and felt the only way I could tell people that I had feeling about this as well was to write a book. But I was so ashamed of myself when the book came out that I did very little press. Not to mention the fact that I had a huge drinking and drug problem. Getting publicity made my problems worse, not better.

Kristen will be given immunity to testify against everyone. That means she can't do press and can't exploit the situation until it has seen it's day in court. If she doesn't choose immunity, she will be charged and face jail-time.

Wow! It's awful that you had to be put in that position. You did what you had to do.
That's nothing to be ashamed of!

I know a woman who was a call girl and told me so many wild real life stories, and she had kept a journal of events that were true, but hard to believe for most people, and planned to eventually write a book. That would have been a book you couldn't put down from the previews I heard! But she never got around to it. After all of this, and her being in the life for 30 years, first as a go-go dancer, then a burlesque queen, then an escort, then a peep show artist, and then a street walker------she has a lot to say!
Unlike her co-workers, she never did drugs, she was just a drinker though, but not smart enough to work without a manager.

This is inspiring me to want to contact her and maybe get her to actually put her mind to writing the book......I bet it would be a best seller!
She is so down and out financially now. This book could turn everything around again for her.
Nothing to be ashamed of at all. Her favorite saying is "to each his own" since I've known her.

I can't imagine her agreeing to do a 12-step program, although I'm sure it would help her.
She started as a Barbizon grad; trying to get in the top modeling agencies. When she was turned away for not being perfect, she was rebellious because being on a stage was her dream. No modeling agency was going to take that away from her! That's why she started dancing in clubs.
She is/was a simple person, and her pseudo-boyfriend learned that he could take advantage of that, so he figured he could make a living off her and encouraged her go out and make more money. Her loyalty to him, was stronger than her common sense-----as if he brainwashed her. At one point he even introduced her to to another woman he took in, and had her introduce this new woman as her "wife in law" ......that threw me for a loop! Whoa! Can you imagine that?

I agree richter! It's scary, the message today's teens are getting from this incident.
The media is feeding off scandals like leeches and glamourizing the bad girl image. This is going to make for some difficult parenting to teenage girls.
I can already see the result on myspace-----girls that will never find out who they really are, because their top priority is trying to follow a pre-set image. It's sad, isn't it? It's almost like voluntary identity theft.

405,
I can't believe that these publishers don't see the value in a book written by someone who walked the walk!
No disrespect to Dr. Phil, but if I were looking for help, I would prefer to consult with someone who found their own way out. Only people like you who struggled through the life can give precision advice. A psychologist's advice would be too generalized.
Everything boils down to marketability, so if you created a scandal yourself, and got your name out, publishers would be lining up to bid on your book rights! Quality doesn't count for much anymore these days!

Here's a question: I heard that Kristin has made millions since this hit the media. Wasn't there a new law passed that you can't profit off of committing a crime? But I guess it's a grey area because she is supposedly selling music and not sex.

I would love to see your web site. What is the URL? Or if you don't want to post it here, please email me. jmax123@aol.com. Also, Fox would probably do a feature story about your site if you sent them a press release. Once you launch the site and get free exposure from your press releases, you can show the publishers your portfolio of coverage and they would probably reconsider.
The press release should profile someone you helped too.
I used to launch new products for a living in the 80's and 90's so maybe I can help with tips I learned along the way.

Hello Jane. I am in the process of creating the site. I will take your advice into account. Thanks for the tip. A Fox Cable Channel Producer has asked me to participate in a show next week. I also got an e-mail about ABC-TV. I hope it pans out. It is important to give back for me. I want to help others. I will not stop. Eventually I will be heard and hopefully women will have a forum where their voices can be heard and know they don't have to deal with the demons alone. Even women who end up going to jail or an institution will be able to chat, I will not shut anyone out. I will e-mail you. :)
