Deborah Jeane Palfrey, a loving daughter and sister, hung herself last week. I just wanted you to know her name. The "D.C. Madam" is how almost all of us know of her, and that's to our shame. We are taught to dehumanize prostitutes so much that we don't even use their real names. They're just "things." How much more don't we know about her? Was she protecting her clients, like David Vitter who did...

I wasn't expecting the traffic. In fact, it was the last thing from my mind when, late last week, I read the news that Deborah Jeane-Palfrey — a/k/a “The D.C. Madam” — committed suicide. I shouted the news to my husband, over the din of Dylan's babbling and Parker “watching” a Tivo’d television show [...]

Last week police said they found the body of convicted Washington DC madam Deborah Jeane Palfrey (52) after she committed suicide. Police said she had left suicide notes, but didn't release them at the time, so conspiracy theories surfaced claiming Palfrey had been murdered. Police have now released the suicide notes which were dated on April [...]
