95: Client 9: The Rise and Fall of Eliot...

True Crime Obsessed
About this episode
Eliot Spitzer was a rising star in the Democratic Party...But then he got caught having sex with escorts.

Client 9, as you might imagine, introduces us to a host of fascinating characters. From the take-no-shit escorts who love their jobs, to the weirdo downtown artist who....well, we're still not quite sure why he's here...to Spitzer himself--a powerful man with great intentions who simply thought the rules didn't apply to him.
