I was lying in bed yesterday watching CNN when the news anchor announced the breaking news that Governor Eliot Spitzer was accused of being involved in a prostitution ring. According to the Associated Press Spitzer's involvement in the ring was caught on a federal wiretap as part of an investigation opened in recent months.
Governor Spitzer was the New York State Attorney General (he was elected in November 1998) when a member of his staff Mike Russo, Assistant New York State Attorney General, willfully and knowingly filed seven perjured declarations and affirmations in the United States District Court of Western New York.
The declarations were filed to prevent a jury from ruling that the Defendants violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended. I believe that by filing the perjured declarations New York State Attorney General’s Office victimized me. Once again I encountered racism, this time in the judicial system.
In my Book titled “A Case of Racial Discrimination and Retaliation Real or Imagined” I discussed some of the evidence including direct evidence and legal argument that I presented to the United States District Court Western District of New York, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court. The evidence proved that seven of the declarations, filed by the New York State Attorney General’s office were false.

No one is above the law. Governor Spitzer is a fraud and he should resign. He is the poster child for hypocrisy.
Spitzer’s staff engaged in questionable methods to deny a victim of discrimination and retaliation her day in court. Additionally, New York State Attorney General’s office with its Civil Rights Bureau must be held accountable for its actions in my case. That agency can’t be allowed to enforce the anti-discrimination mandates of Title VII with other employers and file perjured declarations in a case where New York State Department of Correctional Services and New York State Department of Civil Services are the defendants. The poor, women, minorities, and the mental ill expect the New York State Attorney General Office to protect the Civil Rights of all New York State citizens.
On May 28, 2005, an Erie County, New York Assistant District Attorney reviewed my documentation of multiple perjury allegations against New York Attorney General's Office and various New York employees.
I was told by the Erie County District Attorney’s office that the statute of limitations on perjury is 5 years. The declarations were submitted in September and November 2000. The perjured depositions were recorded on October 98 (1) June 8, 2000.
After his reviewed he referred me to the United States Justice Department. I contacted the United States Justice Department and at their telephone request e-mailed extensive documentation on May 29, 30, and 31, 2005.
In July 2005 Jane Wolfe and Allison Gioia both United States Justice Department attorneys, reviewed my perjury allegations and direct evidence supporting the allegations. The United States Justice Department informed me that they were referring my case to the FBI for an investigation. I telephoned the FBI and was told that they could not confirm or deny the fact that my allegations were being investigated because of confidentiality rules.

I am thankful that Governor Spitzer true character has finally been exposed. I don’t know what the future holds for me but I pray that Eliot Spitzer, his former staff, and New York State Department of Corrections and New York State Department of Civil Service, will finally be held accountable for their perjury.

When you seek to compare Gov. Spitzer to Bill Clinton, it`s a slam dunk.
You have Gov. Spitzer showing his value of women.
VS. Clinton`s hard dick and no bubble gum theory!
