Title: D.C. Lawyer Demands ABC News Keep His Client Secret
Post by: 240 is Back on May 02, 2007, 09:48:35 PM
The lawyer for a "government witness" in the federal prosecution of Jeane Palfrey, the accused D.C. Madam, is demanding his client's name not be broadcast by ABC News.

In a letter to ABC News, Steven Salky of Zuckerman Spaeder in Washington, D.C., said he has "reason to believe" that his client might be named in this Friday's "20/20" report about the alleged prostitution ring.

But Salky did not identify who his client is.

ABC News has made contact with an extensive list of men traced to phone records of Palfrey's escort service business.

In his letter to ABC News, Salky claimed broadcasting his client's name would violate a court order preventing "Ms. Palfrey from engaging in acts or actions against Government witnesses."
