In an ABC News interview in February, Davis said Spitzer had been an earlier client of her service but was banned because of his allegedly aggressive behavior trying to get girls to have unprotected sex with him. Her business came to a screeching halt last year in a crackdown that followed the revelation that the then-New York governor was client #9 of a rival escort service. Spitzer subsequently resigned from office.
Davis says that a \"spirited campaign\" pitting her against Spitzer, who has recently been spotted in public more and more after lying low for months, would reveal new details about his alleged liaisons with other prostitutes.
Davis said she believes Spitzer's time out of the public eye was \"orchestrated\" and said he \"had no intention of ever really leaving the public forum permanently.\"
\"There is far more to tell about Eliot Spitzer, the ladies and the way he treated them,\" Davis, who is currently working on forming a nonprofit group to lobby for the legalization of prostitution and to advocate for sex workers' rights, says. \"There is also far more to tell about Spitzer's relationships with multiple New York Escort services including several of my competitors when I was in the business.\"
Spitzer could not immediately be reached for comment.
