palfrey.jpgDeborah Jeane Palfrey, the accused “DC Madam,” filed a memo with DC’s U.S. District Court today, detailing her plans to move forward with a “Honey Pot” defense, under the representation of lawyer Montgomery Blair Sibley.

The memo alleges that “the United States Government has been directly or indirectly benefiting from the operation of her service by monitoring her customers and is thus equitably barred from prosecuting her,” according to Sibley.

The pleading identifies not only already-known customers of the escort service — Sen. David Vitter, Randall Tobias, of USAID, and Harlan Ullman, a government advisor — but also confirms for the first time that another individual with very high government security clearance — Ronald Roughead, former Army Colonel Defense Attache — was also a customer.
The Northern Virginia telephone number, 703-836-0522, was recently discovered within the records of Palfrey’s escort business, and it is associated with Roughead. Someone from that number dialed the service three times on December 17, 2005.

Roughead’s brother is Adm. Gary Roughead, chief of U.S. Naval operations.

“This nexus of CIA backed USAID, Senator Vitter on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and two beltway bandits appears to be more than a coincidence,” according to Sibley.
