Follow me on:

Deborah Jean Palfrey, also know as the D.C. Madam, was found dead in a shed by her mother's house in Florida. According to police, she committed suicide by hanging. Palfrey was facing sentencing on July 24, after being found guilty of running a prostitution service and convicted of money laundering, using the mail for illegal purposes and racketeering. Police say suicide letters were found, but would not disclose the content of the letters.

Poll: Was the government too aggressive in its prosecution of Palfrey?
