6. please
people ROUTINELY make plea bargains,and in the case of a governorship, that is a good chip to bargain

solicitors of prostitutes routinely get probation at most, and a fine. the vast majority of the time

and given successful completion of probation - the conviction willusually get wiped

in many states, a continued without a finding means no conviction is ever filed as long as probation terms are met

mann act, structuring aside, this is technically a petty crime that is routinely dealt with that way for EVERYBODY.

spitzer deserves the same lenient treatment

he's still an arrogant idiot, and still committed a crime. not excusing him
