but occasionally there is a high profile bust involving famous people like Eliot Spitzer, or the Zuma case up in Maine where the client list might become known.
In any case, theoretically, LE could get a warrant for arrest but simply appearing in a gal's contacts might not meet the probable cause standard to get a magistrate to issue said warrant. In any case, most LE is just happy to get the folks at the scene of the crime and call it a day.
(still not a lawyer)
If a well known provider is ever busted and convicted of prostitution, what are the chances LE then comes after clients? If nothing is recorded or witnessed can LE prosecute her clients? Lets say no discriptive acts discussed on email or etc?
Just curious what LE might do.

It is always possible. But a list of names would not likely be enough to prove a crime was committed.
They are not likely to chase down a bunch of guys, and try and trip them up to admitting to a misdemeanor. But most likely would if other factors are present that would elevate it to a felony.
to bring down TER as the center of a huge conspiracy to commute prostitution- a felony. Now you know why releasing a list is just the beginning. It may be a House of Cards, or not. A lot depends on their budget and the resources committed. If they have nothing to distract them they will keep plotting and digging looking for a way to bring it down. LE like this is very dedicated and they love the thrill of outsmarting you and me.
They are very patient. They love the cat and mouse game. The recent events can be traced, in part, to the said provider's "in your face" public attitude to LE. She taunted and tantalized them- and she became a target, with a little help from a couple of crazed hobbyists who quite possibly stoked the fires over and over. Did you see that they waited 6 months for the exact right time to bring her down. And then she starts advertising again- after being busted. The arrogance and narcissism are beyond the pale. This provider has put all of us at risk- and she could give a shit. Oh there will be the hardcore followers who will continue to see her, but more than likely she would have to start over, create a new persona, dump her previous name and review record. Because if she starts under a new alias (stage name) she shouldn't take the risk of someone outing her and linking the 2 names..IMHO
