91. Suicide my butt! She probably had Obama, Clinton, or McCain in the book of past customers! Maybe even all three!

92. That is terrible. More so because of all the men she serviced and were NEVER ONCE mentioned by name. I wonder where they would be right now if they were facing time for solicitation and having to explain to their wives and families what they were doing hiriing a madame to get laid. Disgusting. Just proves once again that the law is NEVER on the side of the woman.

93. ....no one understands that suicide ocurrs when the pain to stay is greater that the pain to leave.
but
the pain remains for those left behind. It's all about the pain.

May Deborah Jeane Palfrey find her peace.

from a mother who is left behind.

94. Can't wait to see what Greta Von Susteran, Nancy Grace, and Geraldo Rivera have to say.

I agree this was no suicide and she was hanged with lots of help from her customers before she "hung" them.

If this lady really feared for her life, she certainly has records elsewhere in safe keeping. Maybe she left them in a package with someone she trusted with instructions to mail them immediately if she was found dead to someone who would expose all. We can only hope.

98. D.C. killed her. She did not kill herself. Not suicide, more like murder. She knew too many people.

99. She would have never gotten 50 years and knew it. She wasn't scared enough to take her own life. This reeks of foul play.

100. Yeah, suicide, sure. I smell another Arkansas mafia special.

101. What a dirtbag. What a piece of crap. I don't give a rat's ass what she did when she was alive, but to do that to her mother???? What a monster. If she was going to do something so completely selfish, she should've been respectful enough to spare her mother that heartbreak. God bless her mom.

102. Beth...at the end of the day, it is her mother who will suffer until she takes her last breath...what a vision for her to see.

103. It would be most interesting if the candidates running for election were asked about this, particularly McCain and Obama?

Our government officials must be stopped of all their wrong doing and that includes all the females as well as males.

This makes no sense and imo is murder. It was planned that she be found by her mother as a warning to her mother.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Clintons aren't behind this in some way. It seems similar to Vince Foster. This needs to be investigated very closely, especially since so many government officials were involved. You'd think they would insist on such in order to clear their name.

104. " I think she was murdered..."No child would do this.. only to be found by their mother...I hope the diaries come out with all the names...and the NEWS PEOPLE publish them....Just wishing

105. She was murdered. With what she knew, she was able to destroy lives. Desperate people do desperate things...
