Lawyers for Gov. Spitzer Case Attended Cornell Law School

Though the governor’s role as an ex-officio member of the Cornell Board of Trustees is often emphasized when mentioning former Governor Eliot Spitzer’s (D-N.Y.) downfall, many people overlook the fact that the attorneys working on the case are also tied to Cornell; two of the lawyers were educated at the Cornell law school.

Shortly after The New York Times revealed that Spitzer, a.k.a. “Client 9,” used the services of the debunked prostitution ring The Emperor’s Club V.I.P on March 10, he resigned on March 12.

Members of the press contended that Spitzer’s resignation came as a result of a deal he made with the United States Attorney’s Office.
