BREAKING NEWS
The body of a woman found Thursday morning in Florida is evidently that of "D.C. Madam" Deborah Jeane Palfrey.
Cops say Palfrey's body was found in a shed near her mother's mobile home Thursday morning in Tarpon Springs, about 20 miles northwest of Tampa.
Authorities say they also found a suicide note, but they did not disclose its contents or how she killed herself.
Deborah was convicted April 15th by a federal jury for running a prostitution service that catered to members of Washington's political elite.
Palfrey denied her escort service engaged in prostitution, saying that if any of the women engaged in sex acts for money, they did so without her knowledge.
