A PROSTITUTE working for alleged "soccer mum madam" Anna Gristina told investigators she was paid to have sex with former Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards while he was on a fundraising visit to New York, local news website DNA Info said today.
The prostitute alleged that she slept with Edwards at an Upper East Side hotel in 2007 and that it was arranged through an Edwards aide with the assistance of a New Yorker familiar with Gristina's network, the report said.
The woman revealed the incident during a "detailed, firsthand account" given to New York investigators looking into Gristina's operation in 2008.
Edwards is the first high-profile figure to be linked to Gristina's ring.
DNAinfo was the first news outlet to report details of the now-infamous case earlier this month, a scandal that has titillated New York's tabloids ever since. Today's revelations come in writer Murray Weiss's On the Inside column.
