The hooker booker accused of sending a high-priced prostitute to Gov. Spitzer<\/a>‘s hotel room was a church-going honor student who graduated from a prestigious school.<\/p>\n

Temeka Lewis<\/a>‘ tragic fall into a life of sleaze has left her family heartbroken.<\/p>\n

"Her mother is just all broken up," Lewis’ 79-year-old uncle said Wednesday at the family’s home in Harrisonburg<\/a>, Va.<\/p>\n

"She’s just too clean," said the uncle, who asked not to be named. "Even when she does the dishes, she puts on gloves. It just don’t make any sense."<\/p>\n

"No one in the community can believe that this could happen to her. I can’t remember her even getting a driving ticket.<\/p>\n

"There just ain’t nobody down here can believe it."<\/p>\n

Only 11 years ago, Lewis graduated from the University of Virginia<\/a> with a bachelor’s degree in English language and literature, a school spokesman said.<\/p>\n

"She was an honor student all her life; she’s from a good church-going family," her uncle said. "It’s just unbelievable."<\/p>\n

Lewis, 32, was one of two bookers for expensive sex ring the Emperors Club VIP – and took Spitzer’s call the day before Valentine’s Day, authorities said.<\/p>\n

In a conversation taped by the feds, Lewis set up the Washington<\/a> tryst between Spitzer and "Kristen," a hooker Lewis described as "an American, petite, very pretty brunette, 5-feet-5 inches and 105 pounds."<\/p>\n

"Great, okay, wonderful," Spitzer said, according to court papers that identified him as "Client 9."<\/p>\n

Spitzer told Lewis he’d leave his hotel room door unlocked so Kristen could get inside. He also haggled over money with Lewis, settling on a $4,300 payment, according to the court papers.<\/p>\n

Two steamy hours after Kristen – identified yesterday as 22-year-old Ashley Alexandra Dupré<\/a> – walked into the Mayflower Hotel<\/a>, she called Lewis to say her "date" was over. Spitzer left Kristen with the cash, the room for the night, cab fare and whatever she wanted from the minibar.<\/p>\n

"Kristen said that she liked him and she did not think it was difficult," the affidavit said.<\/p>\n

Lewis then told Kristen that Spitzer had a reputation with other girls. She said, "He would ask you to do things that, like, you might not think were safe – I mean … very basic things."<\/p>\n
