While I was doing some reading about Senator Vitter and his association with the D.C. madam- most articles say that he won't be prosecuted for his Louisiana soliciting prostitution accusations, because of the Louisianas staute of limitations-- but possibly could still be for a felony in D.C. and also under this D.C. statute...
Old Bill and Monica could have been too...

D.C statute § 22-201:

Adultery Definition and penalty. Whoever commits adultery in the District shall, on conviction thereof, be punished by a fine not exceeding $500, or by imprisonment not exceeding 180 days, or both; and when the act is committed between a married person and a person who is unmarried both parties to such act shall be deemed guilty of adultery.

Now I never knew any places still had adultery laws on the books- as Montana got rid of theirs back in the 70's...I think it was done away with when the State Constitution was rewrote- because most didn't think it would stand a Constitutional challenge in this day and age...Before that we used to arrest quite a few guys when wives caught them in compromising situations and signed complaints on them :roll: Always seemed like the prosecutor charge the guy :shock:

I would imagine this law is not being enforced or prosecuted in D.C. anymore either-- or with the crew of Congressmen, politicians, bureaucrats, aides, and lobbyists there anymore the government wouldn't be able to keep up building jails... :wink: :lol:
