NYC- The self-proclaimed “King of All Pimps” has some advice for the Brazilian beauty charged with being the queen of a million-dollar Manhattan prostitution ring: “Just tell the truth” – but don’t rat anybody out.
Jason Itzler, who’s awaiting trial for allegedly running a Manhattan escort service to the stars, said Andreia Schwartz should “cooperate fully” with prosecutors, but not name names.
“Just tell the truth,” Itzler, 39, told the Daily News in a weekend jailhouse interview. “She should cooperate fully and divulge all her assets, where she’s got all her money hidden. It will help her in the long run.”
Itzler was aghast that Schwartz named Time Warner honcho Wayne Pace as one of her supposed sugar daddies. Pace’s lawyer has said his married client knows Schwartz, but denies any illicit relationship.
“I think what she did to that man is disgusting,” Itzler said. “He deserves his privacy. … I would never tell. I would die first.”
The publicity-hungry pimp said he doesn’t know Schwartz, but may have spoken to her once to recruit more escorts for his booming business, which reportedly raked in $3.6 million a year.
He scoffed at Schwartz’s front-page alleged hooker hijinks, boasting that he was in a different sex bracket, with the top hookers in the business catering to the richest johns.
“She’s nothing compared to me,” he said. “I had four billionaires. I had the dean of one of the top three law schools in the country.”
Itzler claimed high rollers paid a higher hourly rate for his princesses of pleasure than the $700 allegedly charged by Schwartz – and “I had a two-hour minimum,” he boasted.
Things haven’t been easy for Itzler, who’s been at Rikers Island for 16 months. He traded a swank condo and sex with his model girlfriend for regular beatings from fellow inmates.
“My life is hell now. No one here has graduated high school,” said Itzler, who went to law school. “I have no friends and no one to talk to. All I have are books. I am all alone.”
But he insists he has taken his lumps and bragged that he is close to two agreements – a plea bargain with prosecutors and a movie deal.
