Scottish 'madam' Anna Gristina to name clients on Dr Phil TV show Now Gristina, who was born near Edinburgh, claims she is to write a tell-all book revealing the names of the clients. But first she will appear on the Dr Phil show, a US television chat show, in which she promises to name some of her customers. Gristina was in court again this week to ask the judge for permission to travel to California to appear on the show. Gristina, who was arrested on February and spent four months in prison before being bailed, pleaded guilty in September. She first made mention of her plans to write a book after she was sentenced to time served last month. But legal experts have questioned whether, following her guilty plea, she will be able to make money from the venture. New York has laws to prevent criminals making money from publicizing their crimes. Michael Bamberger, a lawyer and expert on the First Amendment, told the Daily News: "What the statute basically says is a person is barred from making money based on 'the use of unique knowledge obtained during the commission of a crime. One could well argue that the names of clients falls within the category of unique knowledge, so this statue probably applies.
