About Kathy Willets

Kathy Willets (born April 24, 1958 in New York City, USA) is a former stock broker turned American pornstar and escort, formerly married to Jeffrey "Jeff" Willets (born 1950 - died in 2022). She gained considerable fame (or notoriety) during her arrest and subsequent trial in the early 1990s. Police began investigating her activities after an elderly client decided that he wanted Kathy all to himself, and mistakenly thought that going to the police would allow him to have her all to himself, not thinking that once he did go to the police, she would be investigated, and if charges were deemed appropriate, she would be charged with a crime. In July of 1991, the Willetses were both arrested. Kathy was charged with prostitution, while Jeff was charged with living off the proceeds of prostitution; both were also charged with illegal wiretapping. As details of the case emerged, a media frenzy centered around south Florida. Not only was Jeff Willets a deputy sheriff for Broward County, but the evidence seized included videotapes, notebooks, and other information that indicated that several of Kathy's "clients" had been prominent, wealthy members of the area's social and political scene.

Her story was carried on every major news program, and it caused a stir internationally. Her fame was so large that she actually received mail from foreign countries that were addressed only to "Kathy Willets, Fla. USA." Her exposure included shows on A&E, City Confidential, American Justice;, Court TV, CNN, MSNBC, "E" Channel, Fox News, UPN Extra, Hard Copy, Current Affair, Maury Povich, Geraldo, Jenny Jones, Sally Jesse, Sonya Live, and Larry King Live.
