The other day we examined why Law & Order: SVU’s Christopher Meloni should play Eliot Spitzer in the Lifetime Original Movie about the New York gubernatorial prostitution scandal.

True Stories of Law & Order: SVU - Law and Order: Special Victims Unit - The Sixth Year

A reader then posted a comment asking who was going to play Eliot Spitzer when the story was ripped from the headlines into an SVU episode - in that case the choice of Meloni creates a paradox which rips through the time-space continuum, so lets not tinker with relativity here for the sake of all mankind.

Now that the whole world knows what ‘Kristen’ (real name: Ashley Alexander Dupre, born Ashley Youmans), Spitzer’s $4300 call girl, looks like, it is time to decide who will play Kristen in the courtroom phase of the Eliot Spitzer L&O:SVU episode.

Again, no contest: Eva Mendez.
