Deborah L. Turbiville apparently liked to call herself ‘the Heidi Fleiss of Houston,’ a reference to the legendary Hollywood madam. And, like Fleiss, Turbiville’s now facing some time in the slammer.

The 33-year-old and her husband, Charles Fletcher Turbiville, 31, are charged with running one of Houston’s biggest prostitution rings. Police took them in yesterday and released them on $10,000 bail. The duo are due back in court on April 15th.

The couple’s alleged call girl operation ensnared 1,500 people, including doctors, lawyers and professional athletes, reports KHOU in Houston. The more pricey ladies of the night — some charged $350 an hour — were reportedly recruited by Turbiville via the free website Craigslist.com. Classy!

Much like DC Madam Deborah Jeane Palfrey’s little black book contained names of high-profile figures around Washington, the Turbivilles’s client roster may include enough big names to spark a citywide scandal, KHOU says. Police also think the couple laundered money made off the call girls into precious metals.

Investigators are trying to track down the Turbivilles’s ladies, as well as their clients. We’re sure some Houston-area hubbies are worried.
