On 17 June 2009 Patrizia D'Addario, a 42-year-old escort and retired actress from Bari in Italy, claimed that she had been recruited twice by a common friend, who paid her 2000 Euros, in order to spend the evening, and once also the night with Berlusconi. Magistrates in Bari were investigating the case. But Silvio Berlusconi denied any knowledge of D'Addario being a paid escort, "I have never paid a woman - he declared - I have never understood what satisfaction there is if the pleasure of conquest is absent". He also accused an unspecified person of maneuvering and paying D'Addario, accusations which she vehemently denied.
