Cristina Warthen, née Cristina Schultz, is a 2001 graduate of Stanford Law School and a fitness model who has been pictured in Iron Man, Muscular Development, Maxim, and Playboy. Schultz was in the news in 2009 as the alleged "law school escort," the woman who allegedly claimed to repay hundreds of thousands of dollars of law school loans through a career as a professional escort. Her story appeared on the front page of the Los Angeles Daily Journal on October 26, 2004. In 2004, the government filed a civil forfeiture complaint against money found in her safe-deposit boxes and apartment in January 2004, alleging that she was a professional escort with the alias "Brazil". In May 2004, Schultz married Internet entrepreneur David Warthen; Warthen intervened in the civil forfeiture case and filed a claim that the money was his gift to Schultz. As of September 2009, she is divorced and resides in Los Angeles.
