WASHINGTON — Louisiana Sen. David Vitter said he had sinned and was sorry, hours after Hustler magazine told him his telephone number was among those disclosed by the so called "D.C. Madam."

The first-term Republican senator said "this was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible. Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife."

Vitter's statement said his number was on phone records of the Pamela Martin and Associates escort service before he ran for the Senate in 2004. Federal prosecutors have accused the owner of the service, Deborah Jeane Palfrey, of racketeering by running a prostitution ring that netted more than $2 million over 13 years, beginning in 1993.
