David Walker: Banker & Alleged Madam, The mystery banker who was with the accused millionaire madam when she was busted last month was unmasked Wednesday as a Morgan Stanley senior vice president.

David Walker, 47, was talking to Anna Gristina on Feb. 22 about ways to expand her empire when she was arrested, prosecutors said.

Walker, who works in the investment bank’s wealth management unit, flatly denied ever working with Gristina.
The midtown moneyman has not been charged, but he admitted he knew the alleged flesh peddler, describing her as generous and loving.

“She was the mom next door,” Walker told DNAinfo.com. “She had plenty of other people at Morgan Stanley. I don’t know why they’re talking about me.”

A Morgan Stanley spokesman did not return requests for comment.
Walker’s identity was revealed on the same day a veteran NYPD sergeant linked to Gristina was summoned by Internal Affairs Bureau investigators.

A lawyer for Richard Wall, 35, said the 14-year veteran surrendered his on-duty memo books dating back the last five years – the length of time the now jailed Gristina was under investigation.

“The sergeant has absolutely no connection whatsoever to this alleged prostitution ring,” said the cop’s lawyer, Andrew Quinn. “He doesn’t know this alleged madam.”
