An ex-prostitute who was busted in a police sting is running to become the first trans woman on the City Council — representing the heart of the Bronx.
Elisa Crespo, 30, is one of the candidates seeking to succeed outgoing Councilman Ritchie Torres in the 15th council district — representing Belmont, Fordham, Tremont, Mount Hope, Allerton, Van Nest, West Farms, and Bedford Park.
Torres — the first openly gay person to get elected in the borough — is vacating the seat in January after getting elected to Congress. A special election to replace him is expected to take place in March.
“I am no longer engaged in sex work,” she told The Post.
Crespo, who transitioned to female at the age of 15, said getting arrested and spending time in jail was a low point that triggered a turnaround in her life.
“It’s shameful. People are upset at the momentum my campaign is getting,” she said.
Crespo, a dues-paying member of the Democratic Socialist of America’s Bronx chapter, told The Post she supports state legislation to decriminalize prostitution — by no longer punishing paid sex between two consulting adults.
“Sex work is work,” she said.
