Pellicano Trial Exclusive Audio: Hear Ken Starr's Call

Below is the exclusive audio of a phone call between Anthony Pellicano and Ken Starr. Ken Starr (no relation to the former special prosecutor) was Sly Stallone's former business manager. When Mr. Stallone sued him on Feb. 14, 2002, Starr retained Bert Fields, who recommended that he hire Anthony Pellicano. That month, prosecutors say, Mr. Pellicano wiretapped Mr. Stallone. The played the following recording in court (read about the day in court) in which Ken Starr asked Pellicano to go after Sly. In this tape, Pellicano says "Bert is like my blood." And all kinds of other good things about going after Sly.

It sounds personal...

Highlights:
Pellicano has no idea who Mort Zuckerman is, who has recently parted ways with Starr, after Starr says his name.

AP: You cannot say a word to anybody in the world about what I just told you... You are not going to tell Bert this, I am. So there's not going to be any communication between you and Bert. And you and I never had this conversation.

What a waste of taxpayers money. In my opinion, Anthony Pellicano is going to be acquitted of all charges. The one alleged audio file which was alleged to be a wiretap proves nothing. It may or may not be a wiretap, the only thing for certain is that it is an audio file. Huge amounts of reasonable doubt exists.

The same goes for the conspiracy charge, I don't buy it and I don't think that the jury will buy it.

Anthony Pellicano will come out of this a winner, he will write a book, star in a movie about the case and be more in demand than ever as a private investigator. Why? He knows too much and people know it.
