FOR 30 years Anthony Pellicano, P.I., has figured into the lives of Stallone, Roseanne, Wacko Jacko, Elizabeth Taylor Hilton Wilding Todd Fisher Burton Burton Warner Fortensky, Mike Meyers, John DeLorean, etc.

In November, a real-life Steven Seagal C-grade scenario led to extortion charges against someone else which led to whether this stare-down, arms-folded, in-your-face Hollywood detective threatened a reporter which led to the feds discovering weapons in Pellicano's office. He was arrested.

In the Sodom and Gomorrah hills of Hollywood, those special talents of Lone Ranger Anthony Pellicano will be missed.

How about in the Sodom and Gomorrah of Chappaqua? This is Hillary's personal gumshoe, the honcho of the bimbo eruption squad, the operative sent after Kathleen Willey, the guy who warned off Chrissy Matthews. I'd have liked to have seen those files myself.

However, as his lawyer Donald Re explained it to me, "The United States attorney won't dismiss those weapons charges despite these items being found in a search for evidence which now is a crime that didn't exist."

Welcome to the House of Mirrors that is the American "justice" system, Pellicano.

It's a travesty on the face of it, but that doesn't phase an a**clown US attorney a jot.

Strange eyes have seen confidential files on my celebrity clients.

"This is Hillary's personal gumshoe, the honcho of the bimbo eruption squad, the operative sent after Kathleen Willey, the guy who warned off Chrissy Matthews."

Think Hillary needs some quick cash for her presidential run? ;-)

It stuns me that the names Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Terry McAuliffe and Democratic National Committe never appear in this story. Private investigators learn as much or more about the people who hire them as they do about the people they investigate. It hurts my mind to think about the amount of dirt that Pellicano must know.

Actually, there are a few factual issues to clear up here. First, Pellicano was not Hillary's PI. Pellicano is an LA investigator, the other guy was east Coast. Similar name, entirely different ego.

Second, Cindy Adams has some pretty bad sources since she seems to have gotten the entire Michael Jackson child molestation pay-off case wrong. There was no threat of violence and there was no need to go to trial since MJ caved in when the $20M was demanded. Pellicano actually screwed Jackson by admitting publicly that Jackson was sleeping with the kid but 'not having sex' with him. It would have been worth $40M if he was actually 'having sex' with the kid. Pellicano is a good PI by many definitions but he is also an egomaniac and breaking as many laws as he enforces.

Having very close contact with the some of the paries involved in this case, its amusing that gossip columnists can pass much of this off as being legit. Considering that the actual parties involved are all sworn to secrecy, there isn't going to be anybody standing up to dispute her 'facts.'

Pellicano is one of many private investigators to work for the Clinton crime family. From http://alamo-girl.com/03742.htm an excerpt:

…… Flowers reacted to Clinton's "60 Minutes" appearance by releasing her now famous tapes to prove the relationship. But even the smoking gun recordings didn't stop Stephanopoulos and Carville, who charged that Flowers' tapes had been doctored. To back up the charge, the Clinton gang retained Los Angeles private detective Anthony Pellicano, who produced an audio analysis which Stephanopoulos and Carville touted as evidence that Flowers' tapes had been edited. The Clinton spin on Flowers' "doctored" tapes was widely circulated by the mainstream media. Pellicano came in handy again during the Monica Lewinsky scandal, when he unearthed Lewinsky's former boyfriend, Andy Blieler. In a nationally televised press conference, Blieler alleged that the intern had once told him she wanted to "go to Washington to earn my presidential kneepads." …..Flowers submitted her tapes for independent analysis by Truth Verification Labs, which found that they had not been tampered with in any way. Still, as late as February 1998, weeks after the Monica Lewinsky scandal broke, Stephanopoulos was still publicly claiming that Flowers' tapes had been doctored….."

Thanks for the clarification!

What's your take on the conduct of the US attorney? What is it with the people who run the country's "justice" system?
