I did a search of his name on msn and came up w this site
http://anthonypellicanoweblinks.com
- which has a a fairly extensive listing of clients, cases, etc. From the Web site: "A comprehensive free database to references on Anthony Pellicano, incarcerated "P.I. to the Stars" & his celebrity clients."
He started in Chicago in 1974 under the name Tony Fortune
Here's 1 excerpt from the Web site:
2000: Allegations were made that Anthony Pellicano, a veteran military-intelligence officer and so-called “Gumshoe to the Stars,” had staked out Nicole Simpson’s house. "Pellicano has more mob connections than J. Edgar Hoover". He was hired by Howard Weitzman in the John DeLorean case, his first assignment upon moving to Los Angeles in 1983 . In 1976 he resigned under fire from the Illinois Law Enforcement Commission after local newspapers publicized the $30,000 loan he’d received from Paul “the Waiter” Ricca, the son of mob boss Paul de Lucia – the Godfather of Pellicano’s daughters ...Donald Re, Pellicano's attorney (a former law partner of Howard Weitzman) also represented A.C.Cowlings, a friend of O.J. Simpson and an employee of well known Mafia mogul, Joey Ippolito.
My memory is dinging me on another score. Pellicano and two other names of employed-by-Democrats-Democrats were employed / used by Clinton Admin. They were connected. And I can't immediately seize upon that name.
Bing! Terry Lenzner, 1998.
snips:
Terry Lenzner's CIA connection
-->snip:
President Clinton relies so much on private investigators to dig up dirt on political enemies, it's said he has his own private CIA. But an offhand remark by Terry Lenzner -- the super-sleuth most often hired by Clinton's attorneys to do the dirt-digging -- reveals there's more than a little truth to that quip.
In a sworn deposition, the former Senate Watergate Committee attorney turned gumshoe admitted at least one significant connection to the Central Intelligence Agency. Lenzner is apparently so well-connected to the CIA that, in an hour of need, the agency turned to him for help in shielding one of its most notorious employees from public scrutiny.
On March 13, Lenzner was deposed by Larry Klayman of Judicial Watch in connection with Filegate: the White House confiscation of over 900 FBI files on Bush and Reagan administration employees

That wasn't the specific article I was looking for. Here it is:
Richard Poe (nice photo of Jim Robinson at this link):
--snips:
"Some of the White House `secret police' were private detectives, such as Terry Lenzner, Jack Palladino and Anthony Pellicano. Others were Clinton loyalists embedded in federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies such as the FBI, the CIA, the IRS, the NTSB and so on. Many of these people are still in place, and still doing the Clintons’ dirty work. I call them the Shadow Team."
Prominent among the "White-House-orchestrated lawsuits" described in my book is the action brought against Jim Robinson and FreeRepublic.com in 1998 – ostensibly for copyright infringement – by the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times. The lawsuit, which nearly put FreeRepublic out of business, was stage-managed by Debevoise & Plimpton, a law firm notorious for its intimate ties to the Clinton political machine and to known operatives of Hillary's Shadow Team such as Terry Lenzner.
--end of snips
And a FReep Link, at onset of this investigation. According to this 2003 article, Mr. Fields HIRED Pellicano. But now says he didn't "know" nuttin'?
That's it -- Jack Palladino was the other name I was looking for.
