(Clinton Thug) Pellicano found guilty of racketeering and conspiracy
LA Times ^ | May 15, 2008 | Times Staff Writer

A federal jury has found Los Angeles private detective Anthony Pellicano guilty of racketeering and conspiracy. The verdict, which could mean a penalty of eight to 10 years in federal prison, effectively brings to a close the career of the most infamous private eye in Los Angeles -- a man who insinuated himself into the loftiest legal and entertainment circles in town and even consulted on law enforcement cases, until he became the subject of one.

Pellicano sat grinning and looking around room before the verdicts were read. But when he realized the jury had found him guilty, he crossed his arms, took his glasses off and looked around the courtroom without expression. A woman on the jury dabbed her eyes with a tissue.

Um...

(Note:Pellicano has often been confused with Jack Palladino, a San Francisco-based private investigator whose client list has included Bill Clinton and Courtney Love.)

Tell all about the cases he handled for the Clintons?
If he had documented evidence on the two grifters it would surely save his sorry butt.
Unfortunately with appeals he may stick it out forever. On the other hand he may understand that to delay only makes him a target for one of the other Clinton “detectives”.

How do members of the media look themselves in the mirror?

There are no mirrors in the check cashing line at the bank.

It was not Anthony Pellicano who was Clinton's bad guy.

Clinton's man was Jack Palladino.

So even though Wikipida says the two get confused there is no confusion and they were both hired to do the same thing?

I found this in regards to Anthoney Pellicano. It sounds like he did the same as Jack Pellidano

2/2/98

Washington Weekly: "The Clinton White House has its agents scouring the country digging up dirt on the 24-year-old girl who made claims of a sexual involvement with Bill Clinton. The old Bimbo Eruption Swat Team has gone into overdrive, recruiting private investigator Anthony Pellicano, whose last claim to Clinton damage control fame was his "scientific determination" that the Gennifer Flowers tapes had been edited. (An independent laboratory analysis later confirmed their unedited authenticity) Now Pellicano has resurrected Monica Lewinsky's old drama coach, who did his own Gennifer Flowers number on her just minutes before Clinton's State of the Union Address."

"Federal prosecutor Kevin Lally started off the trial by telling jury members Pellicano had masterminded a criminal enterprise, which discredited and attempted to destroy rivals of his famed clients.

It turns out that Pellicano was the audio “expert” who discredited Gennifer Flowers’ tape recordings so that the press could do what they desired at the time — disregard the voice of a certain former governor of Arkansas as he engaged in unseemly conversation with Flowers and disparaged Mario's Cuomo's Italian heritage and reputation.

That’s right, in 1992, in a bid to discredit, among other things, Flowers' audio recordings of conversations with William Jefferson Clinton, Pellicano was hired by Bill and Hill.
