Ken Starr caught for ponzi scheme?
Has anyone heard of this? I just saw it on the Huffington post but im not really quite sure whether this a joke or not. Apparently he was caught cowering behind some curtains in his enormous N.Y. apartment. I wonder if this is the same great moralist Starr, the darling of the right wing loonies, who went after Clinton? Forgive me if this is a stupid question

Manhattan, New York investment adviser Ken Starr – not to be confused with the
attorney made famous by the Bill Clinton-Monica Lewinsky scandal
– is the latest
shifty-eyed money man to get caught with his hand in the cookie jar. He has been
arrested by federal authorities for allegedly brewing a $30 million Ponzi scheme,
reports NBC New York. The full slate of charges include wire fraud, investment
adviser fraud, money laundering, IRS fraud and lying to a federal officer. Some of
Ken Starr’s clients include famous portrait photographer Annie Leibovitz, Uma Thurman,
Martin Scorsese and Wesley Snipes.

4. If your name is Ken Starr,
you're fucked anyway. Might as well try to steal a bit of cash.

you can bet they are anything but happy.

Looks like Al Pacino was one of the lucky actors in this scam.
