: Legal Pad | LAHollywood private eye Anthony Pellicano convicted in racketeering case
By Jason Siegel
Private investigator Anthony Pellicano was convicted of 76 federal criminal charges on counts of racketeering, wire fraud, computer fraud and wiretapping.
Pellicano didn't testify in his defense to avoid talking about his clients.
This worked out well for his clients, who were questioned but not charged, the Los Angeles Times reported. His frequent employer and mentor, entertainment lawyer Bert Fields, was never questioned on the stand or charged, according to the Times.
Los Angeles lawyer Terry Christensen, the only lawyer indicted in the case, still awaits his trial. Christensen, managing partner of L.A. firm Christensen Glaser, plead not guilty to allegations that he paid Pellicano over
$100,000 to wiretap the the ex-wife of billionaire Kirk Kerkorian, during a high-profile paternity dispute
in 2002.
