Earlier this evening and while watching FoxNews, I read the ticker at the bottom of the screen about 66-year Kenneth Starr. The ticket mentioned – wire fraud, investment adviser fraud and money laundering. Hmmm: These three descriptive words look familiar to me. I wonder why?
I decided to search online for any news-related articles, and here is what I found:
Financial advisor to celebrities is arrested in fraud case
Kenneth I. Starr is accused of using at least $30 million in clients’ money to fund his extravagant lifestyle.

Reporting from New York —
A financial advisor to the rich and famous, including such Hollywood stars as Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes, was arrested Thursday on suspicion of using at least $30 million in clients’ money to fund his extravagant lifestyle — including a recently purchased $7.5-million condominium.
Kenneth I. Starr, 66, was charged with fraud and money laundering and held without bail in alleged schemes that siphoned money from wealthy clients, who were not named in the criminal complaint but described as a “hedge-fund manager and well-known philanthropist,” an “actress” and an “elderly heiress.”
Though the complaint by the U.S. attorney’s office did not specifically name any of Starr’s 200-plus clients, his roster has included other celebrities such as actress Uma Thurman, directors Martin Scorsese and Ron Howard and photographer Annie Leibovitz.
“Some of those clients were just pawns in a Ponzi scheme,” Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for Manhattan, said at a news conference in New York.

To the FEDs: So, the only time you people will spend OUR hard-earned taxpayers’ MONEY is when your clients, err, I meant you, victims are WEALTHY! Is this correct? Don’t you know anything about thugs in disguise when someone POOR calls for help? You guys are no good! You take too long, too. I’m making notations. My blood is boiling beyond `a little bit of frustration`!
If hell does exist, perhaps the sounds of people screaming in pain should remind all of you where your ugly souls are going for ruining the souls of innocents. Shall I make bloody screaming noises now or later? What justice will you do for the rest of us?
