Anthony Pellicano found guilty

May 15, 2008 Anthony Pellicano, the former celebrity private eye who set up shop on the Sunset Strip and boasted clients who were some of Hollywood's rich and powerful, was found guilty Thursday of racketeering, wiretapping and running a criminal enterprise. Pellicano, who represented himself at trial and called just one witness, sat still and showed little emotion as Judge Dale Fischer read the jury's verdict, convicting him of all but one of the 77 counts against him. The jury found that Pellicano wiretapped a who's who of Hollywood, including CAA's Bryan Lourd and Kevin Huvane; Sylvester Stallone; Garry Shandling and his former girlfriend, actress Linda Doucett; Kevin Nealon and his wife at the time, Linda Nealon; producer Vincent "Bo" Zenga, his wife, Zorianna Kit, and brother, Jerome Zenga; Keith Carradine and his wife, Hayley Dumond; the late producer Aaron Russo, his sons, Max and Samuel, and his longtime girlfriend, Heidi Gregg; and Anita Busch, former editor of The Hollywood Reporter.
