BREAKING: Ken Starr, Clinton investigator, dead at 76
who helped impeach one president and defended another from the same fate, died Tuesday at the age of 76."We are deeply saddened with the loss of our dear and loving Father and Grandfather, whom we admired for his prodigious work ethic, but who always put his family first,: Starr's son, Randall P. Starr, said in a statement released by his family.
Born in Vernon Texas in 1946, Starr was the son of a Congregationalist minister. He excelled at school, eventually graduating with a bachelor's of history from George Washington University in 1968. In 1983, at the age of 37, Starr was nominated by Reagan to serve on the United States District Court of Appeals. Starr served as a judge until 1989 when he was appointed to serve as Solicitor General by President George H.W. Bush.
After Bush lost reelection in 1992 to Clinton, Starr ventured into private practice, joining the firm of Kirkland & Ellis. Starr was at the firm when a special three-judge panel appointed him to oversee the Whitewater affair in August 1994. After his stint overseeing the Whitewater probe, Starr returned to private practice. In his later years, he served as a high-profile in front of the Supreme Court, arguing several cases successfully.
