High-Profile Wiretapping Trial Wrapping Up
August 26, 2008, 9:58 AM PDT 
LOS ANGELES -- A federal prosecutor has started wrapping up
his case against Hollywood private eye Anthony Pellicano and a
high-powered lawyer.In his closing argument Tuesday, Assistant U.S. Attorney Daniel Saunders claims the defendants' taped phone calls to each other show they were illegally wiretapping, even though the alleged wiretap recordings have never been found. Saunders did play a phone conversation for jurors in which Pellicano tells attorney Terry Christensen that all the information he will be gathering will be kept between them. Christensen agrees. Saunders calls it the birth of a conspiracy. The defendants are accused of recording phone conversations of Lisa Bonder Kerkorian, the former wife of billionaire investor Kirk Kerkorian, in an effort to disprove her claims that the MGM mogul was the father of her young daughter.
