He is best known for heading an investigation of members of the [[Presidency of Bill Clinton|Clinton administration]], known as the [[Whitewater controversy]]. Starr served as a federal [[United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit|Court of Appeals]] judge and as [[United States Solicitor General|solicitor general]] for [[George H. W. Bush]]. He received the most public attention for his tenure as [[Special prosecutor|independent counsel]] while [[Bill Clinton]] was [[President of the United States|U.S.&nbsp;president]]. Starr was initially appointed to investigate the suicide of deputy White House counsel [[Vince Foster]] and the [[Whitewater controversy|Whitewater]] real estate investments of Bill Clinton. The three-judge panel charged with administering the [[Ethics in Government Act]] later expanded the inquiry into numerous areas including suspected [[perjury]] about Bill Clinton's sexual activity with [[Monica Lewinsky]]. After more than four years of investigation, Starr filed the [[Starr Report]], which alleged that Bill Clinton lied about the existence of the affair during a [[sworn declaration|sworn]] deposition. The allegation led to the [[impeachment of Bill Clinton]] and the five-year suspension of Clinton's law license. Starr served as the dean of the [[Pepperdine University School of Law]]. He was later the president and chancellor of [[Baylor University]] in [[Waco, Texas]], from June 2010 until May 2016, and was the Louise L. Morrison chair of constitutional law at [[Baylor Law School]]. On May 26, 2016, following an investigation into the mishandling by Starr of [[Baylor University sexual assault scandal|several sexual assaults at the school]], Baylor University's board of regents announced that Starr's tenure as university president would end on May 31.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/2020/01/18/797622342/after-a-fall-at-baylor-ken-starr-became-a-fox-regular-and-then-a-trump-defender|title=After a Fall at Baylor, Ken Starr Became a Fox Regular, and then, A Trump Defender}}</ref> The board said he would continue as chancellor, but on June 1, Starr told [[ESPN]] that he would resign his position effective immediately.<ref name=espnresign>{{cite news|url=http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/15875833/kenneth-starr-resign-chancellor-baylor-bears-continue-teach |publisher=ESPN|date=June 1, 2016|access-date=June 1, 2016|title=Kenneth Starr stepping down as Baylor chancellor}}</ref> On August 19, 2016, Starr announced he would resign from his tenured professor position at [[Baylor Law School]], completely severing his ties with the university in a "mutually agreed separation".<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.wfaa.com/news/local/texas-news/former-president-ken-starr-leaving-baylor-faculty/302855524|title=Former Baylor president Ken Starr leaving university's faculty|last=TEGNA|language=en-US|access-date=August 19, 2016}}</ref> On January 17, 2020, Starr joined President [[Donald Trump]]'s legal team during his [[First impeachment trial of Donald Trump|first impeachment trial]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/17/politics/donald-trump-impeachment-legal-team-alan-dershowitz-ken-starr/index.html|title=Trump adds Ken Starr and Alan Dershowitz to impeachment defense team|last1=Collins|first1=Kaitlin|last2=Brown|first2=Pamela|last3=Liptak|first3=Kevin|publisher=CNN|date=January 17, 2020|access-date=January 27, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/17/us/politics/ken-starr-impeachment-trump-clinton.html|title=Ken Starr Returns to the Impeachment Fray, This Time for the Defense|last=Baker|first=Peter|date=January 17, 2020|work=The New York Times|access-date=January 18, 2020|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331}}</ref> == Early life == Starr was born near [[Vernon, Texas]], and was raised in [[Centerville, Texas]].

Kirkland, like several other major law firms, was representing clients in litigation with the government, including tobacco companies and auto manufacturers. The firm itself was being sued by the [[Resolution Trust Company]], a government agency involved in the Whitewater matter. Additionally, Starr's own actions were challenged because Starr had, on one occasion, talked with lawyers for Paula Jones, who was suing Bill Clinton over an alleged sexual harassment. Starr had explained to them why he believed that sitting U.S.&nbsp;presidents are not immune to civil suit.<ref>{{cite news|title=Can the President Be Indicted?

Starr would later receive authority to conduct additional investigations, including the firing of [[White House travel office controversy|White House Travel Office]] personnel, potential political abuse of confidential [[filegate|FBI&nbsp;files]], [[Madison Guaranty]], [[Rose Law Firm]], [[Paula Jones]] [[Clinton v. Jones|lawsuit]] and, most notoriously, possible perjury and obstruction of justice to cover up President Clinton's sexual relationship with [[Monica Lewinsky]]. The Lewinsky portion of the investigation included the secret taping of conversations between Lewinsky and coworker [[Linda Tripp]], requests by Starr to tape Lewinsky's conversations with Clinton, and requests by Starr to compel Secret Service agents to testify about what they might have seen while guarding Clinton. With the investigation of Clinton's possible adultery, critics of Starr believed that he had crossed a line and was acting more as a political hit man than as a prosecutor.<ref name="timemag98">Lacayo, Richard and Cohen, Adam [https://archive.today/20130204082024/http://www.time.com/time/printout/0,8816,987779,00.html Inside Starr and His Operation], ''Time'', February 9, 1998</ref><ref name="froomkin">Froomkin, Dan [https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/whitewater/whitewater.htm Untangling Whitewater], ''Washington Post'', accessed June 25, 2009</ref> === Clinton–Lewinsky scandal, Paula Jones lawsuit === {{Main|Clinton–Lewinsky scandal|Clinton v. Jones}} In his deposition for the Paula Jones lawsuit, Clinton denied having "sexual relations" with Monica Lewinsky. On the basis of the evidence provided by [[Monica Lewinsky]], a blue dress with Clinton's [[semen]], Ken Starr concluded that this sworn testimony was false and perjurious. During the deposition in the Jones case, Clinton was asked, "Have you ever had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky, as that term is defined in Deposition Exhibit&nbsp;1, as modified by the Court?" The definition included contact with the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks of a person with an intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of that person, any contact of the genitals or anus of another person, or contact of one's genitals or anus and any part of another person's body either directly or through clothing.<ref name="deposition-pj">{{cite news|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/stories/clintondep031398.htm|title=President Clinton's Deposition in the Paula Jones Case|date=January 17, 1998|work=Washington Post|access-date=June 25, 2009}}</ref><ref name="king">{{cite news |url=http://edition.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/03/05/clinton.deposition|title=New Details Of Clinton's Jones Deposition Leaked|last=King|first=John|date=May 3, 1998|publisher=[[CNN]]|access-date=June 25, 2009}}</ref><ref name="hentoff">{{cite news|title=Above the law; Bill Clinton gets away with perjury (editorial)|last=Hentoff|first=Nat|date=January 29, 2001|work=[[The Washington Times]]|publisher=The Washington Times LLC}}</ref> The judge ordered that Clinton be given an opportunity to review the agreed definition.

Starr's investigation eventually led to the [[Impeachment of Bill Clinton|impeachment of President Clinton]], with whom Starr shared ''[[Time (magazine)|Time']]''s [[Time Magazine Person of the Year|Man of the Year]] designation for 1998. Despite his impeachment, the president was acquitted in the subsequent trial before the United States Senate as all 45&nbsp;Democrats and 10 Republicans voted to acquit.<ref>See [[Impeachment of Bill Clinton#Trial before U.S.&nbsp;Senate]].</ref> === Second thoughts on DOJ request === In 2004, Starr expressed regret for ever having asked the Department of Justice to assign him to oversee the Lewinsky investigation personally, saying, "the most fundamental thing that could have been done differently" would have been for somebody else to have investigated the matter.<ref name="media">''[[Deseret News]]'': [http://www.deseretnews.com/article/595109948/Starr-regrets-lead-role-in-Clinton-investigation.html Starr regrets lead role in Clinton investigation.] December 4, 2004.</ref> === Criticism and political satire === As with many controversial figures, Starr has been the subject of political satire. The book, ''And the Horse He Rode In On'', by former Clinton staffer [[James Carville]], attempts to portray Starr's time as special prosecutor in a comedic, negative light. At the end of his tenure at Baylor, many called Starr a hypocrite for playing a role in covering up the [[Baylor University sexual assault scandal|Baylor Football sex scandal]], considering how harshly he stood against Clinton in regards to Clinton's scandal.<ref name="nytimes.com">{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/books/98/10/18/reviews/981018.18learlt.html|title=Preaching to the Converted|work=New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://starrplay.com/images/pressclips/cindynew.htm|title=Cindy New|work=New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://starrplay.com/images/pressclips/timenew.htm|title=BackStageNew}}</ref> == Post-independent counsel activities == [[File:Ken Starr (49285075311).jpg|thumb|right|Starr in December 2019]] After five years as independent counsel, Starr resigned and returned to private practice as an appellate lawyer and a visiting professor at [[New York University]], the [[Chapman University School of Law]], and the [[George Mason University School of Law]]. Starr worked as a partner at [[Kirkland & Ellis]], specializing in litigation. He was one of the lead attorneys in a [[class-action]] lawsuit filed by a coalition of liberal and conservative groups (including the [[American Civil Liberties Union]] and the [[National Rifle Association]]) against the regulations created by the [[Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act]] of 2002, known informally as [[John McCain|McCain]]-[[Russ Feingold|Feingold]] Act. In the case, Starr argued that the law was an unconstitutional abridgment of free speech. On April 6, 2004, he was appointed dean of the [[Pepperdine University School of Law]]. He originally accepted a position at Pepperdine as the first dean of the newly created School of Public Policy in 1996; however, he withdrew from the appointment in 1998, several months after the Lewinsky controversy erupted. Critics charged that there was a conflict of interest due to substantial donations to Pepperdine from billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife, a Clinton critic who funded many media outlets attacking the president. (Scaife's money, however, supported the Foster-was-murdered theory, according to CNN, and Scaife defunded ''The American Spectator'' after it endorsed Starr's conclusion of suicide and mocked a Scaife-aided book.<ref name="jackson" />) In 2004, some five years after President Clinton's impeachment, Starr was again offered a Pepperdine position at the School of Law and this time accepted it. === Death penalty cases === In 2005, Starr worked to overturn the death sentence of [[Robin Lovitt]], who was on [[Virginia]]'s [[death row]] for murdering a man during a robbery in 1998. Starr provided his services to Lovitt [[pro bono]]. On October 3, 2005, the Supreme Court denied [[certiorari]]. (Lovitt was granted clemency and had his sentence commuted to life in prison without parole, on November 29, 2005, by Governor [[Mark Warner]] of Virginia.) On January 26, 2006, the defense team of convicted murderer [[Michael Morales]] (which included Starr) sent letters to [[Governor of California|California governor]] [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] requesting clemency for Morales.<ref name="elias">{{cite news |url=http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2006/01/27/state/n172048S85.DTL |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080328035349/http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=%2Fn%2Fa%2F2006%2F01%2F27%2Fstate%2Fn172048S85.DTL |url-status=dead |archive-date=March 28, 2008 |title=Ken Starr asks governor to spare condemned killer |last=Elias |first=Paul |date=January 27, 2006 |work=[[San Francisco Chronicle]] |publisher=Hearst Communications Inc. |access-date=June 25, 2009 }}</ref> Letters purporting to be from the jurors who determined Morales's death sentence were included in the package sent to Schwarzenegger.

He is best known for heading an investigation of members of the [[Presidency of Bill Clinton|Clinton administration]], known as the [[Whitewater controversy]]. Starr served as a federal [[United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit|Court of Appeals]] judge and as [[United States Solicitor General|solicitor general]] for [[George H. W. Bush]]. He received the most public attention for his tenure as [[Special prosecutor|independent counsel]] while [[Bill Clinton]] was [[President of the United States|U.S.&nbsp;president]]. Starr was initially appointed to investigate the suicide of deputy White House counsel [[Vince Foster]] and the [[Whitewater controversy|Whitewater]] real estate investments of Bill Clinton. The three-judge panel charged with administering the [[Ethics in Government Act]] later expanded the inquiry into numerous areas including suspected [[perjury]] about Bill Clinton's sexual activity with [[Monica Lewinsky]]. After more than four years of investigation, Starr filed the [[Starr Report]], which alleged that Bill Clinton lied about the existence of the affair during a [[sworn declaration|sworn]] deposition. The allegation led to the [[impeachment of Bill Clinton]] and the five-year suspension of Clinton's law license. Starr served as the dean of the [[Pepperdine University School of Law]]. He was later the president and chancellor of [[Baylor University]] in [[Waco, Texas]], from June 2010 until May 2016, and was the Louise L. Morrison chair of constitutional law at [[Baylor Law School]]. On May 26, 2016, following an investigation into the mishandling by Starr of [[Baylor University sexual assault scandal|several sexual assaults at the school]], Baylor University's board of regents announced that Starr's tenure as university president would end on May 31.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/2020/01/18/797622342/after-a-fall-at-baylor-ken-starr-became-a-fox-regular-and-then-a-trump-defender|title=After a Fall at Baylor, Ken Starr Became a Fox Regular, and then, A Trump Defender}}</ref> The board said he would continue as chancellor, but on June 1, Starr told [[ESPN]] that he would resign his position effective immediately.<ref name=espnresign>{{cite news|url=http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/15875833/kenneth-starr-resign-chancellor-baylor-bears-continue-teach |publisher=ESPN|date=June 1, 2016|access-date=June 1, 2016|title=Kenneth Starr stepping down as Baylor chancellor}}</ref> On August 19, 2016, Starr announced he would resign from his tenured professor position at [[Baylor Law School]], completely severing his ties with the university in a "mutually agreed separation".<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.wfaa.com/news/local/texas-news/former-president-ken-starr-leaving-baylor-faculty/302855524|title=Former Baylor president Ken Starr leaving university's faculty|last=TEGNA|language=en-US|access-date=August 19, 2016}}</ref> On January 17, 2020, Starr joined President [[Donald Trump]]'s legal team during his [[First impeachment trial of Donald Trump|first impeachment trial]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/17/politics/donald-trump-impeachment-legal-team-alan-dershowitz-ken-starr/index.html|title=Trump adds Ken Starr and Alan Dershowitz to impeachment defense team|last1=Collins|first1=Kaitlin|last2=Brown|first2=Pamela|last3=Liptak|first3=Kevin|publisher=CNN|date=January 17, 2020|access-date=January 27, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/17/us/politics/ken-starr-impeachment-trump-clinton.html|title=Ken Starr Returns to the Impeachment Fray, This Time for the Defense|last=Baker|first=Peter|date=January 17, 2020|work=The New York Times|access-date=January 18, 2020|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331}}</ref> == Early life == Starr was born near [[Vernon, Texas]], and was raised in [[Centerville, Texas]].

Starr would later receive authority to conduct additional investigations, including the firing of [[White House travel office controversy|White House Travel Office]] personnel, potential political abuse of confidential [[filegate|FBI&nbsp;files]], [[Madison Guaranty]], [[Rose Law Firm]], [[Paula Jones]] [[Clinton v. Jones|lawsuit]] and, most notoriously, possible perjury and obstruction of justice to cover up President Clinton's sexual relationship with [[Monica Lewinsky]]. The Lewinsky portion of the investigation included the secret taping of conversations between Lewinsky and coworker [[Linda Tripp]], requests by Starr to tape Lewinsky's conversations with Clinton, and requests by Starr to compel Secret Service agents to testify about what they might have seen while guarding Clinton. With the investigation of Clinton's possible adultery, critics of Starr believed that he had crossed a line and was acting more as a political hit man than as a prosecutor.<ref name="timemag98">Lacayo, Richard and Cohen, Adam [https://archive.today/20130204082024/http://www.time.com/time/printout/0,8816,987779,00.html Inside Starr and His Operation], ''Time'', February 9, 1998</ref><ref name="froomkin">Froomkin, Dan [https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/whitewater/whitewater.htm Untangling Whitewater], ''Washington Post'', accessed June 25, 2009</ref> === Clinton–Lewinsky scandal, Paula Jones lawsuit === {{Main|Clinton–Lewinsky scandal|Clinton v. Jones}} In his deposition for the Paula Jones lawsuit, Clinton denied having "sexual relations" with Monica Lewinsky. On the basis of the evidence provided by [[Monica Lewinsky]], a blue dress with Clinton's [[semen]], Ken Starr concluded that this sworn testimony was false and perjurious. During the deposition in the Jones case, Clinton was asked, "Have you ever had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky, as that term is defined in Deposition Exhibit&nbsp;1, as modified by the Court?" The definition included contact with the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks of a person with an intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of that person, any contact of the genitals or anus of another person, or contact of one's genitals or anus and any part of another person's body either directly or through clothing.<ref name="deposition-pj">{{cite news|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/stories/clintondep031398.htm|title=President Clinton's Deposition in the Paula Jones Case|date=January 17, 1998|work=Washington Post|access-date=June 25, 2009}}</ref><ref name="king">{{cite news |url=http://edition.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/03/05/clinton.deposition|title=New Details Of Clinton's Jones Deposition Leaked|last=King|first=John|date=May 3, 1998|publisher=[[CNN]]|access-date=June 25, 2009}}</ref><ref name="hentoff">{{cite news|title=Above the law; Bill Clinton gets away with perjury (editorial)|last=Hentoff|first=Nat|date=January 29, 2001|work=[[The Washington Times]]|publisher=The Washington Times LLC}}</ref> The judge ordered that Clinton be given an opportunity to review the agreed definition.

Starr's investigation eventually led to the [[Impeachment of Bill Clinton|impeachment of President Clinton]], with whom Starr shared ''[[Time (magazine)|Time']]''s [[Time Magazine Person of the Year|Man of the Year]] designation for 1998. Despite his impeachment, the president was acquitted in the subsequent trial before the United States Senate as all 45&nbsp;Democrats and 10 Republicans voted to acquit.<ref>See [[Impeachment of Bill Clinton#Trial before U.S.&nbsp;Senate]].</ref> === Second thoughts on DOJ request === In 2004, Starr expressed regret for ever having asked the Department of Justice to assign him to oversee the Lewinsky investigation personally, saying, "the most fundamental thing that could have been done differently" would have been for somebody else to have investigated the matter.<ref name="media">''[[Deseret News]]'': [http://www.deseretnews.com/article/595109948/Starr-regrets-lead-role-in-Clinton-investigation.html Starr regrets lead role in Clinton investigation.] December 4, 2004.</ref> === Criticism and political satire === As with many controversial figures, Starr has been the subject of political satire. The book, ''And the Horse He Rode In On'', by former Clinton staffer [[James Carville]], attempts to portray Starr's time as special prosecutor in a comedic, negative light. At the end of his tenure at Baylor, many called Starr a hypocrite for playing a role in covering up the [[Baylor University sexual assault scandal|Baylor Football sex scandal]], considering how harshly he stood against Clinton in regards to Clinton's scandal.<ref name="nytimes.com">{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/books/98/10/18/reviews/981018.18learlt.html|title=Preaching to the Converted|work=New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://starrplay.com/images/pressclips/cindynew.htm|title=Cindy New|work=New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://starrplay.com/images/pressclips/timenew.htm|title=BackStageNew}}</ref> == Post-independent counsel activities == [[File:Ken Starr (49285075311).jpg|thumb|right|Starr in December 2019]] After five years as independent counsel, Starr resigned and returned to private practice as an appellate lawyer and a visiting professor at [[New York University]], the [[Chapman University School of Law]], and the [[George Mason University School of Law]]. Starr worked as a partner at [[Kirkland & Ellis]], specializing in litigation. He was one of the lead attorneys in a [[class-action]] lawsuit filed by a coalition of liberal and conservative groups (including the [[American Civil Liberties Union]] and the [[National Rifle Association]]) against the regulations created by the [[Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act]] of 2002, known informally as [[John McCain|McCain]]-[[Russ Feingold|Feingold]] Act. In the case, Starr argued that the law was an unconstitutional abridgment of free speech. On April 6, 2004, he was appointed dean of the [[Pepperdine University School of Law]]. He originally accepted a position at Pepperdine as the first dean of the newly created School of Public Policy in 1996; however, he withdrew from the appointment in 1998, several months after the Lewinsky controversy erupted. Critics charged that there was a conflict of interest due to substantial donations to Pepperdine from billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife, a Clinton critic who funded many media outlets attacking the president. (Scaife's money, however, supported the Foster-was-murdered theory, according to CNN, and Scaife defunded ''The American Spectator'' after it endorsed Starr's conclusion of suicide and mocked a Scaife-aided book.<ref name="jackson" />) In 2004, some five years after President Clinton's impeachment, Starr was again offered a Pepperdine position at the School of Law and this time accepted it. === Death penalty cases === In 2005, Starr worked to overturn the death sentence of [[Robin Lovitt]], who was on [[Virginia]]'s [[death row]] for murdering a man during a robbery in 1998. Starr provided his services to Lovitt [[pro bono]]. On October 3, 2005, the Supreme Court denied [[certiorari]]. (Lovitt was granted clemency and had his sentence commuted to life in prison without parole, on November 29, 2005, by Governor [[Mark Warner]] of Virginia.) On January 26, 2006, the defense team of convicted murderer [[Michael Morales]] (which included Starr) sent letters to [[Governor of California|California governor]] [[Arnold Schwarzenegger]] requesting clemency for Morales.<ref name="elias">{{cite news |url=http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2006/01/27/state/n172048S85.DTL |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080328035349/http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=%2Fn%2Fa%2F2006%2F01%2F27%2Fstate%2Fn172048S85.DTL |url-status=dead |archive-date=March 28, 2008 |title=Ken Starr asks governor to spare condemned killer |last=Elias |first=Paul |date=January 27, 2006 |work=[[San Francisco Chronicle]] |publisher=Hearst Communications Inc. |access-date=June 25, 2009 }}</ref> Letters purporting to be from the jurors who determined Morales's death sentence were included in the package sent to Schwarzenegger.
