Kenneth Starr had a bit of an identity crisis Wednesday.

After talking about the nobility of the legal profession, the former special prosecutor in the Whitewater investigation was asked about his connection to movie star Wesley Snipes, who is currently on trial for tax fraud, conspiracy and willful failure to file tax returns.

"I heard something that you were offering opinions about whether or not we should have to pay taxes and whether or not Wesley Snipes is in the wrong," the student asked.

In the trial, Snipes' defense attorneys said his former financial adviser, one Kenneth I. Starr of New York, never told him that it's illegal not to pay taxes.

Trouble is, that's not the same Kenneth Starr who spoke at Campbell.

"Gosh, I must be talking in my sleep," Starr told the student. "I don't think I've commented on Mr. Snipes' case, at least to my memory."

If he did, Starr said, it would have been "imprudent."
