Mark Tuohey, past President of the D.C. Bar who served as deputy counsel to [[Ken Starr]], has been identified as the person who thwarted both the Whitewater and Foster death investigations internally. When evidence surfaced of collusion between White House Chief of Staff Abner Mikva and the Starr investigation to contain negative publicity and harass witnesses in the [[Forbes]] magazine ''Fostergate'' episode, Tuohey resigned to join a law firm representing the [[Rose Law Firm]] whose chief litigators once included Vince Foster, Hillary Clinton, and Webster Hubbell. According to the ''[[Washington Post]]'', Tuohey was leaving to join the law firm of Vinson & Elkins. Kenneth Starr's ethics officer, Sam Dash, ruled there was no conflict of interest. | Mark Tuohey, past President of the D.C.
