I am currently reading Backwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercinary Army by Jeremy Skahill. A big part of the book covers the death of four Blackwater contractors in Falujah.
The four that received world wide attention as their bodies were desecrated by a mob. The evidence is overwhelming that Blackwater cut corners in order to save money and that this led to the death of the contractors. E.g., not providing them with armored vehicles as was SOP for the military or other contractors but instead sending them through one of the most dangerous parts of Iraq in SUV's.
Blackwater stone walled the families as they tried to uncover the truth so the families sued blackwater to reveal it and to get some justice for their sons who were killed. And who did Blackwater hire to defend them against these grieving families? Ken Starr. So he may say that he wouldn't do it again but his actions show that he has no conscience or ethics and will do anything to help the powerful.
