Phil Spector Found Guilty

[tucsonsunapt]

There's really not much more to the story than this. Legendary producer Phil Spector, who worked with everyone from the Righteous Brothers to Leonard Cohen to the Ramones, has been found guilty of second degree murder in the 2003 shooting death of actress Lana Clarkson. His first trial, in 2007, ended in a hung jury.

this guy's the same cunt that fucked twelve year old girls when he could get them. it doesn't really matter. France isn't going to extradite him.

edit: nvm, wrong dude. still a shithead.

I had him as an avatar on another website once.

So what's his sentence? Life in prison or death penalty?

 

[bragor]

Were you thinking of Gary Glitter?

 

[Sydnie]

nah, Roman Polanski.

 

[ChefC]

Ah. I should've guessed that when you said France.

I'm mad I don't have a witty comment incorporating 'wall of sound'.

:laughing:

Anyways, his work with The Ramones should be enough to penalize him. :bringit:

I don't think he's been sentenced yet. I doubt it would be the death penalty since it's second degree murder. In fact, I'm not even sure if California has the death penalty.

Hey man, Rock N Roll High School is a great song, though I know the stress he put Johnny through recording it.

Gary Glitter becomes even creepier when you consider some of his song titles including:

Do You Wanna Touch Me? (Oh Yeah!)
Doing Alright With the Boys
Oh Yes! You're Beautiful
You Belong To Me

ewwwww

Pitchfork said Spector would be sentenced to at least 18 years in prison, and he's 69. So he'll probably die in jail.

 

[hitsugaya]

Yeah, that one was okay, but there's no excuse for that bubblegum pop crap he had them do.

 

[da king]

Yeh because the Ramones were never a pop band to begin with.
