Prosecutors Hope For A Compromise Verdict On Spector Murder Trial.

Los Angeles, CA—Prosecutor’s know they have a paper thin case against music legend, Phil Spector in connection with the death of Lana Clarkson. The facts in the way of a conviction are that the woman was a drug addicted, alcoholic with the weight of the world on her despondent shoulders and the fact that the science of this case exonerates Spector.

The trial has been a non-stop hate campaign and character assassination of the producer by a lifetime's collection former jilted girlfriends. Then there’s the illegal alien limo driver who got a free Green Card for telling the cops what they wanted to hear. He claimed to have heard a “confession quote” from a distraught mumbling Phil Spector.

Prosecutors fought tooth and nail for a lesser charge because they know a lesser conviction is easier to obtain. That’s a disingenuous reason to say the least. Judge Larry Paul Fidler has done all he could do to help prosecutors convict Spector. Now the judge included an uncharged Involuntary Manslaughter count to allow the jury to compromise rather than acquit. A compromise by jury members is wrong. Either Spector is a murderer or he’s not.

Under our system of law it is better that ten guilty men go free than one innocent man be convicted, except in the court of Judge Larry Paul Fidler.

The jury will struggle with a guess as to what they think really happened and arrive at a verdict. A guess is wrong since there must be proof beyond a reasonable doubt. I stand convinced that the filing of charges in this case was a travesty.

If Spector is convicted of either charge he will die in prison. That fate should be based on more than a guess.

i dunno paul, this maybe a case where you and i disagree... I have followed it closely and this guy is a whacked out power monger who gets his nut by scaring women with guns. Something went wrong that night, she might have fought back and didn't buy into the gunplay BDSM thingy. I am thinking he did it. just my 2 cents
Cpdcoppurr,

I worry about anyone who agrees with me all the time.

So your making a guilty guess on this one. Knowing guessing is wrong would you vote to convict on your best guess without a way of knowing what really happened?

Lana Clarkson was like many folks who go to hollyweird to make it big.She had very limited success and wasnt making it.

There are people in this world that are gold-diggers.There are many folks who will do anything to make it in hollyweird and casting couches do exist.

Lana Clarksons death while tragic,was not a homicide.Using Spectors past against him is biased investigator technique,very common with amaturish detectives.

Paul,

I am not making a guess. I have watched the trial on TV. Read the transcripts etc... I looked at it from a cops point of view and as a juror......

We all know other then when you have a stone cold confession, there are things left up to chance. This was no coincidence what happened.

He had a flavor for gun play. This one went south.

Most all murder cases are good police work, coupled with evidence, facts, and witness testimony. From what "i" see, he did it.

Just the facts sir, nothing but the facts.... lol

be well friend.

i know some one in tarrant county texas accused of a felony. False, accusation, what a pile.

The witness misidentified twice.

Now, I know what the hell Paul is talking about now.

The trial wasn't televised so I don't know what trial you were watching Cpdcoppurr. Phil Spector is innocent and the science and evidence has proven it. At the last trial the judge said he thought about the manslaughter charge but decided not to give it because it wasn't warranted in this case. What all of sudden it's warranted? The prosecution didn't have a case from the very beginning.They knew it then and they know it now.

I will side with Cpdcoppurr on this one, Paul.

The whole "self-gunplay" thing just doesn't hold water. No matter how many times and how many different ways I have looked at it... I STILL think he is guilty! I do not feel the need to witness him holding the gun and pulling the trigger. Perhaps she WAS rummaging thru his personal property searching for drugs or cash... we will never know. He lost control, coupled with his own intoxication and neurological disorder, and whether intentional or accidental, shot her. Plain and simple.

One more note:

I didn't witness OJ butchering Nichole and Ron either, but I will always believe he is also 100%, without a doubt... GUILTY!!!
Nothing has changed. 55% of US gun homicides are suicides. A gun shot in the mouth is almost always a certain suicide (name 10 cases where it wasn't). The lack of blood or other material on Spector indicates he wasn't in the room when the gun was fired -- the traces came from him running into the room immediately afterwards.

This case is a disgrace for the courts - it was brought for political purposes and personal gains.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
