Title: Phil Spector guilty of murder
Post by: Weatherman on April 13, 2009, 04:58:54 PM
QuoteRock music producer Phil Spector was convicted Monday of second-degree murder in the shooting death of a film actress at his mansion six years ago.

A Superior Court jury returned the verdict after about 30 hours of deliberations. The jury had the option of choosing involuntary manslaughter, but did not do so.

Guy's accused of putting his gun in the mouth of a bar hostess he just picked up, and blowing her away.

In Seedy's world, that's not a crime - that's foreplay.  :D

Clearly Money would have pressed for jury nullification if he'd served on that case.  :cool:
