The Phil Spector Trial: Spector Dances (Literally) and the Aftermath

9/28/07, 3:57 pm EST

WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?
After the first match of Spector vs. California ended in a mistrial, Team Spector made some roster moves before the rematch begins. Out is defense lawyer Roger Rosen and rumored to be out is Bradley Brunon, as Spector felt a mistrial by the final tally of 10-2 was way too close to a guilty verdict. Taking over at lead counsel will be San Francisco legal giant Dennis Riordan, who cameoed at the first trial to help Spector’s squad during the tedious jury instructions process. Christopher Plourd and Spector consigliere Linda Kenney-Baden will still defend Spector, for now. Even though the lawyer firing shows Spector was disappointed that he was only sparred from jail by two acquitting jurors, that didn’t prevent Spector and his trouble-making wife Rachelle from doing a victory dance (and hump — see above) upon returning to their faux-mansion in Alhambra, as Phil celebrated being (for now, at least) a free man.

THE JURORS SPEAK:
A day after Juror nine expressed his regret that the jury couldn’t find Spector unanimously guilty, Juror ten, who was also the jury foreman, was ambushed into an interview with Court TV to explain to the viewers at home why he voted that Spector be acquitted. Except the foreman didn’t know he was being broadcast to explain himself — in fact he didn’t even know he was outted as someone who voted for Spector to go free, so what followed was an awkward interview filled with long gaps, as the foreman was only prepped to talk about “celebrity justice in L.A.” When he wasn’t in shock, the foreman explained the major point that hung the jury was chauffeur Adriano de Souza’s semi-butchering of the English language. It couldn’t be proven that de Souza actually understood the dialect when he heard Spector say “I think I killed somebody,” and thus the prosecution’s most important witness ultimately failed. One interesting note is that according to the foreman, the jury didn’t even consider the testimony of the defense’s big three forensic witnesses, as it was evident that they were hired guns for the defense and extremely biased. Considering that those three witnesses likely cost Spector somewhere in the ballpark of a half million dollars, he might want to find a better use for that money when the trial restarts.

Then of course this is just 1 of MANY polls that have the same results,always having the higher numbers in “guilty”.
Random polls aside,in a court of law it was 10 GUILTY, 2 not guilty.

Even when he gets a mistrial a second time it still does NOT mean he isn’t guilty.
In the eyes of the world he is GUILTY.

In Phil Spector it just goes to show money does not equate “class”.
I also have read the recent book about Spector and was rather unerved at the way he referred to that poor girl’s death.
Here’s an exact quote from Spector after being picked up for questioning.
Spector: “I don’t know what the fucking ladt… what her problem is,but she wasn’t a security at the House Of Blues and she’s a piece of shit.And I don’t know what her problem was ,but she certainly had no right to come to my fucking castle,and blow her head open and {indecipherable}a murder. What the fuck is wrong with you people?”

Page 405 of Tearing Down The Wall Of Sound by Mick Brown

Such a “compassionate” soul in the throes of a possible, ahem, “suicide” {yeah right}wouldn’t you say.
Lying and saying he had NO IDEA why she was there at his castle?
Lying and saying SHE lied to HIM about being security at the House of Blues.For what possible reason would she say that,she was hostess in the VIP section.

Spector went over the line and deserves to be punished he is NO better than you or I when it comes to committing murder.
Next time I hope they get the son of a bitch!

Why Spector’s new wife { a 26 year old chick} doing with quasimodo Specter? YUCK!

He deserves to be beaten up numerous times in prision or elsewhere.

You and me both! Like I read elsewhere on the internet “she’s the new Anna Nicole-Smith”

Cheer up, guys!

“It’s like these people have stood here for five days debating the literary worth of this thing.”

No,re-reading the posts YOU have been debating etc,you and Butt -Kowski.
I guess pretty soon you’ll switch to that name and make asinine violent threats about beating them up.Even though it’s someone perhaps on another continent.
Perhaps someone if you did in fact encounter would think twice about making such threats.Always easy for pussies like you,Spector.

“At this point who is right and wrong is getting to be less and less of the important issue. ”

Oh! I forgot this.
This section/board is for the Phil Spector case.
So if one chooses to read,comment on it this is the place.If they choose to post every freakin’ day until he goes to his next hearing it’s their choice.Again if you don’t like what someone is posting simply skip it.That’s what I do with you most of the time…

“Billy” (why I am SURE is not your real name anyway) why didn’t bother to address the quote on Celine? Because it’s complete out of your depth, right?

Dana I really am Billy…
Sorry to sqaush any theories you had.
I didn’t reply to your Celine comment simply I’m not sure what your on about. Do tell..

A Music Junkie | 10/3/2007, 8:49 pm EST

Strictly on a musical level I was never all that convinced of Spector’s genius.
His “wall of sound” seemed very cluttered,overproduced,mud like.
By today’s standards it’s very dated,not all that relevent to most young people.
What made the music stand the test of time wasn’t Spector,quite the opposite.
It was the musicians,singers involved.
He mainly had co-writing credits on most of the songs,and from recent reading about Spector I’m left wondering how much he actually wrote.
I always enjoyed George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass but hated the production on many of the songs.
I also just read I’m not alone.George Harrison wasn’t that fond of it himself and right before he passed away remixed it without any Spector involvement thank goodness.
I just got around to getting the remixed cd and it sounds fantastic!
No Spector equals better sounding music on this.
Let’s face it the best Beatle albums were produced by George Martin.The shittiest Beatle album Let It Be was by Spector.
I need to checkout McCartney’s version of the album minus Spector’s overproduction next.

“inntellect”

To edit myself I meant “intellect”

“It’s writer has graced us with such pearls as:
“Wee-Blo-Zaffles people!”
and
“{dipsy-doodle, dipsy doodle}”

All supersonic said was that it sucked, that’s all.

Can you losers try and get on with your lives now? Give me a break!

As oppossed to Supersonic’s genius jokes,rebuttles:

“now you must allow me to go play with my barbie dolls.

wahhhhhh wahhhhh i want my candy ”

Just sooo witty,funny.NOT!

As you’re here all the time and everyone {according to you here are losers}what does that make you.
Why would such incredible inntellect such as yourself be bothered with this…

Phil Spector | 10/3/2007, 8:03 pm EST

Gadzook-A Dook-Doo people!
I haven’t been around much.
Chelle keeps giving me these drinks she makes in the blender.
{hiss,snurp,snurp}

She says they’ll make everything okay.
I just feel extremely drowsy after digesting them…
I think I saw a young guy leaving our bedroom…
Well can’t stay long between the 8 meds I take for my depression,anxiety,seizures and all I’m falling asleep.

Considering Phil’s mental state,past and present.
And his ramblings when he got arreted after he killed Lana Clarkson it ain’t all that far removed from what he says!

Supersonic- Butt Kowski-Dana are all the same person.
I’m not sure if LIZZY/Joyce are though. I hope so because it’s rather scarey that 2 tards are running around here with that brain.

Is it me? I think the “Phil Spector” is a big pile of garbage.
It’s not worth discussing at all. These people are acting like they are learned professors discussing Celine.
It’s like these people have stood here for five days debating the literary worth of this thing. It’s not Hemingway, not Kerouac and it sure isn’t . . .

It’s writer has graced us with such pearls as:

I think I’ll do what I feel like doing. If I want to read something, I will. If I want to comment on something, in any fashion that I wish, I will.

I am “entitled,” yes? Likewise, you don’t have to read what I write or you can. You’re also “entitled” S

So what’s the what???

I dunno I kinda find it rather amusing myself.
The late night talk show hosts are goofing on Spector just as much.
Many people DO find making fun of Spector being he’s such a little twit.

Besides this is Rolling Stone,a mag. known for letting EVERYONE speak their mind.
The poster is making fun of Spector’s “mental state” which is a rather easy target.
The poster is entitled.
You don’t like it don’t read it…

She likes The Bachelor where as I was really looking foward to Cartoon Network’s 5 hour Dexter’s Labortory marathon.

Whel cut to the chase after a little friendly pistol persuasion
