Phil Spector's Lawyers Seek New Trial
Phil Spector is making another bid for freedom. The "Los Angeles Times" says lawyers for the imprisoned record producer have filed arguments for a new trial. Spector was found guilty of second-degree murder in the 2003 fatal shooting of actress Lana Clarkson. The 70-year-old music legend is serving a sentence of 19 years to life in prison. Spector's lawyers say the judge in his criminal trial should not have allowed testimony by five women who claimed they had felt menaced by Spector while he was in the possession of firearms. The California state attorney general's office will file a response to those claims next month but an appellate court decision could be as much as a year in coming.
