Better than an acquittal.

Upon further speculation, this looks to be another instance of a case taking so long to try that the jury looses touch with common sense. With all those people testifying that Spector had a habit of pulling guns on women, how the hell could you think this was anything other than his fault? And who kills themselves in the home of a stranger?

This is only speculation though.

I believe he did it. I also believe he is whacked out of his mind, especially with that hair style, but I definitely don't believe they should have wasted this much time and press on the case.
I seriously doubt this guy would need to serve jail time for this even if he was found guilty, he probably needs to be in a mental hospital or at least frequently supervised by some sort of authority figure.

I think he used that card back when he forcibly locked Ronnie Spector in his mansion for a couple years.

He's a legitimate crazy who notoriously brandishes firearms to nearly anyone around him, FINALLY kills someone and oh fuck, we just can't decide whether the guy is guilty or not. That's fantastic.

The jury have it repeatedly beaten into them that they are not to take into account anything other than the evidence presented during the trial.

Quote:
Prosecutors argued Spector has a history of threatening women with guns and said there was little evidence Clarkson wanted to kill herself.

One of the witnesses was Spector's chauffeur, who testified to hearing a gunshot, followed by Spector coming outside with a gun in his hand and stating: "I think I killed somebody."

You ever see that Ramones documentary where they decribe being locked in Spector's house for days on end and being forced to watch violent films?

I watched our version of "american idol" the other day and instantly lol'd because of this guy's hairdo...

I mean, I thought only insane music producers could favour this kind of look...
