Phil Spector Loses Murder Appeal

05/04/2011
. (Rock News Desk) Iconic producer Phil Spector's appeal against his murder conviction has been thrown out by a California court.

He was jailed two years ago over the shooting of actress Lana Clarkson at his home in 2003, and is serving a 19-year-term. His defence lawyers had argued his conviction was based on misconduct and the use of inadmissible evidence.

But the three-member appeal panel have refuted each point in an 81-page written judgment, meaning Spector will remain behind bars. more rock news
