Phil Spector Guilty
Friday, April 17, 2009 at 11:07AM Rock 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 verdict that will send him to prison for at least 18 years barring a successful appeal.
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.
The panel also found Spector guilty of using a firearm in committing a crime. Source: MSNBC
