Music producer Phil Spector was charged Thursday
with murder in the shooting of B-movie actress Lana Clarkson.
Spector isnt having a very good week.
First one of the most successful albums he produced featuring his Wall
of Sound production technique was re-released without his treatment (The
Beatles Let It Be
Naked") and now he faces murder charges.
Spector is expected to be arraigned at
3:30 p.m. local time at the Alhambra Superior Court house, according
to a statement from the Los Angeles district attorney's office.
The 62-year-old record producer was arrested
on February 3rd after police found Clarkson's body in a pool of blood at
the entrance to his mansion. Police were called out to the mansion by Spectors
driver who reported hearing gun shots inside the house.
Spector was not charged at that time and
was released on $1 million bail while the district attorneys office decided
if they had enough evidence to charge the famed record producer. It appears
they do.
Spector of course says that he didnt commit
the murder; he told Esquire magazine that he believes Clarkson may have
shot herself.
