Phil Spector(1939-2021)

On February 3, 2003, he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder after Lana Clarkson was shot to death in his home in Alhambra, CA. In April 2007, he went on trial in Los Angeles. On April 13, 2009, he was convicted of second-degree murder. On May 29 he was sentenced to 19 years to life in prison (he would have not be eligible for parole until 2028, when he would have been 88 years old. If he didn't get parole then, by California law his sentence would have become a life term). He is serving his sentence at the California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison in Corcoran. He was also ordered to pay $16,800 in funeral expenses and more than $9,700 to a state victim's assistance fund.

[asked if he enjoyed the work of Andrew Lloyd Webber] Why, yes. In fact, I respect his work so much that one day I'd like to set it to music.
