Phil Spector found guilty of murder

US music producer Phil Spector has been convicted of murdering actress Lana Clarkson at his home in 2003.

The 68-year-old, famous for the "Wall of Sound" recording technique, faces between 15 years and life in prison.



He had pleaded not guilty to the second degree murder of 40-year-old Ms Clarkson, who was shot in the mouth at Spector's home in Los Angeles.



The trial, at the city's Superior Court, lasted five months and saw 77 witnesses take the stand.

Second degree murder falls between first degree murder, which requires proof of pre-meditation, and manslaughter.

I don't think he'll be allowed his wigs in jail.
