Lol, well there is a hearing in 15 minutes. Sounds to me like we got a hung jury.

There was a t-shirt I saw in a store near Hollywood and Vine that looked like this, except on a shirt (can't find it on the internets...) Free Phil Spector
On Second Thought....

Judge denied motion for a mistrial. Going to have a hearing with the counsel tomorrow. Looking at new instructions for the jury and it looks like the Judge is going to tell them they can consider manslaughter. Apparently a few of the jurors said that new instructions could help.

Three of the jurors said additional instruction on "doubt" versus "reasonable doubt" might help. I think it's probably too late for them to change the charge. That would likely end in mistrial.

no but they can find him guilty of a lesser charge...i was on a jury once and we were hung because we could only agree on the fact that he was guilty, not of the first degree assault with a deadly weapon

Wasn't his defense "I didn't do it she committed suicide?" What, did he throw in an OJ with an "If I Did It, This is How It Happened?" What is there to be confused about, either they believe she committed suicide or they believe he killed her. I could see getting hungup with a defense like "I was too drugged up to know what I was doing", but really. As far as I know he didn't offer that as a defense.

I think Goddess, some of the jurors just cant get around his statement to the driver "I think I killed someone", kind of hard to take that back and then say she committed suicide. I mean come on, tell me one woman you know who went out, bought ten pairs of shoes and THEN committed suicide later that day. It just doesnt happen.

Who in the meets Phil Spector for the first time then goes to his house to kill themselves? OK, I take that back if I found myself at Phil Spector's house in the middle of the night I might kill myself. But still.

It sure was fun to watch them all lose their minds researching. And pretty much in the past couple of days solve the puzzle.

It makes sense to me. I believe Ent. There is a picture of Alice where you can see the scar. I hope we get more information as time goes along. Arthur would have been 22 at the time. BUT, he was a very good impersonator, too.

He had that rubbery, round, jowly type of George Sanders face, too, one that might be sufficiently pliable to pull off an older lady even though he was young.
