Phil Spector All Verklempt in the Snake Pit
Your heart has to go out to the pathetic Phil Spector, seen here in his glory days.
Spector was sentenced in June to 19 years for sticking a gun in the mouth of actress/model Lana Clarkson and pulling the trigger in the living room of his stately mansion.
He’s actually a pretty lucky guy since he’ll only be 88 when he’s released in 2028 whereas Bernie Madoff will be a ripe, old 221 when his term is up in the year 2249–and Bernie didn’t even kill anyone.
(For further detail on Spector’s crime and trial, see “Phil Spector, Justice Served, Justice Denied,” http://bit.ly/16XcJN.)
In recognition of the 69 year old Spector’s specialness, prison authorities placed him in the “sensitive-needs” section of the California State Prison at Corcoran where he is isolated from the general population and need not partake of his victuals sitting elbow to elbow with criminals.
Still, the “mad genius” of rock and roll is terrified residing in that “snake pit” of a place and is, therefore and understandably, an unhappy camper-inmate in his 3X7 foot cell. . . .

Phil Spector: Justice, American Style
Phil Spector, Justice Served, Justice Denied
What do you do with a girl named Maria? Compared to the question of what do you do with a prisoner named Phil Spector, the answer is challenging. In Spector’s case, you give him whatever he wants!
Spector was finally convicted of second degree murder of a defenseless woman, six years after the fact and almost two years after his first trial ended in a hung jury. All the while the accused killer was free on a one-million-dollar bail.
Sentenced to 19 years, the 69 year old Spector is serving his time in a private cell at the medium security California State Prison at Corcoran, in the “sensitive-needs” section.
However, it seems that in addition to being sensitive, he’s an unhappy camper/inmate. He wants some bennies, some amenities to make prison life more comfy and tolerable.
Word is he will get them: http://bit.ly/7s87R.
Anyway, it’s not as if he committed treason or a crime against society or anything like that. He merely snuffed out the life of a woman by putting one of his various pistols in her mouth and pulling the trigger, only once though.
Granted, too, his victim, model and actress Lana Clarkson, wasn’t the brightest crayola in the box . . .
