    Here’s what it has to do with Lana Clarkson: I believe she committed suicide at Phil Spector’s house. The expert witnesses have proven this to me and I see no reason on earth why they would all lie. It’s a preposterous notion. I believe Mr. Spector was set up – after all, the District Attorneys like these high profile celebrity trials … and, they have a history of failure with them so nailing one, such as Mr. Spector, was important. It appears to me, and others, that Alhambra PD screwed up when they tasered Mr. Spector. They themselves have testified on the stand that they thought he was a voyeur and not a witness inviting him into their house. A possible huge civil suit against Alhambra PD must have come to their minds.

    Let me do this mathematically:
    1 – I reported Leonard Cohen’s tax fraud (criminal) to the IRS and refused to make a deal with him (for 50% of his community property, etc.)
    2 – the District Attorney’s investigator rolls by my house – after someone placed an anonymous tip about my friendship with Phillip.
    3 – I report the tax fraud to the IRS and the next thing I know – I am being dragged to King Drew, questioned about Phillip while my older son is being asked to go in and sign over/transfer my house to Leonard Cohen. I am released and a custody matter was filed – Leonard Cohen’s lawyer has a Declaration in that custody matter.
    4 – I let the DA’s idiots know that Cohen has defrauded me of millions and the U.S. government. I also explain that he perjured himself in Phillip’s secret grand jury and is blackmailing me.
    5 – Cohen is their witness.
    6 – Entire King Drew file ends up falsified.
    7 – DA’s office begins threatening me.
    Seems fairly straightforward.

    Nat, let me know if you’re unclear. I’ve let the Clarkson family, through their lawyer, know that I intend to name them in my lawsuit against the District Attorney. law enforcement, Leonard Cohen, Steve Lindsey, and others. Donna Clarkson pushed for the suicide to be handled as a homicide. Because I was dragged into that insanity – I feel she (and others) are the source … legally speaking.

    Thanks Lori. :) Lana was a great human being with an eye toward the future and the world is certainly a lesser place without her.

    Lori, I don’t care if you’re pissed off. I lost custody of my child and I believe this happened because Lana Clarkson wasn’t thinking correctly and shot herself in Phillip’s foyer..I did not know any of the people involved and seldom listened to the trial but you must understand that in this day and age that everything you say that is recorded in some way can and will bite you in the butt..just ask George and Cindy Anthony!

    An Open Letter From Phil Spector To A Good Friend.
    Sunday July 26th

    Steven,

    I had no voice the day I was sentenced in court on May 30th 2009 due to throat papalomas I had removed 3-days earlier on the 27th.of May. It left me with no voice. I was indeed very upset because when I was asked to address the court, I could not speak for I had no voice. What I wanted to say follows: Be it known that I, Phillip Spector had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the death of Lana Clarkson. And irrefutable science and five of the greatest, most famous forensic scientists all swore under oath that Ms. Clarkson died of a self inflicted gun shot wound, a suicide. They swore by irrefutable science. And while juries and judges lie and make mistakes, science and DNA do not. When their scientific findings and words were ignored is a mystery to me, and hopefully will not be ignored by the appellate court. And I shall return.

    But let it also be known that there IS a murderer in the court room and it is NOT Phil Spector, it is Alan Jackson. During the trial he murdered the truth, ,he murdered the constitution, he murdered the law, and he murdered my reputation, and he should not go unpunished for his dastardly deeds. He used his five little “groupies” women, one of whom recently overdosed and died from drugs, and could not be here to testify to slander and lie about me, and victimize me so that he could get his conviction without any scientific proof whatsoever. That’s because he had none. He lied and cheated and double crossed that before along with his cohort Truc Doe whenever they got to it, yes my friends, HE is the real murderer. But, what goes around comes around. And the appellate court will see through his chicanery and smoke and mirrors, and false law and overturn my conviction, and then I will be back stronger than ever, a free man as I should be. Until then, POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

    Steven, I would like this published verbatim from the beginning of this letter to the end. And tell Chris Paven to also put it on my website.

    Thanks, Phillip

    It sure is about money. That should really make people sick.

    Phil Spector’s Murder Trial Was An Absolute Sham
    Los Angeles, CA—I wrote extensively about legendary record producer, Phil Spector’s first murder trial that ended in a mistrial when jurors could not reach a unanimous verdict. . I was not able to do much with the retrial because of other commitments, but it was even worse that the first trial.

    Both trials were as unfair, and as outrageous as I’ve ever seen in my 40 years of experience inside the criminal justice system. During the trials I compared L.A. Superior Court Judge Larry Paul Fidler to Roland Freisler, the President of The People’s Court of Germany’s Third Reich. I don’t think that was an exaggeration because of nearly every ruling made by Fidler.

    It was obvious to me that Judge Fidler had an agenda to convict Spector at any cost after numerous embarrassing high profile acquittals of other celebrity defendants. Fidler was drunk with power as he satisfied the harpy-pundits of that failed TV network, Court TV. It just so happened that I met Judge Fidler when he was invited to San Francisco to attend an Investigative Reporter’s and Editor’s conference in San Francisco with that very pretty, former Court TV correspondent, Beth Karas.

    Spector’s trial was not about evidence but was an exercise of pure hatred. The trial manifested hatred for Spector’s wealth, flamboyant hair, manner of dress and lifestyle.

    Spector had a lifetime’s worth of gold-digging women satisfying his libido and then angered when Spector did not give them the wealth and fame they sought. The very worst of this group were allowed to testify against Spector about decades old affairs.

    Spector’s real crime was his sometimes horrible taste and judgment in the women he allowed in his bed. In that mix were thieves, extortionists and drug addicts. Some would return to haunt Spector for a slim chance at fame and of course the cash they could get from the tabloids for their tall tales.

    The dead woman, Lana Clarkson fit Spector’s bedmates well. Clarkson was a failed and now too old actress with habit for ingesting Vicodin nearly a dozen times a day. The poor woman was an alcoholic suffering from depression and was nearly destitute. It was clear that Clarkson was under the influence of both drugs and alcohol when she died.

    None the less Clarkson was a sympathetic figure that Hollywood used and spit out. Clarkson was beautiful and there was evidence she tried very hard to gain fame and fortune that sadly never materialized. Clarkson was really just another tragic story from The Boulevard of Broken Dreams.

    Clarkson did not go home with Phil Spector who she just met for anything more than an act of commerce. Spector had money and Clarkson needed some.

    A violent death occurred but the evidence of murder just was not there. On the contrary there was a lot of evidence suggesting suicide or a self-inflicted accidental shooting by a drunken woman.

    We don’t have a video, instant replay of this tragedy. We and the jury had to guess how Clarkson died. It’s a human trait to want to assign blame for a needless death. The blame went to Phil Spector.

    In Judge Fidler’s court Clarkson’s problems were sanitized while any and everyone who wanted was encouraged by the jurist to throw mud on Spector.

    Phil Spector was railroaded to a prison cell for more years than the 70 year-old has left on earth. Spector very well may never live long enough to win his appeal. This is wrong.

    With The People’s Court of Germany, the public did not see much of anything wrong with Judge Freisler’s show trials either. “Justice” was always administered there, swift and sure. What happened in this Los Angeles courtroom can happen to you or someone you love.

    Read now the appeal brief filed on behalf of Phil Spector:
