Prosecutors: 'spector Killed Clarkson'....

Prosecuting lawyers in the Phil Spector murder trial urged the jury to follow their hearts and find the music producer guilty.Speaking in Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday (05Sep07), prosecutor Alan Jackson insisted Spector was responsible for the fatal shooting of actress Lana Clarkson in his Alhambra, California mansion in 2003.Jackson suggested forensic expert Michael Baden, who was called by the defence team, of tailoring his testimony to assist his wife Linda Kenney-Baden - who is representing Spector.Jackson said, "You hire enough lawyers to hire enough experts. If you pay someone enough money you can get them to wear a tutu in court. You can get them to say just about anything in court".He claimed Clarkson's reputation had been destroyed by Spector's defence team, who claimed she was suicidal and killed herself.In his closing argument, Jackson told the jury, "You know in your heart of hearts he is responsible for her death. He killed her".Spector's team will present their closing argument on Thursday (06Sep07).
