The murder trial of music producer Phil Spector has ended in a mistrial afer the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict after leaning towards convicting SpectorBoston (EON) - The murder trial of music producer Phil Spector has ended in a mistrial after the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict after leaning towards convicting Spector.

The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office has already stated that plans are in the works to retry the case. This means though that Spector will be charge with nothing and will remain not guilty until another trial begins all over again.

The 67-year-old Spector is charged with 2nd degree murder in the killing of actress Lana Clarkson back in 2003. The prosecution stated that he shot her in his home. The defense though states that Clarkson killed herself with the gun of Spector.

Judge Larry Paul Fidler of the Superior Court stated that the jury foreman reported a 10-2 deadlock which resulted in the proceedings coming to a close. The deadlock earlier on was 7-5 about a week ago with no word which way the jury was swaying. It is now known that they were leading towards convicting Spector as the 10-2 was in favor of a guilty charge.

3 of the jurors spoke to reporters after and stated that the two who held out believed that it is possible that Lana Clarkson may have committed suicide and killer herself rather than Spector committing the murder.

Spector left the court free on bail.
