Hitman Phil Spector appears to be benefiting from the fact that most of America watches too much television (and by default then the folks who sit on a jury) and can find it plausible that someone would meet a person for the first time, have drink with them, then go home with them, and then decide, "hey, I've always wantรฉd to 86 myself, and the foyer of Phil Spector's mansion seems as good a place as any."
