Subject: Phil Spector Murder Trials
To: howardv@varinsky.com
Hello Howard,
I am writing a book on Phil Spector, his trials, and other related issues. I have known Phil Spector for over 25 years and worked for him, on and off, from 1988 until approximately 2002. I've been studying the social media aspect of this case - including blogs. It appears to me that certain blogs are affiliated with (if not the mouthpiece for) the Los Angeles District Attorney and the Clarkson family. That would include Sprocket's trial & Tribulations; The Darwin Exception; Michelle Blaine's various blogs; Stephen Gianelli's Blogonaut Law Blog; and others. Individuals affiliated with these Blogs also appear to descend on message boards and comment relentlessly on articles all over the internet. It seems as though this is a highly organize campaign. It also appears, from what I have studied, that Juror #9 from the 1st Spector trial may have been affiliated with Alan Jackson or Sprocket and her blog prior to the verdict. It was brought to my attention, by an investigator, that Sprocket is the mouthpiece for Donna Clarkson (the decedent's mother).
I was wondering if you would care to comment on this activity from your perspective as an expert and adviser to the Los Angeles District Attorney.
Thank you.
