Cohen shows up in the prosecutor's motion in limine, and - according to Mick Brown/UK Telegraph (who had the grand jury transcripts - testified against Phil Spector before the grand jury - told the LAPD Detectives I met that Phil Spector never held a gun on him and these were good rock 'n roll comments. That is precisely what he told me for approximately 20 years. His stories have been embellished and fabricated over the years. Cohen, of course, resented Phil Spector; was jealous of his fame; didn't like the way Phillip handled his vocals on the album they worked on together; and probably enjoyed his self-involved revenge fantasies that led to the indictment of an innocent man. It also probably gave Cohen the opportunity to align himself with the Lost Angeles District Attorney who, in turn, could conceivably have contacted the IRS (as they did ICE) re. Cohen's criminal tax fraud. This seems entirely plausible and would have resolved many "pesky details" for a number of parties. Cohen has no problems, whatsoever, blaming his illegal activity on others - although his theft from a number of individuals (Kelley Lynch, Phil Spector, Steven Machat, Marty Machat ...) will prove to be impossible to defend.
C. The 1977 Brandishing on Leonard Cohen
1977, Spector produced musician Leonard Cohen's record album, "Death of a Ladies man." during production of the record, Cohen and Spector, who were friends, were taking a break in the lobby of the music studio. Spector walked up to Cohen, placed on arm around Cohen's shoulders, and pointed a semi-automatic pistor at Cohen's chest with his other hand. Spector told Cohen, "I love you Leonard." Cohen looked at Spector and said, "I hope so, Phil." Spector then walked away from Cohen.

The Usual Suspects - Cyber Terrorists - Descend On The Phil Spector Set Up
Gianelli, who is obsessed with Phil Spector and who has targeted me and others relentlessly (as well as having lied to the FBI and others - quite blatantly), appears to set up reasonable doubt theories tied to serious legal problems for the prosecution. These issues can then be publicly refuted. ICE apparently decided to reward the lying driver with a green card which obviously denied Phil Spector a fair trial.

Can you explain why Spector tampered with evidence by washing the dead woman's face, his hands, and wiping down the gun?

Now read this friends. As you know, it's almost like reading Lana herself.
Lana Clarkson and Suicide.....a sarcastic look at the Desperate Defense of Phil Spector and a manipulated Jury...from Lana Clarkson's Diary? This is a wonderful read from Ted Wallace. (Thanks Ted)
1. "Mom bought me all these neat new shoes, they'll be perfect for my new job! No, I almost forgot, I'm thinking of committing suicide."
2. "Lots of Hollywood big shots come to the House Of Blues! I'm sure to make a few good contacts! Naw, I think I'll commit suicide.
3. "My talent video came out pretty good. Many think I have a gift for comedy! Too bad I'm committing suicide."
4. "I must fix the sound on my video, It's not very good. Nope. Can't do it, I'm committing suicide."
5. "Standing naked in front of this mirror, I realize I could take seven years off my age. I look great. Sad, that I'm thinking of killing myself."
6. "Nice looking mature gentleman just got out of that limousine and he's giving me a long look. Maybe, I'll...no, suicide comes first."
7. "I should concentrate on doing more character roles. Some make a good living at it. If only I wasn't thinking about suicide."
8. "What a perfect California day! The sea glistens in joy like liquid diamonds. Not a good time to do yourself in."
9. "I just heard of a couple of good TV roles that would be perfect for me but I won't be able to try out. Suicide, you know."
10. "That creepy little Phil Spector just came in. He must have lots of connections. He wants me to see the mansion. Gosh, I hope he has a gun." - Kelley Lynch 1 year agoAn Open Letter From Phil Spector
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

Bill Pavelic�s allegations that LAPD�s Robbery Homicide Unit Set Up Him, Dr. Henry Lee and Dr. Michael Baden
http://www.guiltyofincompetenc...
- J.M. 7 months agoI have learned about some very unethical conduct on the part of the L.A. prosecutor's office that occurred before, during and after the Phil Spector murder retrial. At this time, these details are all I can relay.
The jury foreperson (and L.A. Superior court employee), Irma Lopez, is a clerk in the Resource center office at the criminal courts building, Stanley Mosk Room 426. 213-974-5018. She specifically requested to be placed on that jury and used her position and contacts throughout the courthouse and the prosecutor's office to be granted that favor. This of course pleased prosecutors.
The main motivation was to serve on a celebrity trial for fame and exposure. An underlying reason was that she and her co-workers at Domestic Violence Prevention office, as well as her friends in the prosecutor's office, had already made up their minds as to Mr. Spector's guilt and promised to make him pay. Lopez has since bragged to several persons that she had herself assigned to be the foreperson in order to direct the jury proceedings, sway the jurors towards guilt, and had pre-planned to find Spector guilty. Lopez also admitted that prosecutors told her they needed to convict Phil Spector by 'any means necessary' because they could not afford to lose another high profile case.
Irma Lopez was the only juror who attended the sentencing and gave numerous quotes and interviews to the media.
Not exactly a fair-minded juror.
I hope you'll find this information helpful into how the prosecutors hand out favors to reward courthouse employees.
I am hoping to obtain further details in the days to come, and hope to persuade this witness to come forward with Irma Lopez's admissions.
Please keep in mind that Ms. Lopez is the kind of person who threatens the personal lives of anyone who crosses her, or attempts to bury them with false accusations and restraining orders from her office, not to mention that her husband is an E.L.A. gang member.
Please DO NOT release my name or email in any form. I fear retaliation.
I will be in touch with you as soon as I have more information.
Thank you.
