Paulette,

Please review Mick Brown's comments.  I think Mick - who works for the Telegraph (and NOT Rolling Stone) - is quite clear here.

Love,
Kelley

Dear Nikhil Ramnaney,

Thank you for your letter. I'm afraid there has been a misunderstanding here. At the time I was writing my book about Phil Spector I was sent copies of material that, as I understood it, had been submitted to the Grand Jury in the Phil Spector case. Included in this material were (short) statements from Leonard Cohen.  I might well have mentioned to Ms Lynch that these statements were included in materials presented to the Grand Jury. However, I do not recall having stated that Mr Cohen himself had testified to the Grand Jury. Indeed, I
would have had no way or knowing whether he had or not.

My feeling is that these statements had not been given by Mr Cohen personally at the time, but were actually taken from one or more interviews that he had given in the past concerning his recording sessions with Mr.  Spector.

I hope this answers your question. If it's helpful, I shall try and find the original material that was sent to me. If I can be of any more help to you please don't hesitate to contact me.

Best wishes,

Mick Brown

Hi Kelley,

Thank you for that, and I'm glad you're finding my interviews helpful.

I've told you everything I know about the Leonard Cohen gun story and how it appeared in Grand Jury testimony. I have no knowledge, thoughts or theories beyond that.

Hope all's well with you.
Best,
Mick

[Phil Spector] Recording Leonard Cohen, he approached the singer clutching a bottle of Jewish ritual wine in one hand and a pistol in the other, which he shoved into Cohen's neck, whispering 'Leonard, I love you.'  Cohen with admirable aplomb, simply moved the barrel away, saying 'I hope you do, Phil'.

Kelley,

I have looked for the documents I was sent in connection with the Grand
Jury and been unable to find them. They were sent to me by my friend the
journalist and author Carlton Smith, who unfortunately has since passed
away. However, I'm sure you would be able to access them from the same
source as Carlton did. My understanding is they were/are on the public
record.

I do not recall ever saying to you that Cohen himself had testified. If I
did, it was my mistake. My recollection is that the statement from Leonard
Cohen was the same  statement that had already appeared in media
interviews, pertaining to the incident in the studio during the recording
of 'Death Of A Ladies Man'. My recollection is that it was on a single
sheet of paper. I have no idea whether Leonard Cohen personally made this
statement to the DA, or whether - and I suspect this is the case - that
quote had simply been taken from previously published interviews
There was no mention of any statement attributed to Cohen in either of the
two subsequent trials.

Mick

Leonard Cohen’s statements were indeed used in prosecution motions in Phil Spector’s trials.  The following are excerpts from the prosecution’s Motion to Admit Evidence of Other Crimes in Case No. BA255233, filed on August 14, 2008 and from the prosecution’s Motion in Limine to admit evidence of other crimes filed on February 17, 2005.  

“Defendant Phillip Spector has built a history, spanning some 40 odd years,of using gun-related violence when confronted with a situation when he feels a loss of control, or a threat to his control.  On February 17, 2005, the People filed a motion in limine to admit evidence of other acts committed by Spector. Under that separate cover, the facts of the following incidents were set forth in detail and in their entirety. Thus, in an effort towards brevity, only a short recitation of such incidents will be discussed below.  Spector has a long history of resorting to gun-related violence to exert his will when he does not get his way. Int begins in 1972 and continues to the present.”

“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 pistol 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.”

Hi Mick,

It's interesting that Gianelli is writing Paulette about you.  You have advised me that you reviewed the Grand Jury transcripts and Cohen's statements were used.  I included your emails confirming this in my Writ of Habeas Corpus that was approved and filed on May 3, 2013.  Gianelli's obsession with me is astounding.
All the best,
Kelley

Gianelli,

Cease and desist.  Paulette is my friend and we're in regular contact.  You're lying to her face and you appear obsessed with Mick Brown.

Paulette,
Why is Gianelli writing you anything about what we do or do not know.  Leonard Cohen stole from Marty and Steven Machat and Steven Machat has addressed this in his book.  Cohen just testified about Phil Spector - in my alleged trial - and now has three versions of his highly embellished Spector gun stories before LA Superior Court.  Mick Brown/UK Telegraph has reviewed the Grand Jury transcripts and advised me that Cohen's statements were used.  I haven't claimed this.  Mick Brown has confirmed this numerous times in emails to me.  Cohen's statements were also used in prosecution motions that are readily available online - including at LA Superior Court
In any event, Paulette, we have spoken and email one another and you are a dear friend of mine - and Phillip's.  Why would I turn on you?  You're not criminally harassing me and members of my family, etc. 

Thanks for forwarding me this evidence against Gianelli.  I agree - he knows what he says and is a bald-faced liar with MOTIVE.
Love,
Kelley

Dear Ms. Brandt:
Kelley Lynch has posted your name and email address on her blog, and is pretending that the two of you are of a like mind respecting her “theory” that entertainer Leonard Cohen is on a “crusade” to destroy Phil Spector, and also “stole” from Marty Marchant. (She claims Mick Brown of Rolling Stone told her that Leonard Cohen testified before the Phi Spector grand jury and from this she infers that Cohen’s “perjury” is responsible for Spector’s murder conviction, even though Cohen neither testified before the grand jury nor at either one of Phil Spector’s murder trials.)
Be forewarned, Kelley Lynch is very disturbed and mistakes silence in the face of emails as a “relationship” and silence in the face of several hundred or more emails as a “dear friendship”.
And should she turn on you, you can expect 10,000 emails accusing you of every crime known to mankind, CC to the IRS, the FBI, Governors, prosecutors and the media.
See here:
Kelley Lynch also forwarded her email to you to various email recipients, including the FBI, IRS, and Franchise Tax Board and members of the media,  implying that the two you are in “conversation”; here is her distribution  list:

Hello Mr. Riordan,

Paulette sent me a lovely link featuring Blaine on Aphrodite Jones. The system works beautifully for the criminal. Paulette worked for Phil for years and NO ONE contacted her - not the prosecutors, not the news media, etc. No one cares about the truth. They like the garbage de riguer gun stories. They sell.

Love,
Kelley
