Eccentric music producer Phil Spector has been given a sentence of 19 years to life in prison for the murder of a Hollywood actress in 2003.
Spector, 69, who revolutionised pop music in the 1960s with his layered ‘Wall of Sound’ production technique, was convicted in April of second-degree murder by a Los Angeles jury after a second trial.
Lana Clarkson, 40, died of a shot to the mouth, fired from Spector's gun in the foyer of his home outside Los Angeles on 3 February 2003.
