Henry C. Lee: A Master Class - The Phil Spector Case CrimeWaves
-
- True Crime
It was a killing that involved a Hollywood actress, one of the greatest musicians that America has ever produced, and a mystery that took almost 12 years two court trials and three legal appeals to resolve.
On February 2, 2003. Phil Spector, the man behind the Beatles album 'Let it Be’, John Lennon's 'Imagine', George Harrison's 'My Sweet Lord', and countless other top music hits, left his Los Angeles mansion. He came back at midnight with a gorgeous blonde actress, Lana Clarkson. They got drunk. He played the piano, they sang. But at two o'clock in the morning, there was a single gunshot that echoed over the neighborhood. And then Phil Spector stepped out of the door and said, "I think I just shot her".
Or did he?
Because when the man known as America's modern-day Sherlock Holmes began to investigate, it was not so clear.
On CrimeWaves podcast - a master class with Dr. Henry C. Lee.
Dr Lee was the first pioneer of the linkage between DNA analysis and detective work. He is an expert in crime scene analysis and a superb investigator. He trains police forces around the world but, in this episode, he talks about this high-profile Hollywood crime case, the tragedy surrounding it and the attack on his professional reputation.
