Who Says Money and Fame Won’t Get You What You Want?

Question by Littlemswright: Who says money and fame won’t get you what you want?
LOS ANGELES – Music legend Phil Spector has been assigned to a “sensitive needs facility” in California’s largest state prison to serve his sentence for murdering an actress.

Spector was taken Monday to the California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison at Corcoran, where 6,919 other inmates are housed, corrections spokeswoman Terry Thornton said.

She said Spector was assigned to the sensitive needs facility rather than general population. He doesn’t have a cellmate.

As a medium security inmate, Spector can make some requests for items he wants in his cell, and his wife acknowledges her husband is already creating a list.

“He wants a TV and an iPod or something like that for listening to music,” Rachelle Spector said Tuesday. “And he would like to be able to receive e-mail.”

Prison Lt. Stephen Smith said Spector’s notoriety probably got him into the sensitive needs facility. He said the typical inmate there needs protection after dropping out of a gang.

Spector, 69, is serving 19 years to life for the fatal shooting of actress Lana Clarkson at his castle-like home in Alhambra in 2003. He was convicted of second-degree murder in April after the first trial ended with a mistrial

    Hey….it’s California…the next thing to Oz. Remember O.J. and Robert Blake? If ever there was a state to be well-to-do, famous, rich, and in the public eye, and still do a homicide, California’s the place.

  • Marcia B:

    I think people say it won’t “necessarily” get you what you what you want…in MANY cases it will.

    JollY: The locale makes little difference. Don’t kid yourself.

    He’s in prison, where he belongs. All celebs are segregated away from regular population. Even Paris Hilton did her big 24 days alone.
