Spector case closed?

The Phil Spector murder trial closed Monday, after three months and 35 witnesses.

The 67-year-old music legend is accused of shooting Lana Clarkson, a B-movie actress, in his Los Angeles mansion on February 3, 2003. The two had met for the first time at a Hollywood nightclub where Clarkson worked as a hostess, just hours before her death.

Spector is best known for creating the "Wall of Sound" recording technique and is regarded as one of the most influential figures in rock music history. He has worked with The Beatles, Tina Turner, The Righteous brothers and many more.

Spector denied the allegations, claiming Clarkson shot herself. Detective Richard Tomlin of the Los Angels County Sheriff's Department was the prosecution's last witness. He testified that Spector's defense team never handed over the small white object that was allegedly taken from the scene of the crime.

According to prosecutors, Spector has a history of violence against women, which peaked with Clarkson's murder as she attempted to escape his mansion four years ago.

Tomlin confirmed that despite requests from the prosecutors, who say the object might have been a fragment of Clarkson's finger nail, that the item to be given to them, the requests were never granted.

If the fragment had in fact been a piece of Clarkson's fingernail it would have undermined the defense's claim that 40-year-old shot herself.

If convicted of second-degree murder, Spector faces 15 years to life in prison.
