Spector murder trial jury reaches verdict

The jury in Phil Spector’s murder retrial has signalled that it has reached a verdict.

The Los Angeles Superior Court jury buzzed the courtroom three times today.

The court clerk says the verdict will be read no earlier than 2pm local time (9pm Irish time).

Spector is charged with murdering 'Barbarian Queen' actress Lana Clarkson in 2003.

The case went to the jury March 26 but there were repeated interruptions including juror illnesses.

Spector’s first trial ended in 2007 with a 10-2 jury deadlock. The majority favoured conviction.
