One witness got $181,000? All together they received over $400,000? That’s chump change compared to some experts.
I had the pleasure of seeing most of the first Phil Spector trial on Court TV (now TRUTV). Alan Jackson spectacularly tore apart the shame expert testimony. Dr. Baden was shown to be a total fool.
The high paid experts tried to establish a suicide senario. But Ms. Clarkson had her handbag strap over her shoulder. Case closed on suicide. She was going to leave Spector’s Castle.
Dr. Baden greater crime was in the Anderson boot camp case in Florida. He stirred up racial animosity and helped terrorize the teachers at the camp. He was disgusting.
