Your right, all the facts aren't in, except that a woman is dead. It's like when the band the Dead Kennedys burst on the scene, a lot of people were righteously indignant about the name because they thought it was just a cheap shot at two of our country's most respected leaders in order to gain quick publicity and free promotion. Not everybody deals with senseless violence in the same way. Some of us go to church and pray, some of us buy flowers to lay at the grave site and some of us get so pissed off we just roll up our anger like a big snowball and hurl it back into the face of America and say "Why do we have to have so many goddamned guns?!?" As the saying goes "guns don't kill people, people kill people" to which I retort "guns don't kill people...BUT THEY SURE HELP". As Hunter S. Thompson wrote "you can turn your back on the man, but don't turn your back on the drug".I think this might be what happened in the Phil Spector case.
