Whodunnit?

Phil Spector, the record producer and songwriter, was recently sentenced to 19 years in prison for the murder on Lana Clarkson. Apparently the prosecution had a key witness identify Spector as the killer. Here is how it went down:

Prosecution: "Can you identify the person you saw that night with Ms. Clarkson? Is it this man here?"
(shows this picture)


Witness: "No, no, no. Way off. Not even close. This is not the man"


Prosecution: "Okay. So this is not man. I see. What if I told that THIS was in fact the man who was last seen with Ms. Clarkson?"
(prosecution shows this picture)Witness: "Then I'd tell you we're talkin about two different people. I mean, your guy kinda looks like a chick and the hair is all wrong...too clean cut."

Prosecution: "Uh huh. (long pause) So, you're telling me you did not see either of the previous gentlemen?"

Witness: "Yep"

Prosecution: (aside: this is not going well) "Okay. What about this one? Is that the man?"
(shows picture)Witness: "I have to tell you, you're starting to get on the trolley here. This guy definitely resembles the dude I saw. But still, the guy I saw was a lot crazier looking. I'm still saying no, this is not the man."

Prosecution: "Uh huh. Hmmmmm. Ahhhh, we're running out of photos here.....ah, let me just flip through some more photos....hmmmmm....little more crazy....on the right track....oh, here, how bout this one?" (another picture)




Witness: "Oh, oh.....you're really close with this one. The spooky eyes and ghostly face....yes that could definitely be the guy......But, I have to say, I wouldn't be comfortable saying beyond a shadow of a doubt, that this was in fact the guy I saw. Still something wrong. Maybe a little too much hair."


Prosecution: "For Chrissakes. Jesus, I thought I nailed that one. Hold on a sec..."(flips through more photos until he holds this one up) "Is this the-?"




Witness: "Bingo! That's him."

The prosecutors and jury erupt in a mock standing ovation.

Seriously, why did they need two trial to figure this shit out? This guy is clearly insane in the brain.
