Producer Phil Spector sells his castle in Los Angeles to pay numerous appeals of the court decisions, which eventually sentenced him to 19 years in prison on charges of killing the Hollywood actress and model Lana Clarkson. The murder was committed just in this building.
According to The Times , the 69-year-old spector asked his wife Rachel Short, who is engaged in sale, to leave only valuable objects that have already become the history of rock and roll. These include, for example, musical instruments donated by the spectra John Lennon and Aiku Terner. Later they can be separately sold at auction.
The money from the sale of a 30-room mansion made under the French castle will be able to cover only a small part of the multimillion-dollar legal accounts of the famous producer. According to realtors, the cost of the mansion over the past months has fallen from $ 1.3 million to 800 thousand.
In 1998, the spector bought it for $ 1 million. As the representative of Sotheby's International Realty noted, perhaps the house will still be able to sell for the same amount - after all, "the halo" at home where the famous murder "has occurred over it now. It is reported that several applications from potential buyers have already received.
