A posting on the social networking site MySpace that appeared to threaten the judge in music producer Phil Spector's murder trial has become the latest twist in the lengthy case, the AP reported.
On Tuesday, court officials disclosed the posting, which stated "I love Phil Spector" and "The Evil Judge should die!" The message was on a MySpace page called "Team Spector" and was taken down, officials said. The judge in the case is Larry Fidler.
Sheriff's investigators were looking into the messages, which were signed "xoxo Chelle," AP reported. Spector's wife is named Rachelle, but one of his defense attorneys, said she denied having anything to do with the notes.
Specter is charged with second-degree murder in the February 2003 death of actress Lana Clarkson. The case went to the jury on Sept. 10 and the jury could not reach a decision.
