Lisa, this probably doesn't help, but maybe it will spark someone's memory.
She said the defense would offer 10 separate scientific bases on which to prove Spector did not fire the fatal shot. Among them was what she described as the small amount of blood spatter on the white coat the music legend was wearing the night of the shooting.
She said there were only 18 diffuse blood spots on the coat in contrast with the extensive blood patterns on Clarkson's garments, chest and face. Holding up the sleeve of the suit jacket of another defense attorney, Christopher Plourd, as an example, she pointed out various areas that, she said, would have been stained with blood if they were close to the gun blast.
"It would have been all over him like it was all over her, and it wasn't," she said.
Phil Spector's lawyer said brain tissue was detected on Lana Clarkson's buttons.
She said the same was true of brain tissue. A residue of such matter was detected on the buttons of Clarkson's jacket sleeve, but not on Spector's clothes, she said.
"It proves scientifically that he, Phillip, was not near her when she was shot," Kenney-Baden said, adding that the location of the tissue on Clarkson's sleeve suggests she was holding her hands up to her mouth as she would if pulling the trigger.
She contrasted the extensive gunshot residue on Clarkson's body and clothing with what she said was a minimal amount on Spector.
Kenney-Baden said the defense could not show why Clarkson killed herself, but read from several e-mails, in which the actress wrote about depression or worries for the future.
"I'm going to tidy my affairs and chuck it because it is really too much for this girl to bear," read one.
The lawyer stopped short of saying that Clarkson had loaded the gun, but said the DNA tests proved Spector had not.
"They found only Lana Clarkson's DNA and some other unknown person, not Phil Spector's," she said.
Kenney-Baden's methodically organized preview of the case stood in marked contrast to Cutler, her colleague. The flamboyant New York City attorney had to scrap his planned opening statement Wednesday afternoon after the prosecution opted not to introduce Spector's police statements, as the defense had anticipated.
In the address he concluded Thursday morning, he suggested police rushed to judgment of Spector because of his wealth and fame, and said Spector told him daily, "I did not fire that gun."
