Spector pleads not guilty to murder charge

Famed rock producer Phil Spector has pleaded innocent to an indictment charging him with murdering actress Lana Clarkson and claimed he was the victim of a prosecutor who was acting like Adolf Hitler.

Spector, 53,was indicted by a Los Angeles County grand jury last week and the indictment was unsealed yesterday before he entered his plea.

Outside the court, Spector said: "The actions of the Hitler-like district attorney and his storm trooper henchmen are reprehensible, unconscionable and despicable."
