A jury has been selected for the murder retrial of music pioneer Phil Spector.
Attorneys immediately began questioning more prospective jurors Thursday to find six alternates.
Opening statements are scheduled for later this month, and the trial is expected to last until January.
Spector is accused of shooting actress Lana Clarkson five years ago. A mistrial was declared in the recording innovator’s first trial a year ago when jurors could not reach a decision.
His lawyers argued that Clarkson was despondent about her fading career and shot herself.
