Phil Spector Receives Ass-Kicking in Jail

Phil Spector has already been roughed up by the legal system. Now the convicted killer and certified creep is receiving a new taste of jail house justice! The hot-tempered music legend is minding his tongue after having several teeth knocked out by a fellow inmate at the state prison in Corcoran, Calif. “Phil has quite a mouth on him,” says longtime pal Steven Escobar. “Not everyone understands his humor.

This is Phil Spector. This is just terrifying . “He mouthed off to a big guy, who punched him,” a source says of Phil, who’s serving 19 years to life for shooting Lana Clarkson in the mouth in 2003. “At first, Phil said that he fell down a flight of stairs,” says Escobar of his incarcerated buddy. “Later, he told family and friends what really happened.” A spokesman for Spector’s wife, Rachelle, initially corroborated that there was a jail house incident in November, telling the N.Y.
