Legendary record producer Phil Spector was arrested on February 3 in connection with the murder of woman at his California mansion. The victim was identified as actress Lana Clarkson, 40.
Police said Clarkson had small roles in Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Scarface, and made a living playing Xena-like warrior women in such B-flicks as Barbarian Queen and Amazon Woman on the Moon.
