Trial Opens over Eagles Lyrics as Defendants Face Charges for Thwarting Don Henley's Efforts to Reclaim Stolen Lyrics
  • 2 months ago
An unusual criminal trial is set to open over handwritten lyrics to Eagles hits like "Hotel California." Rare book dealer Glenn Horowitz, former Rock Hall curator Craig Inciardi, and memorabilia seller Edward Kosinski face charges. The documents included draft lyrics for "Hotel California" and other album songs. Don Henley reported the lyrics stolen after noticing them for auction and buying some back. The defendants are accused of scheming to thwart Henley's efforts to reclaim the documents. They indicated last week they would forgo a jury trial so the judge will decide the verdict.
