NEW YORK, Aug. 28 (UPI) -- The man who killed John Lennon, Mark David Chapman, was denied parole for the eighth time after he said he was sorry for being "such an idiot" for seeking notoriety.
The transcript of Chapman's parole hearing on August 20 was released Wednesday, and shows he relayed the timeline of events on the night of December 8, 1980 when he shot Lennon four times outside his Dakota apartment in the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
