John Lennon's killer Mark David Chapman has told the parole board in New York he thought by killing the Beatle he would become a somebody.
Instead, Chapman told the board that "I became a murderer and murderers are not somebodies", according to the published transcript of the interview.
Chapman was denied parole for the sixth time last week.
Chapman, now aged 55, shot and killed Lennon outside his New York apartment in December 1980.
