OJ Simpson dead

Weird, was just watching documentaries about him this week and the one they looked into his son.

I've not seen all the evidence but the blood on his car and motive should have been enough to have him put away forever
Hand picked jury of below average intelligence who didn’t really understand what DNA evidence was. Took absolutely ages to get a jury the defence would agree to, stitch up from the very start.

Yeh, it was definitely off.

Shame we never got the confession before he died.... that we know of.
 
I still find it inconceivable he got away with that double murder charge. I guess him being such a huge star in America probably helped.
The jury acquitted him in just 4 hours after 11 months of evidence.

The prosecution fucked up when they made him try on the leather glove that was never going to fit after being soaked in blood. It had clearly shrunk. It was a spectacular own goal and ultimately saw him walk free.

No prosecution totally fuvked up when they moved the trial downtown. Should have been tried much closer to where the crime was committed - in Brentwood.

Would have been convicted there not downtown LA though.

Wasn't it the defen(s)ce that pushed for a change of venue?

I also seem to recall the judge made some very strange decisions about what he would allow or object to.

They also took the jury to OJ's house where the defence had set up pictures of him and his family everywhere.

I can't remember if they did or didn't have white folk in the pictures.

Think it was very much a political decision, this trial came hot on the heels of the LA riots that pretty much spiralled out of control which were as a consequence of the acquittal of the officers who beat up Rodney King. Him being freed was awful for the family and friends of his victims but probably saved scores of lives.
