I don't know but I have always felt that OJ was found not guilty was a pay back for the not guilty verdict for the cops that got away with beating Rodney King an inch of his life. I could be wrong but it always felted that way to me.
When black people cheered after O.J. Simpson’s acquittal, they were not celebrating his release, but defense lawyer Johnnie’s Cochran’s victory over a racist system of justice.
The upshot of the OJ trial? The dividing line in this country isn't race but wealth. It's almost impossible to convict a wealthy man in this country. If OJ had been a middle-aged white, black, or latino landscaper or accountant from Glendale, the trial would have been over in a couple of days and he would be rotting away in the slammer even as I type this.
You are exactly right!
Its makes me wonder whats going on, when this is so obviously true, but then when it actually happens, so many people seem to be angry, outraged, etc. Its not exactly huge breaking news that a wealthy popular sports figure can get away with murder scott free! lol
He was framed, and he was guilty. He hired killers, because he wasn't skillful enough to do it himself without getting caught. Apparently that was too complicated for the LA cops to get into their little squirrel brains, so they just went about planting evidence like they usually do.
The trial brought the California judicial system, including the judge, lawyers, and law enforcement officials, into deserved contempt.

Yes. They tried to frame a guilty man who could afford a dream team defense. The "single assailant" theory simply didn't hold water, which the dream team defense made clear. And the prosecution--which hadn't dealt with much better than public defenders before--were outclassed.
The US has the best justice system money can buy.
Interesting how nobody gets as exercised about Robert Blake being acquitted of murdering his wife.
Johnny Cochran had it wired the minute the jury was selected.......he knew OJ wouldn't ever be convicted with the group seated......and he was right.......they could have had video of the murder and he would have walked. The black and white outlook on OJ is at polar opposites.....ask around a little and you will see it's true..........
That jury composition in that county convicts black defendants every day.
Sadly the only justice on this earth for Nicole’s family and the Goldman’s , is if they took care of justice themselves. But both families are too cultured and educated and have too much character to carry out such an endeavor. Therefore they have to live with their loved ones killer walking free.
If I was Goldman I'd have been practicing shooting a .50 cal long range now for years. I'd practice on an area that looks like a golf course.

It was a direct result of Fred Goldman winning 25 Million dollar lawsuit against OJ that caused OJ to give away all his valuables. Later he tried to get them back that's how he ended up in prison. Goldman hired the best attorney's money can buy his attorneys said if he had been the prosecutor OJ would be convicted Marcia Clark was the worst attorney ever I think she quit practicing law after that because her reputation.
