Simpson Trial

After watching all these videos on the OJ Simpson Trial, I think it's incredible how a guilty man got away with murder. Who is at fault for this is hard to point the finger to, because the jury's lack of understanding and knowledge really hurt the prosecutions evidence. The prosecution I think is also at fault because it seemed like they never really prepared to present their evidence, and example of how unprepared they were is when they asked OJ to put the gloves on himself. Yet the DNA evidence presented I think made it clear that there was nobody else but OJ who could possibly have committed the murder. The fact that the jury couldn't understand this just gives me an understanding of how the jury was so unprepared. This trial could of been conducted better if the jury selection could of been different.

  1. As for the jury selection created for this trial, are there certain types of races, characteristics, beliefs, genders, etc. that you think could have been to further condition an equal group of jury members,?
