OJ Pimpson

This case has many thing amuses me sensing how many things went wrong and OJ was still found innocent. First off, I believe that Mark Fuhrman is a bigot, and had no place in this case. Right off the bat you could tell he was going after OJ simply based off of his race. Fuhrman had claimed that he saw blood in OJ's vehicle, at his estate, and all around the inside of his household. Simpson's defense team claimed that Fuhrman had planted the glove at Simpson's estate. Yes I believe OJ did it, but my question is why did Mark Fuhrman go to such extremes to try to prove OJ was guilty? In my opinion, if Fuhrman never got involved, I believe OJ would've been found guilty right off the bat because of all the other evidence.

OJIZZLE

one of the main things that stands out and makes me most confused is the fact that they have all this proof and he's still able to walk free. from the shoes to the DNA results that clearly show that OJ was at the scene the time of the killings and still not convicted. this just goes to show how if you have money you'll get out of things. it makes me think about how many crimes and victims go without justice in the justice system because some people have more money than others. anther thing is that even though he was found not guilty, a judge still granted him full custody of his kids. they still must have some thought in the back of their heads that he did in fact kill his wife and they still let him have his children.

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.

Race Card

A whole city outraged with the LAPD over racism and police brutality against African Americans after the Rodney King beating in 1991.  A sense of outrage lied with the whole African American community against the LAPD played a huge favor in OJ and the defense team.  A jury packed with 10 African Americans already shared a bias against the LAPD, and especially in the Los Angeles community where the trial was moved too, instead of Santa Monica.  Atomically advantage given to the defense with a bias against police and a community who has OJ's back even if evidence pointed toward him.  A rare case where being black may have helped OJ in this case and kept him "innocent".

OJ Simpson Trial

This case is very interesting because it was what pretty much started reality TV. The fact that Americans watched the case not because it was for justice or righteousness but more for entertainment is what bothers me. Reporters were embarrassed of covering the case every day or every week. This shows how our societies priorities are a bit off sometimes. Also the effect the media had and how much evidence wasn't used or was used improperly was baffling. I think so many things went wrong in this case and that OJ was definitely guilty. Just so many things went wrong, too many coincidences.

Still dont know how I feel about OJ with no pulp

I think that there are only two things in this whole case that made me believe that he was guilty. One was all the blood and DNA found on the scene and the fact that it was clearly OJ's, 1 in 6.7 billion. The other thing that made me believe OJ was guilty was how he was in a cop chase and was found with a gun, mask, money and blood in his white bronco. And the fact he said "I'm the one that deserves to get hurt" made him sound self incriminating. At the same time I don't want to believe that he was guilty because there was too much room for mistakes which did happen on the LAPD's half as well as how Fuhrman came off and how he presented himself. Also I found it suspicious that Vannatter drove off with the blood for a few hours with no supervision.

Thoughts on O.J.

With the evidence I feel that O.J. could have been convicted guilty. However, I believe that it is mostly because the persecution lacked the communication skills to persuade the jury. The case was really not new and because he was famous he had the advantage of the public. Other stars have had their stories and cases in courts too, but I believe this one was different because it was different. He was so determined to get certain lawyers and had that special lawyer group. He was not convincing whatsoever and he contradicted himself so much yet he'd smile and wave at the public. It is fascinating because he sucked so much and the money that he had could possibly be a reason why he wasn't convicted. It could also be because the people wanted something different and everything about the case was out in public. I feel like good for him if he can do that, it just shows how much farther we have to go in the court system. It also says a lot on us the people and what we like and how much attention we put to something so irreverent. It is amazing how he got away with it and it was very sloppy. At the end I feel like the consequences of what this trial didn't give will be given to society and will put guilty people to the test as well as change how the media receives celebrity's convictions.
