Of course we all heard about the OJ juror who was a Black panther and raised his fist and winked at OJ in the courtroom... You didn't? Oh wait, neither did I.

Yes, a juror really did give Simpson the raised fist as he left the courtroom. His name was Lionel (Lon) Cryer, and as The New York Times reported, he was “a former Black Panther whom prosecutors had inexplicably left on the panel.” I’ll give you a minute to pick up your dropped jaw: Yes, there was an ex-Panther on the Simpson jury. Here he is in the Washington Post, commenting on the prosecution’s case against OJ: “It was garbage in, garbage out,” said Cryer, a former Black Panther Party member who raised his left arm in a clenched-fist salute to Simpson as the panelists walked out of the courtroom on Tuesday.

I noticed that in the show Cochran did a black power salute himself at one point as well.
Absolute travesty then and even more obvious now. That was a ‘get back at whitey’ verdict.
Black people cheered!
That whole parade was never about justice. Who knew OJ Simpson was such a scumbag? Hell, when I was a kid he was one of my heros, “The Juice” and all that.
Turned out to be an above average murderous POS. Just barely above average.
Sort of like the Muslims dancing in the streets after 9-11.
yes, OJ and Bruce Jenner were heroes. Whoops.
Funny how no one else has ever been fund to have committed the murders in 22 years.
You’d think someone who did it would have bragged that they got away with it and spilled the beans by now.
Looks like OJ did it after all.
The black white divide started with the clipped Rodney King video in 1992, the OJ verdict in 1995 revealed that the split was always there under the surface.
It has never healed, and Obama ripped the scabs off of it since 2008.
If you are a “gang member” at that age you are a little on the immature side....street gangs are for juvenile delinquents an besides that, his tie is either too short or improperly tied...grow up jackass.
he looks likes he ready to have a massive stroke or heart attack...poor thing.....I’ll bet he’ll be in diapers soon...
I did. It's in Whatshisname's (Darnell, Darden?) book, the black guy who was Marcia Clark's assistant on the case.
