>>>I just watched it. Now why would he hug him? Is it common for a defense attorney to schmooze the DA? I wonder. I'd have a hard time looking at the guy. <<<
Think about it. Nifong has generated a rich dumb Yankee white boy who's folks got money for this attorney. Plus there is an excellent possibility of a federal trial.

Actually Simpson had 3 stories on the injuries on his left hand (that match the bloody trail left at the Murder Scene):
1) He cut it on glass when he squeezed a glass in Chicago when he was advised of Nicole's death.
2) He cut it at Nicole's house a week before and then
he said the night of the recital he cut it.
3) He said he couldn't remember how he cut himself.
VA: We've got some blood on and in your car, we've got some blood at your house, and sort of a problem.
OJ: Well, take my blood test.
TL: Well, we'd like to do that. We've got, of course, the cut on your finger that you aren't real clear on. Do you recall having that cut on your finger the last time you were at Nicole's house?
OJ: A week ago?
TL: Yeah.
OJ: No. It was last night.
TL: OK, so last night you cut it.
VA: Somewhere after the recital?
OJ: Somewhere when I was rushing to get out of my house.
VA: OK, after the recital.
OJ: Yeah.
VA: What do you think happened? Do you have any idea?
OJ: I have no idea, man. You guys haven't told me anything. I have no idea. When you said to my daughter, who said something to me today, that somebody else might have been involved, I have absolutely no idea what happened. I don't know how, why or what.
