OJ didn't testify and was found innocent.... it was the civil trial where he did testify they found him guilty. Body language is a lot in any trial, but reading the transcripts, If I was the lawyers I think I would not have put either man on the stand, I would not have stipulated the bullet was from any agents gun and would have used my closing argument to point out there was enough doubt in Chris Sanchez and Rene Sanchez' testimony to not find my clients guilty.

OJ's criminal was an anomaly because it was one the few cases where the criminal defense attorneys had as many resources as the prosecutor. I would love to try a case with Dershowitz faxing me questions to ask a witness in real time, or have Barry schenk doing the cross exam on the DNA evidence. With those resources they did very good job of creating a reasonable doubt in the juror's minds. I don't think these guys had the resources available to OJ.
