Just a few facts from the case:

1)Simpson did own Bruno Magli shoes, the kind of shoeprints left at the crime scene. Many pictures were found of him wearing those at a football game. Those shoes were never found. (Some of this evidence was presented at the later civil trial.)

2) Simpson wore size 12 shoes, the same size left at the crime scene.

3) Simpson did own Isotoner gloves, the kind found at the crime scene and at Simpson’s home. Pictures showed him wearing a pair at a football game, plus receipts were presented showing that Nicole had purchased them.

4) The killer had a cut somewhere on the left side of his body. We know this because blood was dripped along the left side of the killer’s footprints. Simpson had a cut on this left hand the next day.

5) The DNA matched Simpson’s.

6) Simpson had no real alibi for the time in question.

7) Simpson acted like a guilty man. Why try to run when you’re innocent?

8) He had plenty of motive. He’d battered Nicole in the past and made threatening comments to her.

This should’ve been an open and shut case, but the defense had the race card, and as Robert Shapiro stated, they played it “from the bottom of the deck”. Simpson is guilty. Will he ever truly confess? That remains to be seen.

As you recall, the only blood evidence tying Simpson to anything was planted because it contained EDTA. The sock on his bed was found to have the blood going through from one side to the other. It had not been splashed on during a murder. It had been poured on in situ in OJ's house. The blood on the back gate that didn't appear earlier, was later found after the LA detective returned to the house carrying OJ's blood in stoppered vials, again, with EDTA.

The most likely person to have dropped the bloody glove on Simpson's property was the cop who raced right over there after being relieved by other cops from the crime scene where he had been for a while alone with all the evidence. He pretty much guaranteed that the LAPD would have to fix things the next day as the EDTA showed they did.

As far as the race card goes, it was the lack of physical evidence as well as the physical evidence that didn't fit, together with a completely incompetent prosecution, that won the acquittal.

The reason why he should have turned in his man-card, long ago.
