The most unusual event, jury nullification, happens in the highest profile criminal case of the century, and hundreds of millions of people learn the wrong lesson as a result.

The jury got a bad rap. The prosecution was incompetent and OJ's defense destroyed them. The jury had no choice.

I've seen this over and over. Political hack prosecutors try to make a name for themselves, blow the cases, and the juries get blamed. It's happening in Baltimore now.

Oh please. They had every choice. There was plenty of evidence WITHOUT the DNA to convict.

Except in Baltimore the correct verdicts are being reached.

Stacked with a female and a black attorney. . .trying to play the system instead of getting the best prosecutors available.

they had tons of reading material to review and it should have taken days to go thru all the details...the jury did not....they simply decided that the white man was going to get their dear black brother murderer....

racist jury..period...
