Dominick Dunne knows a lot about how the look on somebody's face can say a lot. Remember the look on his face at the O.J. trial, when Simpson was found not guilty? Dunne's face said it all!

Dunne's face said it all!
Hate to admit that I (even for a fairly literate "Okie" at the time) didn't know Dunne
but by literary reputation.
But the face that got me was the lawyer friend of O.J.'s ...named something like
Kardasian (sp?). When O.J. was read his not-guilty verdict, Kardasian looked
like he'd been hit by a thunderbolt.
Anyway...if the topic interests you, a "sidebar" has surfaced in Los Angeles in the
last year in the local free weekly "NewTimesLA" (a MUCH better local investigative source
than the Los Angeles Times!) and even on local talk radio (on "The John and Ken Show"
on 640AM).
This investigator by the name of William Dear from Dallas has been (apparently)
following his nose and built what I think is at least a plausible case that NOT O.J., but
his mentally-unstable son (from his first marriage) might have done the double murder...
without any fore-knowledge of the act on O.J.'s part. Most damning info. that didn't come
out at the time of the trial (to Dear, and probably me to) is O.J. hiring his son the
services of a very prominent criminal defense lawyer a day or so after the murders (if I recall
Dear's thesis correctly).
This Dear fellow my just be grandstanding, but I haven't heard any "de-bunkers" really
take him (or his theories) on yet in the past year.
In case you're a murder-theory junky, you can find Dear's book on amazon.com:
O.J. Is Guilty But Not of Murder
by William C. Dear
PS: My "brush with fame"
1. Moved to LA in late 1995; accidentally found and took up an apartment 1.5 blocks from
the site of the (in)famous double murder.
2. Got stuck in traffic on Sunset Blvd. while running an errand...on the day O.J. was released
from the criminal trial.
