Most blacks I knew believed OJ DID it but were glad he got off anyway.
Why?Because they said look at all the white Klan types who were freed of murder charges in the Fifties and Sixties by all white juries.
Most blacks saw the verdict as karma.
My boss at the time was a black man in Los Angeles making about 2 mil a year and new that O.J. was set-up (in his mind). What can I say? It was hell.
