That case was lost - by the prosecution.
There is no way anybody could say that that particular jury represented the type of neighborhood that the crime was committed in.
And as far as evidence went, I can certainly understand, given the fact that he routinely beat the hell out of her, that her blood was in his car - but Goldmans? No way, no chance, that puts OJ at the scene. That seals the deal.
And Cochranes “If it doesn’t fit...”
Hey, you could go to any decent theatre group and pick five people out. Take them to Sears and buy perfectly fitting gloves. Then have them act like the glove doesn’t fit. Or take the gloves and soak them in water. Or ...
The prosecution lost that case.
It was lost by a racially biased jury and in incompetent judge.
Yes the prosecution lost it with allowing the jury that took the case to remain and not challanging (from what I understand) certain jurors during the trial for making comments/calls/discussions most other jurors would have been thrown out for.
And that’s where I’ll stop on that point.
