Juror #2 seemed to be a much more reasonable person than some probably expected. The other juror (#9) was going for punishment, though she did make some points about the evidence. She outright said her decision was a Rodney King based one. She was punishing the police.

I thought it was very interesting to hear Fuhrman talk about handing the jury doubt when he was discussing the handling of the evidence which was brought back to the crime scene. First time I've heard him say that, I believe. Ironic since he also handed the jury doubt.

I thought after watching every day of that trial that the jury wouldn't convict, not because of race, but because they could find reasonable doubt all over the place. The police and the prosecution botched it so badly. They were handed excuses to avoid conviction. I think some of the jury decided on race and some on doubt.

This was the first time I'd seen the uncensored crime scene photos. Even more horrific than I could have imagined from the description.

I taped this documentary and wasn't sure I was going to watch it after watching that other series. There was also that feeling of not giving OJ more attention, but I'm glad I watched it. The interviews with players was very interesting.

Well done. Part five was great. Didn't know the facts about his Vegas arrest. They punked him hard during sentencing. 33 years...$33 million.

Eh. She knows Simpson did it. She makes herself feel better by saying the prosecution screwed up. Goes to show how much of a role the personality of the attorneys plays in the courtroom. Look at the Casey Anthony trial. Jeff Ashton vs Cheney Mason. She fell for the Cochran charm. She was never going to rock the jury boat either. She clearly justifies is to herself by blaming the prosecution. Still no mention of actual evidence.
