re: Watched the OJ 30 for 30: Can anyone possibly believe he didn't do it after that

What blew my mind was that the prosecution team didn't explain that of course a leather glove is going to shrink a lot once it has gotten wet. It's like they didn't even try to explain that or demonstrate that. Were they so lacking in common sense?

They actually did in the rebuttal case. The problem is, of course, that once you have to explain why the glove you insisted OJ tried on didn't fit, you've already lost. The jury is thinking, if you knew it was going to shrink, why did you insist he put it on. It was a huge botch. They should have focused on the shoes. That's what destroyed OJ in the civil case along with his incredibly tone deaf deposition.
