Without question. I'm as sure he's a murderer as I'm certain the sun will rise tomorrow.

Fair point but the prosecution team allowed the trial to become a smoke & mirror show


Judge Lance Ito was more to blame for that. The judge is responsible for keeping things in line, the judge decides what evidence can legally be admitted, and the judge has the power to stop all of the speculation and hearsay. Ito was caught up in the celebrity of it all.

The fact that he was without a doubt framed by the LAPD makes judging his guilt or innocence very difficult. Yeah he probably did it but there's reasonable doubt.

Not trying to clown on you are anything. But I take anything Fuhrman has to say with a grain on salt.

As a soon-to-be law student, I'll use my still limited legal knowledge, and say that I blame the prosecution's failure on two things (other than racial views within the jury):

1) The glove. Chris Darden should have never asked him to try on the gloves. The problem was that due to the blood soaking the gloves, they had drawn up; the gloves had been kept cold to preserve evidence (cold wasn't good for the leather); OJ had to wear latex gloves to avoid harming the evidence on the gloves. These factors made it likely that the gloves would have had no chance of fitting, and the prosecution should have known this. I think Darden thought the gloves could be their big moment, but it back fired.

2) Putting Mark Fuhrman on the stand. The defense employed a racism narrative to raise the possibility that Fuhrman (who found the glove at OJ's house) had planted the glove there and thus, raise reasonable doubt. Fuhrman then testified that he never used the "N word", which was debunked by the tapes of him saying that word. This worked out perfectly for the defense, as it made it clear that Fuhrman was a racist and helped the narrative that he could have planted the glove because of racist motivations.

However, Lead Prosecutor, Marcia Clark, has since raised a good point which is that she had no choice but to put him on the stand. Because he found the glove that was at OJ's house, having other investigators testify instead of him would have raised suspicion that the prosecution was hiding something.

I believed, based on the evidence, that he killed them.

What, for me, completely confirmed that belief:

His "That's a lie!" outburst, complete with pointed finger, when a detective testified that the shower drain in his bathroom wasn't damaged during evidence collection.

During presentation of gory evidence and testimony that he did this/that during the murder, he didn't utter a peep, just doodled or joked with his attorneys or looked bored.

Plus, he was ruled responsible in the civil trial - which was basically the criminal trial minus the race baiting, theatrics, all black jury, and incompetent judge.


Big difference was they got to cross-examine his lying arse in the civil trial.

Yes I'm sure he killed them but don't think he meant to. I don't think he really was meaning to cut Nichole's throat. I think he was really just trying to cut Ron's dick off.


Are you implying that his dick was in her throat at the time?

As well as a judge with any remote competency and whose every step was only focused on how he can get more famous. Ito's license to practice law should have been revoked after that shite show of a trial. I have no idea how he had the balls to continue being a judge after that.

Didn't he write a book admitting to it?

I think he was guilty, but had help. Goldman was in the prime of his life and a 3rd degree black belt.

What a fool you are!

a) while there were some less than perfect methods, there was no "framing" by LAPD. The police flaws amount to, essentially nothing, when weighed against the evidence of guilt. You need a dictionary.

b) there is a difference between "reasonable doubt" and an absolute rock-solid "caught on video" scenario. You do not have a good comprehension of reasonable doubt. Again, you need a dictionary.
