re: I genuinely hope that I was right and that OJ was really guilty

Judge Ito deserves a lot of the blame for how that trial went. He was clearly intimidated by the defense team, the threats of violence if OJ was found guilty and his own image in the media.

That doofus lost control of his courtroom, and the rest is history.

The prosecution team was one gaffe after another as well. Asking OJ to try on the gloves is probably taught in law schools as a textbook "Do not."

edit: To be fair, I don't recall exactly if they asked him to, or if the defense team asked and they allowed -- either way inexcusable.
