There was no verdict that the jury could have given that would have been satisfying. On the one hand, he was a murderer who deserved to be found guilty. On the other hand, the incompetent handling of the crime scene, evidence, and prosecution in court deserved a not guilty result
My Dad summed it up back when he said, "The LAPD tried to frame a guilty man." We live in a country where Casey Anthony and Robert Blake were found not guilty, and those cases were a lot stronger than the OJ case, and lacked the police misconduct of the OJ case.

There's a lot of truth in that. I was upset when I was young during the verdict, but reading about the police and lab issues later in life made me think I would probably have said not guilty as a juror. Posted on 8/17/14 at 7:17 am to trackfan

exactly what was the prime example of 'misconduct' in the OJ case in your mind?
I think the trial was a travesty and they tried to put on too much evidence. They proved OJ guilty 1000 times over, and could have reached that conclusion without the theatrics. Those are procedural miscalculations in my mind, not misconduct.
What did the police do that reaches the level of misconduct in your opinion? - serious question.

That's pretty good stuff. Great way of looking at it that I've never considered.
