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?

Of course to this jury how could anything be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. They were like the Flat Earth Society. You couldn't prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the Earth is not flat because from where they're standing it does appear to be flat and anything to disprove it is just fakery by the man

Isn't there a theory and it has been somewhat proved that it was Jason and OJ not just OJ?

Even if the prosecution had presented a slam dunk case there was still a good chance O.J. would have gotten off because at least one juror was going to hold out.

They also had OJ off his anti-inflammatories for a bit, so his hands swelled up.

Or the fact that for Furhman to plant the glove, he had to have known at the time for a concrete fact that OJ did not have an alibi. He wasn't in a woman's bed, at a bar, at a restaurant, on a plane, at a neighbor's house, that his daughter wasn't visiting him in his house, or making any financial transaction whatsoever. If Furhman didn't know that, then he's heavily risking himself getting felony charges and going to prison for a while.

No. Watch the documentary. There's no way in hell Jason did it or that there was another person at the scene of the crime. There's no evidence whatsoever that he was involved, and hundreds of pieces of evidence that it was OJ. Nicole wasn't screaming to multiple people that Jason was going to kill her.

To be honest after watching the documentary, that theory has become quite insulting to me.

So the 30 for 30 is the end all be all? That is very dangerous to only take one source. A director/producer can easily manipulate the feeling of a "documentary".

Yeah. It's incredibly thorough. One of the jurors point blank says that she knows he did it, but they were going to let him off regardless due to Rodney King. The only people in that documentary out of 80 people interviewed who thinks that OJ is still innocent are F Lee Bailey (who is totally full of shite and lying) and one of his childhood friends.

And how Bill Hodgman paints the night of the murders, it's hard to deny that is in all likelihood what happened. There was so much blood and it was so fricking violent that there's no way that there wouldn't be further evidence of another person being on the scene.

Watch this scene. It's about an hour in. Warning, it's highly, highly graphic and NSFW: LINK

He was first at the scene, first at Rockingham, and found one of the key pieces of physical evidence. There was no way he wasn't going to end up on the stand.

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.

I have already seen it. I have watched multiple documentaries on this case and read multiple studies about the case.

Then how would there be no evidence of him being there and why would OJ have left the glove behind?

There is evidence in the blood evidence. The blood evidence is unreliable though as it was mixed with all of the people at the scene. There is also evidence by OJ saying I couldn't do this myself. There's been statements also by Jason that seem cryptic. I am in no way, shape, or form saying OJ is innocent, I just do not believe it was just him. There was someone else involved.



ETA: The dumbest theory out there was the drug angle. The people who use that theory are really reaching.

And Darden did that for them when he allowed him to try on the glove.

"If the glove don't fit, you must acquit" might sound stupid, but that's all he needed to say.


Gross incompetence.

You don't allow a hostile witness to perform a demonstration with the evidence in front of the jury.

ESPECIALLY one you can't compel to testify, and you know will not testify at trial.

Darden got his ego hurt and tried to fight against Cochran. Just made himself look stupid and ended up ruining his reputation

ive been trying to figure out what the biggest frick up was for the prosecution. its between:

a) letting the trial take place where it took place and because of that
b) having the jury that they had
c) marsha clark having her head so far up her arse that she thought she could relate to african american women when it was so clear that she couldnt
d) letting the jury take a walk through OJs house
e) basing their case on the crime scene and not vetting the first officer on the scene who ends up having a recording of him saying some horrible, disgusting, vile shite
f) the glove

i mean what a truly remarkable study in what not to do. they literally lost an unlosable trial
