Serves as a good reminder that when you pay thousands of dollars for voir dire advise, you should probably follow it.

Marsha Clark lost that case in jury selection because of her ego.

We were a bunch of idiot sophomores at a 98% white catholic School in St Bernard running around yelling the juice is loose with starburst stickers saying the same.

the gym at my middle school. All the kids were cheering like they knew what was going on. Now I know it was just divided by race

That was my senior year in high school. I remember all of the black kids dancing in the cafeteria and I didn't know wtf was going on.

Freshman year of high school, English I class. Teacher polled the class if it would be guilty, not guilty or hung jury. Nobody really cared about the verdict. We just didn’t pay attention to the news back then.

At work, could not believe the verdict until it dawned on me the jury make up.

At least OJ is now free to search for the real killers.

Rumor must have it they're on a golf course or some bar in Florida.

I was in 3rd grade, so I was probably smacking the frick out of some multiplication tables or diagramming sentences.

I wonder if Chris Rock is still waiting for his "OJ prize".

PSA: Chris Rock is hosting SNL tonight so if it's anything like the Eddie Murphy episode last season it is must see TV.

I was in my high school TV and Film class. We watched the verdict being read, and it was pretty uncomfortable not knowing how to react with all the black students in the room. It would be another few years until you could openly joke with black folks about OJ getting away with murder.
