[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be fair, if anyone responding on here by saying that O.J. Simpson was innocent, is under say…..45 yrs. old then sorry but your opinion would be simply based on things that you have read about, etc.

Those 45+ who actually remember when everything happened actually can vouch for the fact that there was a lot of compelling evidence presented in court, however the jury simply focused on the wrong things when making their decision to acquit.

There were mistakes made during the aftermath of the actual murder, I.e., contaminated blood from investigators walking throughout the crime scene.
Also, Mark Furhman, the detective who claimed he found the bloody glove on OJ’s property could not be trusted since he publicly perjured himself on the witness stand.

That key part was a huge blow to the defense as nothing he said could be taken in as legitimate.
Finally the jury pool was predominantly Black and at the time, Black people were still hugely angry due to the Rodney King situation and this was a golden opportunity to make a statement.

OJ had a ton of compelling evidence against him - DNA and more.
However there were other factors at play during the trial which the jury focused on instead which caused a murderer to walk free. 🙁[/quote]

This is an excellent point indeed.
Those who are saying O.J. Simpson is innocent were likely not even born when the trial occurred or if they were they likely were still too young to have known what was going on in our country.

They mostly are just going off of what they have read or seen of the past…..or here say.

You would likely have to be in your forties now if you actually remember all that went on in ‘95.[/quote]
Well, I'm in my 50's and remember the events of OJ's arrest and trail fairly well. However, I was never a fan of his so I didn't follow the trial. By follow the trial, I mean that I didn't come home from work to watch any of it on TV or listen to the talking heads or "legal experts" dissect the events of the day. The jury found him not guilty in the criminal trial, and that was good enough for me.[/quote]
