[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, every time a white person erupts in hysterics over the outcome of the OJ trial, I know I am dealing with:

(1) a person too stupid to understand what "beyond reasonable doubt" means.

(2) an idiotic racist who thinks white lives are more important than all other lives. If you are not similarly disturbed and aggrieved by the [I]thousands[/I] of unavenged black deaths in the time since the OJ trial, feel free to take a flying leap off the nearest bridge.[/quote]

I don't understand this. The evidence proved that he did it beyond reasonable doubt. How do you have his blood, Nicole's blood, and Ron's blood at HER house, in HIS car, and at HIS house if he didn't do it? And no one else's blood in ANY of those locations?* What other reasonable scenario is there? And don't say they cops framed him because they didn't have any of OJ's blood to plant in those locations when they were established as crime scenes. If anyone in your life was murdered, you would absolutely accept that much evidence as proof of guilt. Anybody would.

*Plus hairs and clothing fibers from all three people, OJ's gloves at two locations, shoe prints established to be from shoes he owned, etc etc. Not even getting into the multiple eyewitnesses who saw his car in both locations, etc. Just the literal physical evidence at three locations (two houses and the car) that the defense did NOT get thrown out.

When one of the detectives is asked directly if he planted evidence and takes the Fifth, even damning evidence doesn't do much damning anymore.[/quote]

In the documentary Fuhrman says that he had to take the fifth on those questions because he took the fifth on the earlier questions - something about if you don't take the fifth on all questions it negates the protections of the fifth on the earlier questions. The earlier questions were about his usage of the N word. While I don't begrudge him for not wanting to admit he said it, we all heard it anyway, and in my mind, getting OJ prosecuted should have trumped his desire to not incriminate himself.

Fuhrman's interview was interesting. He talks about how he had a nice life up to the minute he was called to investigate the murders and how that all went away. He and Ron Goldman were at the wrong place and the exact wrong time. That's not to excuse Fuhrman's racism, just a point that the course of  (or, in Ron's case, your entire) life can change in an instant. [/quote]
