And btw, the trial was lost when the LA supreme court moved it from the Santa Monica court system to downtown LA where the jury ended up 8 or 9 blacks, 2 whites, and an Asian.
The prosecution made mistakes, but I remember watching the verdict announcement and being shocked. There was enough evidence to overcome REASONABLE doubt.

He did it, of course he did. The police botched the investigation and the prosecution was outclassed by the defense. Was it premeditated? Don't know, probably. But even though he was found not gulity, he has still lost everything - money, popularity, influence, respect. He's a pariah, and that's as it should be.

If you read about the jury bios, you'll definitely see that the prosecution lost the case at jury selection. I think none of them had college degrees, two hadn't finished high school, a few said up front they didn't understand or believe in DNA evidence, and more than one professed admiration for Simpson.
