Great doc but why can’t people just be evil on their own? There always has to be an outside force: mind control lol, mk ultra lol. No, some people are just messed up in the head and have violent tendencies
Gotta disagree with you on this one Jason. Yes the prosecution wasn't perfect but they lost the case before it even started when they allowed that jury pool. They had 9 black, 2 Hispanic and 1 white. They thought that they had so much evidence that people would do the right thing. Being the only black man on the prosecution team I blame Christopher Darden for that. He should have known the temperature in the black community especially seeing that this was a year after Rodney King. They never should have agreeded to that. If they had OJ on video killing them and turned to the camera and laughed there's no way in Hell that mostly black jury was going to say he was guilty. They felt they had the opportunity to stick it man. That's what happened
Really? And why I agree with mostly what you posted we have to offer some balance here. Were you as passionate when Timothy Wind and Theodore Briseno were acquitted of all charges in the Rodney King incident, for their roles in the beating? "There was ocular proof of what happened and was caught on videotape. And yet, we saw a verdict that told us we couldn't trust our lying eyes. That what we thought was open and shut was really 'a reasonable expression of police control' toward a black motorist. It's funny that you quote the 'temperature" in the black community for that situation but fail to mention previous incidents. And while we may both agree that certain individual might have felt the opportunity to "stick it to the man" its also a case of " The chickens came home to roost". Stop doing stupid chit and you won't have to deal with stupid chit.

Murderer? Let's talk evidence. EDTA? Phil Vanatter driving around with his viles of blood. The missing cc's. OJ showing no signs of being hut by Goldman. Alright. your turn.
That’s what white people told O.J. and told the world. “He’s not black he’s O.J.” That statement didn’t originate from O.J. That statement emanated from white people at that time. They would be willing to give their white daughter to O.J. Now maybe you understand the feeling of betrayal on the part of whites regarding O.J. For many whites…OJ was their first black friend. LoL.
The killer told his ex-wife he would kill her and get away with it because he is OJ Simpson!! That conversation was found in Nicole's diary!! Nicole also told Cris Jenner that OJ had said he would kill her.
I watched the whole thing live from LAX listening to the news, saw the smoke and flames, saw the air traffic get diverted over the ocean for landing- I will never forget that day.
I get tired of people blaming the prosecution. They had O.J.'s DNA at the crime scene from his blood. They had blood from his car and footprints in his shoe size at the crime scene. That jury was biased or stupid. Also not all Black people were jumping around and celebrating the acquittal.
Explain what you mean by "they had" OJ's blood at the scene? You mean the blood that was planted by Mark Furhman? Attorney Barry Schleck dismantled the criminalises who gathered the blood and who mishandled the blood evidently grossly. He presented evidence showing blood was not present on a portion of the fence at the crime scene then days droplets of blood was present. Remember? Detective Vannatter took a blanket from the home of and placed it over the bodies of Ron and Nicole further compromising evidence. He also took evidence home that night instead of taking it to the lab per protocol. Between Scheks impeccable dismantling of the criminalists, Furhman pleading the 5th after being caught on the stand lying about using the N-word, enough doubt was raised for acquittal. Law doesn't operate on feelings. It operates (well it should) on the rules of the court and evidence.
Jason: "I watched 75-80% of the OJ Trial with my own eyes"... So did the rest of America !! I remember that trial as if it were yesterday. Everyday for the duration of the trial, the daily proceedings were replayed on network TV at night and over 50% of the nation watched it - especially when there was important testimony. Also, the day of the verdict EVERY major TV AND radio network carried it live. The whole damn country paused that day to hear the verdict. Me, like many others, remember where I was on the day of the OJ Simpson verdict.
Idk about that. You ever watch Gayle Sayers? That guy was ELECTRIC. Not as strong as Jim Brown, but more agile and faster than Jim Brown was. Walter Payton was awesome, but he wasnt any better than Gayle Sayers. Pound for pound I think I can make an argument Sayers was the best of all time.
Any American with an ounce of integrity can listen to Judge Joe Brown go over the details of the case and know what the deal is about this case. It was a professional hit job.
I was in 8th grade social studies when he was acquitted. We all watched in class on T.V. I still remember my teachers mouth dropping when the verdict was read. Wild.
OJ 's legacy is not at all complicated. OJ was in a once in a lifetime position and had a golden opportunity to make a landscape impact in the Black community as soon as he left USC. However, his true nature as a human being and wrotten heart and soul prevented all of that. RIP to the victims.
For reference I have been a criminal defense attorney for over 30 years AND OJ was one of my 5 biggest sports heroes growing up an hour from Buffalo and I will say this: despite the problems with the criminal case the evidence against OJ was overwhelming (both forensic and circumstantial) and the jury did a great disservice when they acquitted OJ. For me, it would have been an easy guilty vote if I was on the jury and I am 100% sure he killed 2 innocent people.
I have to mention, HOW SOME BLACK MEN FEEL IT'S STILL WORTH THE HIGH RISK, OF DATING WHITE WOMEN. I'm a Native American and Black Woman. It's still AMAZING, MANY YEARS LATER.
Mark Fuhrman handed the defense the case. Case closed. Literally purjured himself on the stand. You can argue the false statements he made were irrelevant. But why lie then?
Nonsense, the DA picked the jury thinking the black women would nail him for marrying a white woman and the reverse happened , they weren’t going to find him guilty no matter what
The woman came forth and said that Furman said the word as dialogue for a fiction book they were working on. But yes, it was the perfect setup and he should have said that he used that word as he must have at some point. But once the trap was sprung, the case sank.
Fuhrman sued the LAPD because in his lawsuit, he blamed the LAPD for causing him to harbor resentment against black people, which he NEVER had before. He asked them to take him off the beat in black neighborhoods because it was causing him to think negatively about them and he hated that feeling. It caused him to have depression. If you can't understand that Fuhrman was not someone that hated anyone, he was burned out and in his defense, working that job in that part of town getting the WORST of it day in and day out would be worse than PTSD in a soldier, going to war every single day. Cochran used that weakness in him to create a false narrative about the man and WORSE is that they used that to pretend the police set up OJ and that is a bold faced lie.
I followed the case and listened to the final arguments in the case. Marsha Clark and Chris Darden had the absolute worst final arguments I have ever heard in over 40 years of listening to jury arguments. They were totally flat, uncaring, unconvincing and pathetic. It's no wonder they lost, despite the facts.
You are 100% correct. The jury did exactly what they were supposed to do. Marsha Clark was either paid off or Star struck. She was the worst prosecutor ever. If the jury came back with a guilty verdict that would mean our court system failed. Also DNA was not really a thing back then.
America hasn't been the Same since the hart &seller Immigration Act, of 1965 which was done by jews to use immigration as a weapon against the American people And what we see today is Is the result of this bill that Must be repealed and abolished
Agreed. Love Jesse Owens sticking it to Adolph Hitler, but Jackie Robinson integrating baseball was a much bigger story than a track and field event that really only matters every four years. Love Muhammad Ali, and he should be on the list, but there were black boxing champions before him. NOBODY played MLB, THE BIGGEST sport at the time by FAR, as a black man before Jackie.
Whitlock claims to be 90 percent sure OJ did it. He can't possibly believe that OJ has a 10 percent chance of being the unluckiest celebrity/athlete of all-time. Nobody on earth actually runs through their head what it would actually mean if OJ did not in fact, do it. I mean, that would be the greatest story of all time, and yet nobody has entertained the thought. So, he has to be in the 99.9999 percent sure guilty zone. Essentially 100 percent.
Simpson, with friend Al Cowlings, led police on a chase in a white Bronco through Southern California five days after the killings. An estimated 95 million Americans watched the chase on television though Los Angeles that lasted for two hours
I remember OJ as the iconic football player. His TV work and his monster problems with criminality are judged differently dependent on people's opinion, but there is no doubt about his football.
He was always my favorite athlete as a kid. And I'll miss him as he was then. What a tragedy of a turning point in his life. It always only takes one choice to make a difference in a life. Depends on which side you stood on then....
You Tuber Legal Vices has about 60 videos on the trial. He breaks down each witness and cross examination plus opening and ending statements. He created a separate OJ Simpson playlist
OJ was one of the most successful athletes of the 1960s & 1970s. He joined Jim Brown and Fred Williams as the most popular former athletes turned actors of that era. Then it all went downhill in the mid-1990s when he had the entire world glued to their television sets, watching as he led a high-speed chase against the LAPD over the double murder of his former wife Nichole and her lover. His woke acquittal will live in infamy unfortunately!
I believe OJ was found not guilty per the law and a jury of his peers, and I respect that. Why did you have to add Caitlyn Clark, though? That’s male athletes in your list, except for her, then you gave your guest hell for mentioning her. 🤔🤔Anyway, no one can take away the fact that OJ Simpson is the best running back of all time. They can’t erase his plays, or his winning the Heisman. The Juice is now Loose, no more cancer pain, no more pain from rheumatoid arthritis, and no more judging him. Prayers for his family, they are victims too, and losing a parent is never easy. ♥️♥️🏈♥️♥️🌹 I watched 100 percent of the trial, and yes, it was CNN; as a journalist, if you watched all the trial, how could you not remember it was CNN? It was Jim Morena (spelling) and Greta Van Susteren. Wrong about Kardashian; at the time he said he so nervous about the verdict he thought he was going to pass out.
I've read probably a dozen books on this case, and also, like Jason, watched probably seventy five percent of it live. The two books that I'd HIGHLY recommend to read on it are - number ONE, Outrage, by Vincent Bugliosi, and Evidence Dismissed, by Tom Lange and Phil Vannatter. The fact that Marcia Clark, and to a lesser extent Christopher Darden, totally BOTCHED and BLEW one of the most winnable cases in American legal history due to their own ineptness but ALSO, ALSO, their own decisions to NOT BRING all the evidence they had, some of it SLAM DUNK evidence, to trial can not be emphasized or underscored enough. I swear, I'm typing this thirty years after the murders and twenty nine years after the sham of an acquittal, and I STILL can't believe these two lawyers screwed this up when it was a very easily winnable case. It just simply can NOT be underscored enough. EVEN WITH the fairly recently uncovered admittance of at least two jurors saying, publicly, that regardless of any evidence, they'd have voted not guilty for "pay back" for Rodney King, it's inexcusable for the prosecution in this case to have let, among many things (not including their decision to leave MANY things out of the trial that on their own would have convicted him - outside of the jury nullification I mentioned a second ago) but letting Barry Scheck, during closing arguments LIE, as in blatantly LIE, as in LIE as in BLATANTLY TELL UNTRUTHS, about DNA evidence and its chances and possibility of being destroyed and / or contaminated, because he KNEW it was such new science, that chances were - and it turned out to be true - the un savvy and unsophisticated jury (and sadly, which turned out to be true, the prosecution lawyers as well) would be LOST get away with it - with NO REBUTTAL at all, is unforgivable. The loss of this case and the reason a double murderer walked free and boldly smirked on the way out of the courtroom that day is solely at the feet, at least indirectly, of Gil Garcetti, and he knows it.
Yes Marcia Clark did a terrible job. However, the jury that was chosen was voting not guilty from day one. This wasn't about OJ, it was retribution for Rodney King.
Ron and Nicole were cokeheadz who got in over their heads with big time drugdealers. Hence the Colombian neckties. Do some research about he Mezzaluna restaurant where Ron worked
Only two jurors went public after the fact and admitted their bias. It's not a stretch to assume that there were others who were of the same mindset, but would never admit such. Yes, the prosecution dropped the ball a few times, but let's be real here.....the biggest mistake was for that trial to take place in LA.

Hey Whitlock, if you're only 90% sure, search for that the "lost" Fox interview where he "hypothetically" confesses to all of it and walks the interviewer through how it went down step by step... it'll erase that remaining 10% I saw the same doc about his son and found it very compelling...

O.J. Simpson will forever be remembered for a trial let’s just keep it real and let’s just keep it real that people because he was black will always say that he was innocent and use the acquittal as the go to excuse when we all know damn good and well that dude murdered his wife and her friend.
No, OJ Simpson will always be remembered as an absolute dominant professional football player - who was acquitted of a double murder. Not taking any side on whether he was innocent or guilty. Furthermore, what does the color of his skin have to do with whether or not certain people think that he was either innocent or guilty ?? Answer that !!
I have two questions: Do you think that OJ Simpson's trial caused wokeness by racializing the trial and facts by using historical pasts to escape responsible? Dr.Turley did a video on it. Also do think that the culture in the black community are the reason why certain stereotypes exist?
Jason, you are right about the inept prosecution and the incompetent Marcia Clark. Court TV, and Greta van Susteren continually praised Clark as a brilliant prosecutor. Joke. Everybody involved in the case was pathetic The judge, the prosecutors, the police, even the defense--all made a mockery of our justice system.
I loved OJ. My brother and I were at our elderly relatives house when he broke the record with his 2,000 yard season. I saw the Naked Gun movies he was in. I even defended him after the verdict. I think his failures were of hubris and ego. He clearly believed his press clippings. He was not humble which may have contributed to his downfall. When I think of how he could have had a great life continue if only accepted Nicole Brown Simpson’s decision to divorce it makes me sad. If only he walked away from Nicole both Ron and Nicole would have lived and OJ’s dream life trajectory would have remained unabated. RIP to Ron and Nicole and OJ.

Robert Shapiro was asked after the verdict....'was the race card played?
Not only was it played, it was dealt from the bottom of the deck.'
Those jurors are basically 12 refs who missed a call that happened smack dab right in front of them.
I get tired of people blaming the prosecution. They had O.J.'s DNA at the crime scene from his blood. They had blood from his car and footprints in his shoe size at the crime scene. That jury was biased or stupid. Also not all Black people were jumping around and celebrating the acquittal.
That’s how yt people act on social media: when a yt person especially a cop is found not guilty; y’all cheer on social media !
You’re exactly right . The case was lost when they held the trial in LA . People believe what they want.

@@bobbiewright1500nice try at projection 🤡
Explain what you mean by "they had" OJ's blood at the scene? You mean the blood that was planted by Mark Furhman? Attorney Barry Schleck dismantled the criminalises who gathered the blood and who mishandled the blood evidently grossly. He presented evidence showing blood was not present on a portion of the fence at the crime scene then days droplets of blood was present. Remember?
Detective Vannatter took a blanket from the home of and placed it over the bodies of Ron and Nicole further compromising evidence. He also took evidence home that night instead of taking it to the lab per protocol.
Between Scheks impeccable dismantling of the criminalists, Furhman pleading the 5th after being caught on the stand lying about using the N-word, enough doubt was raised for acquittal.
Law doesn't operate on feelings. It operates (well it should) on the rules of the court and evidence.

Jason: "I watched 75-80% of the OJ Trial with my own eyes"... So did the rest of America !! I remember that trial as if it were yesterday. Everyday for the duration of the trial, the daily proceedings were replayed on network TV at night and over 50% of the nation watched it - especially when there was important testimony. Also, the day of the verdict EVERY major TV AND radio network carried it live. The whole damn country paused that day to hear the verdict. Me, like many others, remember where I was on the day of the OJ Simpson verdict.

OJ 's legacy is not at all complicated.
OJ was in a once in a lifetime position and had a golden opportunity to make a landscape impact in the Black community as soon as he left USC. However, his true nature as a human being and wrotten heart and soul prevented all of that. RIP to the victims.
Thank you for apologizing to me for not including Payton
For reference I have been a criminal defense attorney for over 30 years AND OJ was one of my 5 biggest sports heroes growing up an hour from Buffalo and I will say this: despite the problems with the criminal case the evidence against OJ was overwhelming (both forensic and circumstantial) and the jury did a great disservice when they acquitted OJ. For me, it would have been an easy guilty vote if I was on the jury and I am 100% sure he killed 2 innocent people.
The actions of LA County acquitted Mr. Simpson in more ways than one.
All that evidence and they screwed it up
I have to mention, HOW SOME BLACK MEN FEEL IT'S STILL WORTH THE HIGH RISK, OF DATING WHITE WOMEN. I'm a Native American and Black Woman. It's still AMAZING, MANY YEARS LATER.
Mark Fuhrman handed the defense the case. Case closed. Literally purjured himself on the stand. You can argue the false statements he made were irrelevant. But why lie then?
Nonsense, the DA picked the jury thinking the black women would nail him for marrying a white woman and the reverse happened , they weren’t going to find him guilty no matter what
Nothing was going to change the not guilty verdict .
The woman came forth and said that Furman said the word as dialogue for a fiction book they were working on. But yes, it was the perfect setup and he should have said that he used that word as he must have at some point.
But once the trap was sprung, the case sank.
Yea its wasn't the lack of evidence
Fuhrman sued the LAPD because in his lawsuit, he blamed the LAPD for causing him to harbor resentment against black people, which he NEVER had before. He asked them to take him off the beat in black neighborhoods because it was causing him to think negatively about them and he hated that feeling. It caused him to have depression. If you can't understand that Fuhrman was not someone that hated anyone, he was burned out and in his defense, working that job in that part of town getting the WORST of it day in and day out would be worse than PTSD in a soldier, going to war every single day. Cochran used that weakness in him to create a false narrative about the man and WORSE is that they used that to pretend the police set up OJ and that is a bold faced lie.

So true about Rodney king affecting this verdict
I followed the case and listened to the final arguments in the case. Marsha Clark and Chris Darden had the absolute worst final arguments I have ever heard in over 40 years of listening to jury arguments. They were totally flat, uncaring, unconvincing and pathetic. It's no wonder they lost, despite the facts.
You are 100% correct. The jury did exactly what they were supposed to do. Marsha Clark was either paid off or Star struck. She was the worst prosecutor ever. If the jury came back with a guilty verdict that would mean our court system failed. Also DNA was not really a thing back then.
Despite the two dead bodies left behind, the biggest and worst influence from OJ was introducing the name Kardashian to America.
America has never been the same since this and the LA riots

How is Jackie Robinson not on any list of most influential athletes?
Agreed. Love Jesse Owens sticking it to Adolph Hitler, but Jackie Robinson integrating baseball was a much bigger story than a track and field event that really only matters every four years.
Love Muhammad Ali, and he should be on the list, but there were black boxing champions before him. NOBODY played MLB, THE BIGGEST sport at the time by FAR, as a black man before Jackie.
Whitlock claims to be 90 percent sure OJ did it. He can't possibly believe that OJ has a 10 percent chance of being the unluckiest celebrity/athlete of all-time. Nobody on earth actually runs through their head what it would actually mean if OJ did not in fact, do it. I mean, that would be the greatest story of all time, and yet nobody has entertained the thought. So, he has to be in the 99.9999 percent sure guilty zone. Essentially 100 percent.
Oj could have won with a public defender with that jury
Amen.

Man F the Houston rockets Kim. I’m a Knicks fan.

OJ was one of the most successful athletes of the 1960s & 1970s. He joined Jim Brown and Fred Williams as the most popular former athletes turned actors of that era. Then it all went downhill in the mid-1990s when he had the entire world glued to their television sets, watching as he led a high-speed chase against the LAPD over the double murder of his former wife Nichole and her lover. His woke acquittal will live in infamy unfortunately!

That’s male athletes in your list, except for her, then you gave your guest hell for mentioning her. 🤔🤔Anyway, no one can take away the fact that OJ Simpson is the best running back of all time. They can’t erase his plays, or his winning the Heisman. The Juice is now Loose, no more cancer pain, no more pain from rheumatoid arthritis, and no more judging him. Prayers for his family, they are victims too, and losing a parent is never easy. ♥️♥️🏈♥️♥️🌹
I watched 100 percent of the trial, and yes, it was CNN; as a journalist, if you watched all the trial, how could you not remember it was CNN? It was Jim Morena (spelling) and Greta Van Susteren. Wrong about Kardashian; at the time he said he so nervous about the verdict he thought he was going to pass out.
I've read probably a dozen books on this case, and also, like Jason, watched probably seventy five percent of it live. The two books that I'd HIGHLY recommend to read on it are - number ONE, Outrage, by Vincent Bugliosi, and Evidence Dismissed, by Tom Lange and Phil Vannatter. The fact that Marcia Clark, and to a lesser extent Christopher Darden, totally BOTCHED and BLEW one of the most winnable cases in American legal history due to their own ineptness but ALSO, ALSO, their own decisions to NOT BRING all the evidence they had, some of it SLAM DUNK evidence, to trial can not be emphasized or underscored enough. I swear, I'm typing this thirty years after the murders and twenty nine years after the sham of an acquittal, and I STILL can't believe these two lawyers screwed this up when it was a very easily winnable case. It just simply can NOT be underscored enough. EVEN WITH the fairly recently uncovered admittance of at least two jurors saying, publicly, that regardless of any evidence, they'd have voted not guilty for "pay back" for Rodney King, it's inexcusable for the prosecution in this case to have let, among many things (not including their decision to leave MANY things out of the trial that on their own would have convicted him - outside of the jury nullification I mentioned a second ago) but letting Barry Scheck, during closing arguments LIE, as in blatantly LIE, as in LIE as in BLATANTLY TELL UNTRUTHS, about DNA evidence and its chances and possibility of being destroyed and / or contaminated, because he KNEW it was such new science, that chances were - and it turned out to be true - the un savvy and unsophisticated jury (and sadly, which turned out to be true, the prosecution lawyers as well) would be LOST get away with it - with NO REBUTTAL at all, is unforgivable. The loss of this case and the reason a double murderer walked free and boldly smirked on the way out of the courtroom that day is solely at the feet, at least indirectly, of Gil Garcetti, and he knows it.
Yes Marcia Clark did a terrible job. However, the jury that was chosen was voting not guilty from day one. This wasn't about OJ, it was retribution for Rodney King.
What about the book, "If I did It: Confessions of a Killer"" by Orenthal James Simpson?
Ron and Nicole were cokeheadz who got in over their heads with big time drugdealers. Hence the Colombian neckties. Do some research about he Mezzaluna restaurant where Ron worked
Bs. They could have had video tape of him committing the murder and the negros on the jury would have never convicted him. Save your bs
Only two jurors went public after the fact and admitted their bias. It's not a stretch to assume that there were others who were of the same mindset, but would never admit such. Yes, the prosecution dropped the ball a few times, but let's be real here.....the biggest mistake was for that trial to take place in LA.

@mbp7060 Sometimes Genetics are the causes of cancer. I read an article about it years ago. You can prevent that with cancer checkups. I get prostate exams and a PSA test twice a year.

No, OJ Simpson will always be remembered as an absolute dominant professional football player - who was acquitted of a double murder. Not taking any side on whether he was innocent or guilty.

I have two questions: Do you think that OJ Simpson's trial caused wokeness by racializing the trial and facts by using historical pasts to escape responsible? Dr.Turley did a video on it.

Jason, you are right about the inept prosecution and the incompetent Marcia Clark. Court TV, and Greta van Susteren continually praised Clark as a brilliant prosecutor. Joke. Everybody involved in the case was pathetic The judge, the prosecutors, the police, even the defense--all made a mockery of our justice system.
I loved OJ. My brother and I were at our elderly relatives house when he broke the record with his 2,000 yard season. I saw the Naked Gun movies he was in. I even defended him after the verdict. I think his failures were of hubris and ego. He clearly believed his press clippings. He was not humble which may have contributed to his downfall. When I think of how he could have had a great life continue if only accepted Nicole Brown Simpson’s decision to divorce it makes me sad. If only he walked away from Nicole both Ron and Nicole would have lived and OJ’s dream life trajectory would have remained unabated. RIP to Ron and Nicole and OJ.
