      The funny thing is, tons of people would have absolutely no idea who he is - he wasn't nearly as famous as OJ then, or now - even with the notoriety the case (and "the chase") managed to achieve. I truly think it takes qualifies for being called of the trial of the century, for the 20th century. I was a kid when it was happening, and _everybody_ knew about/was talking about it (in the US anyway). I was supposed to make a little journal in grade school by my teacher and literally have my journal entry from the day of the verdict, writing about it, lol.

There were already people on the streets of LA watching it, if they heard or saw cops roughing him up or doing anything even if was justified, there would have INSTANTLY been riots. Businesses were boarded up and closed on the day of trials verdict because people feared riots. Even Clinton was given a security briefing on nationwide riots that could happen. You think America is divided now? OHHHH BOY... look at pictures and videos of the verdict, you see every black person celebrating and every white person looking in disbelief.
      And in a way, yeah, the cops did make it about race since they fucked up evidence so much and since Mark Fuhrman actually was a racist, that also made the jury far more sympathetic and doubtful.

    I was about nine years old when this happened and I still have a very vivid memory of laying on the bed at night with my mom and her longtime boyfriend, watching this happen on TV in their bedroom, I still miss those days slang between them and watching TV.. It felt like it took forever, but it was not very long, less than hour, it was the hold out at the end that took a long time and you couldn’t see anything because they turned the lights off, combined with the quality of a crt tv it got very boring at the end. I think I fell asleep..
    I just remember asking “who is OJ Simpson?” And my moms boyfriend said he was a very famous former football player who turned into an actor, but as a kid in the 90’s, I had no clue who the guy was until he went to court and became infamous.
    I also remember listening to the police call to OJ and thinking as a 9 year old with no prior biases to him “this guy really did it. Everything he says and sounds like is super guilty” and I couldn’t believe there was even a trial and he was found not guilty

    • @alexroselle
      @alexroselle 4 месяца назад +218

      I found it pretty baffling even then as a teenager watching it all on TV. But I think in context it can be understood a little better. OJ’s arrest and trial happened just 2-3 years after the Rodney King beating and LA riots. There was a lot of hatred and mistrust of the LAPD and the criminal justice system in the Black community and elsewhere, and that was very actively harnessed by OJ’s legal team and his sympathizers in the media and public. Which is extra ironic, even cynical, given how little OJ wanted to be associated with Black culture or politics during his career. Also, there was much less understanding of both DNA forensics and intimate partner violence’s connection to homicide then vs now.

    Something really disgusting that not a lot of people know about is how the jury acted. It was admitted years and years later by jury members that they full on knew OJ was guilty but they refused to convict him because of the Rodney King situation not too long before everything went down. And the way one of the jurors talked about it in an interview is just sickening. Smug smile, talks about letting a m u r d e r e r go like it was the right thing to do and that they did the right thing. No. You can protest for Rodney King in other ways that are impactful and will lead to change WITHOUT LETTING HIM LOOSE! And the thing that's even more damning is how for a while prior to the deaths; there were lots of calls to the local police about OJ hurting Nicole. And the cops at the time were so "buddy-buddy" with him that it was brushed off once he came outside and gave his story of events. And then when everything happened... If you've seen the crime scene photos... You'll know that... it was... unbelievably vi*lent... and so... so horrific... You can literally see it step by step as it unfolded because of the splatter on the walls and floor and how it was dragged across the place. Horrific. Horrifying. And neither of them deserved it.

    10:03 My favorite part. “Who is this again?” “This is AC….you know who I am G dammit!!” Dispatcher: ok hold on one second (puts call on hold) Female Dispatcher: “Hi! What’s your name? 🤣
    A.C. “oh F this” (click)
    useless dispatchers are the only two people in America completely clueless about what is happening at that moment. it reminds me of the scene in “ home alone” where the mother calls from Paris hysterical saying she left her son at home.. and the clueless dispatcher transfer us the call to a woman in the room next door, “we’ve got a caller on line 2 seems kind of angry” they keep transferring the call back and forth

    I live really close to I-5 (although more north), that's genuinely so scary that a major piece of history happened right on that road.
