Were you wearing your pointed white sheet when you posted that comment?

He was a lousy husband and a great lawyer. The two aren't mutually exclusive. I respect him as a lawyer. I think he was a jerk as a husband (at least to his first wife).

Better than now? Are you f*cking kidding me? What planet are/were you living on?

The comments are about 95% negative. Everybody hates the way this season is going. What bugs me about this site is that all the moderators say is "thank you for your positive feedback" to the positive comments but they don't say anything about the negative ones. I'd like to know that the mods are taking these

Not to mention that there was a rumor going all around the black communities all over the country that Clark and Christopher Darden were having an affair during the trial. I don't know how that got started, but people were saying it was a dumb move on her part when she was in the middle of an ugly divorce and her

Given the condiitions under which millions of black people had to live in the 1960s, it's not altogether surprising that they were "not always accepting of whites."

I don't know if it's going to come out in this series, but Clark was under enormous personal stress during the trial. She was in the middle of a very nasty divorce and she and her soon-to-be-ex were having a bitter custody fight over their only child.

The book is excellent. Toobin pulled no punches. I recommend it highly.

I watched the news the day they showed OJ trying on that glove and I'll never forget the look on Cochran's face. I thought he was going to break out into a dance step. He looked like Christmas had come early. I remember thinking, hot damn, there goes the trial. What in holy hell was Darden thinking, and as chief

One Sunday during the trial Darden went to his church (a black Baptist church in LA) and the minute he walked in the door he was loudly booed by the whole congregation. Can you imagine getting booed in your own church?

Of course it isn't, did I say it was? But Nicole was no paragon of virtue, any more than OJ was innocent.

Were there any police records about OJ beating up his first wife? I don't recall that ever being mentioned. He and Nicole had a sick relationship, if Resnick is to be believed, and they obviously brought out the worst in each other.

Did you actually read Furhman's statement? Ito wouldn't let the jury hear most of it, he said it was too inflammatory, but the press printed a large part of it. It was all about Furhman bragging about how he loved torturing black suspects in the interrogation room. You need a strong stomach to read it.

Why not? Like Cochran, Lee was doing his job. The LAPD were incompetent in how they handled the blood and Lee just told it like it was. If you're going to get mad at anyone, get mad at the LAPD and the prosecution team. They totally fucked this case up.

Do you remember those OJ Hertz commercials on TV? One day OJ was meeting with the ad agency in NYC. According to someone who was there, OJ walked into the meeting and all those ad executives completely lost their shit. You would have thought it was the Second Coming of Elvis. The source said he had never seen

That wasn't the reason OJ wasn't tried in Santa Monica, where he should have been based on his residence and the location of the crime. Garcetti couldn't risk another Rodney King situation. You remember that case where 4 LAPD cops were caught on tape beating the hell out of an unarmed black man. Some idiot judge

I agree; that's the main reason I think he's miscast. He's giving the wrong interpretation. (Plus he doesn't look much like OJ.)

No. Gooding is miscast IMO.

No, I read the book and Toobin thought Darden really blew the whole trial with that glove fiasco.
