People forget now, but there was a lot of controversy over the OJ Simpson case

To many of us, nearly 30 years after the trial, it seems pretty clear the man was guilty, and got away with murder because he had expensive attorneys. But at the time, with the Rodney King beating fresh in everyone's minds and the police looking like they could literally get away with murder, there was a lot of mistrust of law enforcement among the black community. Even a case with overwhelming circumstantial evidence like the OJ case raised doubts in the minds of people who felt abandoned by the people whose job it is to protect the public.

What side did you take in the OJ case? I think y'all can guess what I think, but I'm interested in your opinions.

I think the police and prosecution bungled it outright. Police detectives walking around with vials of blood ,losing chain of custody and the prosecution asking Simpson to don the gloves🤚🏿

Despite assumptions and suspicion,legally there probably was reasonable doubt.

I think he did it but you have to prove that in a court room
