    What a G move posting this today

    Even Kim kardashians dads facial reaction when they announced the verdict says it all
  • @StyxDescension
    All this evidence and he managed to get away with it for his entire life. Just remember that the law is not on your side unless you're rich and famous.
  • I remember this trial was the talk of the country when I was a kid. If it weren't for Johnny Cochran, he would've gotten the life sentence. "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit."
  • @ChandlerBinge
    It amazes me that even though he was found not guilty, it didn't change that fact that 2 people were murdered, so if not OJ then who? Is the killer still out there? Was there only ever one suspect?
  • @JE4-1
    How this man was found not guilty is mind blowing . 😱

    Molecular biologist here. There are some mistakes in your script regarding some of the testing performed. First, PCR replicates small fragments of DNA, not whole cells. More importantly, red blood cells do not contain DNA, as they are highly specialized to integrate hemoglobin, our body's biggest single protein (though it is comprised of multiple subunits itself). The DNA would have come from other cells in the blood that have nuclear DNA, such as white blood cells. The samples wouldn't be as rich with DNA as some might think. Samples out in the open will always be contaminated, but PCR is specific to the target sample, thus other sequences will be drowned out during PCR cycles while many target sequences (OJ's DNA, should it be there) remain. If every sample yields consistent data, its surely a open and shut case. If only the technicians showed more care in their aseptic technique, the evidence would be solid, but improper aseptic technique is definitely grounds to disqualify the results as accurate, but youd have to see the entire operation to conclude where the contamination came from and how it might have happened.

    Supposedly the coffin fits like a glove

    You can always tell a person by their eyes. An in the eyes of O.J Simpson is a cold blooded killer and a man with no remorse.

    @ 6:51 - The detective is so close on this… In the “If I Did It” book. OJ says he stopped there, looked back & saw his bloody foot prints. That’s when he stripped down & put his bloody clothes, shoes, knife in a bundle. He also mentions having to reopen to the bloody bundle of clothes to get his keys & wallet.
  • Contamination of the blood, of the kind claimed by the defense, would only result in the DNA not matching. It would not produce a match to a suspect.
  • @JennWatson
    Wouldn't it be grand if OJ wrote a confession in his will?!

    Most stupid defence to ever win a murder trial. Everyone knows leather shrinks when wet. The Prosecutor should have had him try on the same size gloves, then soaked them in blood and dried. Then let us see the comparison.
  • O.J was guilty by default , but the race card influenced the final verdict.
  • It bugs me that a lawyer is fine with bullshit as long as they win. There should be a difference between making sure the defendant is fairly represented and slinging mud to try to hide the defendant’s guilt.

    Thank you for this video. Because I really didn’t know much about this considering the fact that I was born in 2004.
