On the documentary his agent and one of his friends both say they think he did it. There is one bit where his agent I think said, what really happened. And OJ says I went round to see what was going on, if she didn't answer the door with a knife she wouldn't have been killed. I can't believe there hasn't been a retrial. Why not?ArizonaRed wrote:Personally I never thought OJ was going to be convicted, I assumed it would be a hung jury because there was always going to be at least one juror that was willing to believe that the LAPD would plant the evidence to convict a black man. Not all black Americans bought into OJ's story, my stepfather for one and many of the blacks I associate with where adamant that he was as guilty as hell. However I also knew many people, blacks and whites, who thought that a not guilty verdict was a way of getting back at the LAPD. It doesn't make too much sense but sometime emotions totally overrule common sense.
Yeah he did mate.ArizonaRed wrote:Double jeopardy prevent a retrial. The Goldman's did get a guilty verdict in the wrongful death suit in civil court.
I think it Robert Shapiero that was quoted as saying they not only played the race card they played it from the bottom of the deck.

I don't see how if new evidence becomes avaliable then you can't re-trial someone
I thought the bbc one was fantastic, it's called the people vs oj SimpsonMartin wrote:Carrick 5 Gerrard 0 wrote:Is this doc similar to the OJ Simpson trial that was shown on bbc? That was a great series.

Was the BBC one where they tried to show that it wasn't as straightforward as OJ being guilty and that evidence was planted? I briefly saw one I think it was the BBC but I turned it off after about two minutes.
This one is immense, it is extremely detailed and hard hitting, loads of information and is put together very well, just look at the reviews for it online. It is nominated for a load of awards.
http://m.imdb.com/title/tt5275892/ - 9.1/10 from 2,000+ ratings ffs.
Would strongly recommend. If anyone wants a link to watch which works on mobile too, I can send you a pm.
I'll get it, I checked and it's not the one I saw.Carrick 5 Gerrard 0 wrote:I thought the bbc one was fantastic, it's called the people vs oj Simpson
They basically acted it out and from that, you could see which parts the prosecution lost out the trial.
I think the one you are referring to is more of a documentary with interviews but this one took out the narration and played it as a story which for someone like me who didnt know the full story, it was interesting and easy to follow, it got 8.5 on IMDb so I would really reccomend if you give it another chance, one of the best shows I had seen in a long time.
I will watch this one too.
