It is fascinating that after three decades it is still hard to have a reasonable discussion about this case. FWIW, my view is he probably did kill his wife. I just hate how the criminal jury has been maligned over the years as either too stupid to understand the DNA evidence, or to biased to convict a black man of murder (a ridiculous claim given how many black men get convicted of murder in Los Angeles). The fact is that jury knew something about LAPD behavior that made the Simpson defense more plausible than it seemed to many white people who only casually watched the trial.
