I don't think the guy is totally innocent, but then again, I don't think the prosecutors should have gone to trial without good evidence.

How are you not "totally innocent" in a trial like that? Do you think he "kind of" murdered Ron Goldman and nearly cut his wife's head off? When that piece of shit was arrested he had a gun on him, thousands of dollars in cash, fake beards and mustaches, and a passport. Boy, that sure doesn't make him look guilty or anything. Too bad that was never put into evidence though..and neither was his note that he wrote before fleeing in the Bronco.
The OJ Simpson trial was lost because Christopher Darden and Marcia Clark did a crappy job of prosecuting. They left out key evidence, left out taped statements made by Simpson which were extremely incriminating, and they did a bad job of studying juror statistics during the selection process. The evidence that they did have was pretty damn strong......but I don't think the utilized it at all.
You should read Vincent Bugliosi's book on the case.......its a good one.
