Would it help the justice system in the next OJ trial if.......?

Question

blacks were excluded from the jury considering what happened in the first OJ criminal trial?

Answer 1

That would help but we know that will not happen, but there is a judge just waiting for OJ to come up before him , don't ya kn.? I can't wait until it happens , maybe finally some justice for Nicole and Ron! Man, the justice system cannot wait on this one --it will be entirely different.

Answer 2

Absolutely NOT. There are plenty of fair-minded people of all races.

The criminal trial flopped not because of the jury, but because the prosecution was unable to meet the burden of proof, and that happened largely because the LAPD left itself open to too many attacks on their procedure. (Mark Furhman sure didn't help). Remember that OJ lost the civil case.

What will help this burglary case is if the police are careful to dot their i's and cross their t's this time.

Answer 3

i believe OJ was guilty the first time, but the DA's office and the cops out there screw it up so bad that they made opening for the defense council. but it was CA, so if they can't get you the first time they run you through the courts again. (also remember Robert Blake). no, i don't think race of the jury is the problem, the problem is thinking people think of ways to get out of jury duty, and you are left with a lot of uneducated people who have nothing better to do and feel if they let him off, karma may return the favor on them.

Answer 4

I think the problem is more about the fact that he's a celebrity.

Same thing happened with Michael Jackson & Robert Blake. The creeps got off.

Answer 5

This trial will be different. O.J.'s first lawyer got all his money, so he'll probably have a public defender. Hopefully, the prosecution won't try to enter his gloves into evidence.

Answer 6

doesn't matter it's against the law to remove a person on the basis of race

Answer 7

Good point.
