Chasing a Bronco, by chance?On duty
Almost the exact same situation, but at the Nolan Catholic HS cafeteria.When OJ was found innocent? I was in the high school cafeteria. I remember the school erupting. It was the first time I actually noticed a racial divide. Most of the school (The Woodlands) was booing, but about 12 of our black students were cheering. No violence came of it, but it definitely stuck in my head. Only other thing I can remember in such a way is 9/11. So where were you?
I remember The Chase from the year before much more than the actual verdict. I remember exactly where I was for The Chase (and the NBA Finals).
As for the actual verdict, I was working at Joe T Garcia's in October of 1995, and was knee deep in hot chicks so wasn't too in tune with current events.
OT....anyone around here have a time machine? Can I go back to 1995? Anyone? Help! Please!
Chasing a Bronco, by chance?
Seriously?Jury Duty in California. Some ex football player was accused of some stuff. Might have been in the news. Moved shortly after. Just did not feel safe because of lousy justice system there.

Insufficient prosecution vs star lawyers?

In all honesty? I don't think him murdering her on video would have swayed some of the jurors. Johnnie Cochran knew blacks would be great for them on the jury. Marcia Clark wrongly thought women, even if black, would be appalled at OJs conduct, so she was pleased with getting the black women on the jury. Case closed.For the lawyer types - why?
