mjmitch3333 you may need to watch the trial over and not believe the press or the prosecutors. Ito had control over that trial and both sides were sanctioned for their conduct. Marcia and Darden make it sound like only the defense acted inappropriately.
As a survivor of DV for over 10 years I never told anyone, called cops, didn’t tell my family friends no one. I literally have a vivid memory of the first time I was ever hit. I would never tolerate that BS again. The hardest time is when you’re leaving.

Nope, they were not their for pictures. That wasn’t the purpose. They were to see the floor plan of the house. So Laura was the floor plan of the house changed ? No.
That was why they began accusing the police of messing with the evidence etc Because that was THEIR shit. They were just projecting their own filth onto the police.
"If we had had Latin jury, we woulda had a picture of him in sombrero! There woulda been a mariachi band out front" LMAO Carl Douglas one of the best parts of the documentary
Joshua Alley 😂LOL!😂 (I haven't seen the documentary, just this interview. And before anyone feels the need to attack: I'm not making light of the situation, period.)
Your reaction is interesting. His defendant (Simpson) benefited but the pursuit of truth and justice (for Ron and Nicole) was damaged. And it was done purposefully and blatantly for one reason. Not the pursuit of justice but the benefit of Simpson alone...maybe one of the least deserving persons in the history of jurisprudence.
Same about Bailey and Dershowitz. Dershowitz still says section 128 of the California Penal code is a lie, and Bailey insisted until his death that Fuhrman planted the glove even after OJ confessed to Judith Regan that he dropped one glove there.
True, though Douglas was really the nuts-n-bolts member of the team who did the *real* in the trenches lawyering with other members of Cochrane's firm while Bailey, Dersh, Sheck, Neufeld & Cochrane himself were the flashy look-at-me, look-at-me bozos, each with a specialized area of the case to tackle, with Shapiro as the figurehead. Both Bailey and Dershowitz specifically have become such caricatures of their former selves it isn't funny, so I don't put too much stock in what either of them says - their character issues notwithstanding.While as much of a shill as both of them, Douglas at least seems to be a somewhat decent human being, his racial biases aside.
So, Carl is basically saying flat out....they cheated.. By making him blacker.. ?!?! Should never have been allowed to change a thing in that house.. Let the jury judge him for what type of person he was..
Carl was doing his Job --- it's up to the Judge to "Manage" the Trial & keep Both sides under control so the Jury can render a Fair decision ---- I think what comes across over & over in this Documentary from Both sides is that Judge Ido Wanted to be Famous & completely dropped the ball......... That being said - I don;t believe this Jury would have render Any other decision other than Not Guilty even if there was Video evidence of O.Jizzle fo shizzle doing the dirt........ It's just the way it is ---- Suburban White people need to get over this ---- Rich white guys get off Every day - it's just Not on TV.......
This is a lie... I saw some of the pictures on OJ's wall and they were mostly his family and children. His family is half white and black the Simpsons and the Browns so I don't know what his asshole is talking about! He is also in big trouble for disclosing attorney work product information with the consent of the client!
@@elinaple Um no. The media "focused" on her looks and tore her up no matter what she did. I, on the other hand, happened to notice how much happier she seems now that all that crap is in the past, and she doesn't have the weight on her anymore! Always going for the negative, huh?
Don’t be silly . It’s called “lawyer”. Even if a lawyer knew his client committed murder, it’s their job to try to get them off. That’s what they get paid for. Thats why they go to law school. Use common sense if you have it. Are the defense team supposed to say their client is guilty? This statement is asinine
Flaccidus Minimus she looks older to me... The hairstyle is different which makes her look different but she has aged some and has gained weight so her face is fuller
I agree she aged backwords and all those saying plastic surgery where you'll there? Did you'll see her get it? Plastic surgery doesn't look like that. Thats all natural. And the weigh gain really people? She is beautiful period don't hate you'll.
Worth you all listening to Ron Goldman’s sister’s podcast series ‘Confronting OJ Simpson’ free wherever you get your podcasts - an eye-opener to the trials also & many involved feature on & are interviewed throughout the podcast series...
Maryann G to be fair, whilst I agree with that statement about good black don’t crack....Carl Douglas was never exactly handsome to begin with..lol. My grandmother was Indian, and she looked young at 80. Seems the more melanin in the skin, the less wrinkles. I did inherit an olive skin, and so far...I’m doing ok..lol. Could go downhill quickly though 😂
I'm surprised Marcia is so willing to even sit there with Carl... especially with how unapologetic he is about his... lack of integrity. Full credit to both of them for their honesty and maturity. The documentary is amazing.
POObumpoopo Well, like they said, she has been a defense attorney too. That's a defense attorney's job, and Marcia knows and respects that. I think she's most angry with Judge Ito for letting the defense team run amuck. Lawyers aren't like the rest of us. To a lawyer, there is no objective truth. There is only their client to represent as aggressively as possible.
Why should she be upset at him? He did his job to zealously defend his client...Ito allowed the tomfoolery. He, and the LAPD failed Ron, Nicole, and the people of LA county.
why does that look like it surprises you? Donald Trump and people like him were who OJ surrounded himself with. His friends and girlfriends were all white (aside from his first wife who he cheated on and left for Nicole). Its very sad that the black community wrapped their arms around him and embraced him the way they did.
Prosecution team arrogance brought them there. I doubt the defense team invited them 😂😂😂 Darden and Clark got their butts kicked in the courtroom. End of story.
Definitely one of the best Documentary's that I've ever seen, maybe one of the best yet to be made, period. I was 16 when the Bronco chase happened, and what the trial and the story came to mean and represent was more than anybody would know at the time. This story means alot to me and I'm sure that It always will.
"We did NOT remove all of his pictures with white people, the wHoLE house woulda been gone--woulda been dark! We didn't do that!" "Marcia saw the wall, and she said, 'Carl, you know damn well he has never had this many black people on his wall his entire life.' *seemingly insulted, hands flailing upwards in defense* I said, "MaAAaRrRrciaAaAAaAaAaaa--what are you tALkKinNNgGgg aBoUtttTTttTTt?!?!?!? How daarRrRrrEeeee yoU acCusE us of sUcH tHinNnGsSs?!?!?" *cuts to the next scene:* "If we had had a Latin jury, we woulda had a picture of him in sombrero!" *next clip, while leaning forward:* "THERE WOULDA BEEN A MARIACHI BAND OUT FRONT. WE WOULDA HAD A PINATA AT THE UPPPER STAIRCASE." CARL DOUGLAS IS EVERYTHING.
they didn't cheat. they simply did what was allowed to by judge ito. ito was the one who let johnny and lee bailey go apeshit amuck with their ridiculous conspiracy narrative. a good judge would've held that shit back from the beginning. a good judge would've never ALLOWED an indoor walk-through of the house in the first place, and relegate the tour to only the location of the glove. so yeah, what douglas, chocrane and bailey did? it was well within the rule of law, and ultimately allowed by a piss judge.
They didn’t cheat. They did their job, which is to influence the jury. It was Ito’s fault for allowing the jury into OJ’s house. It wasn’t relevant to the case
The documentary is honestly the best I've ever seen. It truly captures EVERYTHING that went on regarding the case and the racial issues in LA at that time which all coincided with each other. So perfectly done!!
A key moment I noticed was when in the beginning in the film… the black activist athletes were trying to link up with OJ… and he ignored them. Later on during his trial there was a jury member who looked at OJ & raised his fist up in the air and OJ nodded to him. “I’m not black, I’m OJ” . . . . . .
I can't believe these two sat together. I mean, I guess at this point its all ancient history, and Carl was on the winning and Marcia ended up fine from all of it. But in the end this is a case she lost because the defense played insanely dirty and let a guilty man go free. I guess thats all part of the courtroom, but I'm surprised she doesn't hold a judge and says "I don't want to be anywhere near anyone that was on that defense team."
gajaga789; For the record I think OJ was at the crime scene the night of the murders. His size 12 bloody footprints place him there. However, one also knows they played with evidence. I.e. Missing blood from the sample OJ gave, EDTA (preservative found only in sample vials) was found in DNA testing of socks, back gate and bronco. The blood stain on back gate found several weeks after collection, which they found a pic taken the day of collection that showed it was not on the gate. Pressed in blood stain on sock. Equally shocking was the Fung testimony. I can fill two pages of instances where detectives manipulated evidence. None of it matters. As stated, I think he was there. If only they stayed honest and not try to bolster their case against him (dropping the glove) he would have been convicted. It makes no sense! If OJ arrived home and went from his bronco to the front door leaving a bloody trail, how does it square with him dropping the glove as he came home claiming over the fence? Considering this would be a high profile case involving a defendant who was rich and famous, they tried to make it as air tight as possible. The only problem with this is "there is no such thing as the perfect crime".
No blame to the defence lawyers, they were paid to win the case and that is just what they did! Maybe the state should have done the same and build a dream team lawyers of their own, but they didn't and the rest is history.
I honestly felt Ron and Nicole got more justice than most people would get. 12 people were killed in Los Angeles and they did not get the resources paid to their murders like Ron and Nicole. Their lives were just as important to them. District attorney spent unlimited amount to convict one person. Just because the outcome wasn’t what people wanted they feel a miscarriage of justice. Go look into and share sympathy for the other ten killed in LA that day
Why is it so hard for people to understand that in the criminal court system if the prosecution makes more mistakes than the defense guilty men go free. Don't hate the players hate the game. Darden, Ito, Fung and Fhurman royally screwed up.
rrmond the two jurors they interviewed were two mos stupid women ....Furhman has 7nice hair Domestic Violence doesnt lead to Murder...and the Oh My God lady...disgusting I Am AA and ashsmed of this jury.
Agreed. And even Marcia Clark made mistakes. She decided to put Furhrman on the stand. Big mistake. Darden made the crucial mistake of having O.J. try on the glove. Defense tried a nearly perfect case, prosecution tried a good case but made unforced errors and they are the ones with the burden of proof.
Pretty good interview, but I think it would have been easier to watch if they would have taped their hands to their chairs. Also, don't ask a multiple question. Keep it simple and direct. If you ask a multiple question they will usually answer only the last part of the question. Ask a single question and be sure you get an answer. Carry on ~
The defense cheated in this case. Altering the crime scene and Carl Douglas also in is own way was telling us of course he’s guilty but I was a defense attorney and I had to do my job.
Judge Ito is the person that blew the case. He let the "Dream Team" walk all over him. Marsha Clark seemed to be more focused about advancing her career than really doing her job.
Marcia is professional enough not to have taken the trial personally -- not to be eaten up with anger at the defense for doing what they did. She recognizes that she would have done everything to get her client off too. And vice versa for Carl.
I agree 100% ------ Carl Douglas is a Star! ----- someone on the Cable Networks MUST Immediately put together "The Carl Douglas Show!" ----- I would watch him Every night just spit-balling on current issues....... Make it Happen Hollywood!
OJ has a "hypothetical" confession from 2006. He said - in the hypothetical - that the guy there (Ron) took a martial arts stance and some have said Ron was a third degree blackbelt. It's rather ironic that one of OJ's lawyers is Carl Douglas and the man who sang King Fu Fighting is also named Carl Douglas.
As big as all the injustices against blacks throughout American history. But yes, the fact that all those white-on-black murders and this black-on-white murder went unpunished because of race or celebrity, all the evidence ignored, its a disgrace to justice. Regardless of skin colour or finances, a murderer should be brought to justice, and OJ should've faced the death penalty. Had he been an ordinary citizen, he'd be dead and buried in 1995 with that mountain of guilt. Anyone who thinks his acquittal was a victory for the black community is dead wrong, it was actually a major blow, because hate crimes skyrocketed and Prop 209 in California still hasn't been repealed.
Ito was Ito struck. He forced the attorneys every day to sit in his chambers and watch him (Ito) on the late night talk shows and like clap and cheer for him. He was huge A-hole
O.J. Simpson‘s defense team did not, as Clark suggests, "push the envelope.” What it did was highly unethical and unprofessional and should have been stopped by Judge Ito. But due to his LA stargazing and incompetence during the trial it wasn’t. Clark and her fellow prosecutors are to blame for not fighting much harder against the efforts to make the trial not about O.J.’s brutal murder of two people but about issues that were wholly irrelevant.
Marcia Clark addresses The National Press Club about the reality of what she was up against in the O.J.Simpson trial , May 1997 . A lesser prosecutor would have buckled !!! th-cam.com/video/IhqH6VEW7rU/w-d-xo.html
The fact that Marcia was a defense lawyer and later returned to the defense indicates that maybe prosecuting wasnt her passion and that the DA had made a bad decision in letting her represent The People.
What truth? I love how everybody acts like they know for a fact that OJ did it. Everybody has a theory, no one will ever know for sure. Only God and OJ know what happened that night.
bro, he did it. He left more evidence behind than was ever needed to convict him. forget the blood, hair,fiber, shoe prints, gloves, injuries, missing Bronco, lies to everyone.. he's a double murderer...
+mjmitch3333 There were inconsistencies within every piece of evidence. The LAPD screwed up big time. As much evidence as there may be to convict him, there just much not to convict him. Hence, why it is a tricky case.
Arzoo Khan No, it's not even close. There is a mountain of incriminating evidence against OJ Simpson. Anything the defense pointed out was a distraction...none of it exonerated him. It was just a way to manipulate the jury. The defense attorneys all knew he did it.
The oj rule didn't work for Chris Rock. Millions saw it but will Smith still got a standing ovation. That whole room cheered Will. People still will allow violence. Will Smith should have been put in cuffs. If the camera guy slapped him he would still be sitting in prison.
Yes that should of been done differently it was now Oscar this year back to all white that's what will and jada got done for the work was going into the black people
u can when you gotta cop who takes evidence home for the weekend and admits to framing black men who date black women then pleads the fifth when asked if he had anything to do with framing the defendant, that shit alone made the case.
Listen man, so did I. But then I learned OJ didn't care about us blacks... He disassociated from us his whole career but then used his race that he looked down upon to get off? FOH. Fuck him man...
Carl Douglas is something else, what a little worm. With that said, it's Ito's fault for ringleading that circus. He had the power to check the defense, but he had stars in his eyes. That guy flat out sucks. The defense could, so they did. The defense did their job for their client, cashed their checks, and rode on. It was only partially about OJ Simpson, I think everyone can agree on that. The jurors admit as much, after the fact. You cannot keep messing with a group and expect it to ok, eventually things will even out. It's a great series, even if you don't care much about the case. Very well done. I will admit, it was a little disappointing to hear Marcia Clark went back to being a defense lawyer. But I guess you gotta get in, where you fit in.
Mk L - on the ‘Confronting OJ’ Podcast by Ron Goldman’s sister Ito wrote her an e-mail stating his reason for not going on her podcast which basically is he has sold the rights to his story to a publisher for his book to be released once he has retired from his job as a Judge - awful man...
@@raqueldobson1 I did not realize that, thank you for letting me know. He is quite the turd. That's pretty low, and just makes it really hard to trust people. Seems like too many people have an agenda to just help themselves. Anyway, thanks again and be safe.
Ito is a gross excuse of a human being. He was a sexist pig to Marcia and star struck to the defense and the defendant. He fixed the entire trial for OJ to walk. And Ito will burn in hell eventually along with his friends Johnnie Cochran, Bob Kardashian and OJ.
@@chichi141htz she kept repeating questions and not listening to the witnesses, and got testy with the prosecution's own witnesses too. Plus Darden was a bumbling, emotional fool who thought he could go toe to toe with Cochran
This interviewer is not very good. His questions are, like, paragraphs long. You can tell from the reactions after nearly every question where the panelists look confused like "what was the question again?" or even "was that a question?" Interviewer needs to read some John Sawatsky.
Yes. Becuase he is trying to be Woke and not "offend" anyone who might want OJ to be innocent. It's a shame really considering how well the documentary was made.
Sadly, if OJ was accused and then found not guilty of killing two Black people, the victims would not have received the same sympathy as the victims in this case and the outrage over the verdict wouldn't exist.
Everyone in the world knows the butcher got free because of a joke of a justice system and stupid jurors who did not understand DNA or forensic evidence! How the lawyers who defended him sleep at night ,still escapes me. In every normal country with all that INSANELY overwhelming forensic evidence,the slaughterer would have been sentenced to life prison. But in America, the racial circus and everything that had nothing to do with the two innocents murdered, came to play. We in other countries watched lauging via tears ,disgusted and dismayed . This case was a sham of US justice.
Watched the police chase the white Bronco in real time and now watching this in 2023 - all still relevant and agree, should be required for students , victims and anyone interested in Anerican society..
That defense team had no integrity and the ignorant jury members had the mind-set of the typical inner-city black. The LAPD was not trusted and rightfully so....but this trial was not about the LAPD, it was about a murderer who was allowed to go free even though there was a mountain of evidence for a GULITY verdict. The only guy who really showed any integrity throughout the whole circus of the trial was Mark Furhman. In my opinion Fuhrman was a stand-up detective and was wrongly judged....he did make some mistakes early in his life but he became one of the best detectives in the LAPD.
I agree that OJ was the murderer but to call the defense ignorant, even though it was their job to defend their client and to call the jury ignorant for doing their job, is ignorant. Did you call the jury of the Trayvon Martin case? What about the Rodney King case? Or the Latasha Harlins case? Or the Michael Brown case? Sarah Bland? Eric Grant? John Crawford? There's so many situations where there wasn't justice for the black community, did you think those were "ignorant" situations as well? This was one case, directly after those cops got off for beating Rodney King, and the Chinese lady got off for killing that 15 year old girl Latasha Harlins, so even if there wasn't justice, could other races, particularly White America, really complain, seriously? The prosecution blew this case. Cochran was a hero in the black community because he fought for us...just like America still fights for White America. At the end of the day, we are still Black in America, which means, we lose...still.
Rashan....I did not call the defense ignorant, they were in fact the best that money could buy. Yes, there are many instances where blacks were denied justice....I grew up and live in the South (Mississippi) so I am well aware of the injustices towards the black race. I also agree with you on the King trial....those cops were as guilty as hell and should have served time. I think that led to Simpson being acquitted....they did not want more riots so they moved the trial downtown rather than Santa Monica. The case was unwinnable for the prosecution form the start....plus the fact that they were not very competent during the trial. Finally, you are right, the situation in America has not changed much for blacks....it is a sad and depressing thought. Stay strong my brother!
+R.E. Lopez To I apologize for misquoting you and also taking what you wrote out of context bro! I just hope that as a nation, we can get better with how we treat and how we feel about each other! The in-fighting the country has is so frustrating, especially when we have enemies who are willing to die just to kill Americans! We are all one nation and we are all Americans and we need to get past situations defining us when we can move forward and fight the real enemies we have. You also stay strong bro!
so just when is it you intend to run for president...lol.....i read what you wrote and in my opinion it's so true. it's so sad to see young people hanging around doing absolutely nothing. i understand people live in sewer tunnels because they have no money to build huge housing projects. some large cities are using small wooden houses like in a small village. it's not a glamorous home but at least somebody is trying something different which is helping a lot
@@christalake7899 Girl Nicole was a hoe...Brentwood hoe!! She slept with lots of ppl...what are the odds though? Think this over. Glen Rogers knew Faye resnick and Nicole. Was her handy man and became her lover, his family already stated that!! He was the cross country killer that killed as many as 70 women. In prison now, was in Brentwood the night of the murders and had a relationship with Nicole. Who would be the killer??? 👀
The trial was in the wrong venue, Marcia Clark would not have been my first choice, Chris Darden was emotionally too weak, TV's should have been banned from the courtroom, and the Judge was incapable of controlling the court. The harder they tried to make it a non-racial trial the more it became one. The outcome was basically pre-determined.
The term race card isn't used as much now because it's no longer a card, now it's practically the whole deck. These days people wear victimhood like a badge of honor.
as well as they should, if they have been victimized and then societally shamed for somehow being responsible for simply having had the experience is something we should all consider; especially if it is a shared victimhood that often gets silenced or overlooked. It's sad that the badge of being victimized even exists--victimhood in all shapes and forms should be recognized. Our society can do better on all fronts.
TheMicIsMyLover IF THEY HAVE BEEN VICTIMISED. This doesn’t cover everyone who happens to be born black. Not every black person is victimised, definitely not OJ Simpson. He got let off so many times for beating Nicole. And, according to the jury advisors, Black women hated her. They hated her simply because she was a white woman with a rich black man. Who is the victim here? I know.
I am sick of Marcia being famous off bloody y trial fabricated by state of LA go on Marcia if it so bad why keep talking about it all of you live Simpson without him Marcia still be looking 70 yrs old
I doubt there will be a documentary like this ever made again. It should be required in a lot of education programs.
Including film schools: it could be used as an example of how to make a documentary.
I couldn’t agree more. It should be required viewing.

He is no longer a judge on the bench. But he wasn't a bad judge, just the wrong judge for this trial.

The shenanigans perpetrated by OJ’s defense team are reprehensible. His team was deplorable, unethical and dishonest.
Don’t be silly . It’s called “lawyer”. Even if a lawyer knew his client committed murder, it’s their job to try to get them off. That’s what they get paid for. Thats why they go to law school. Use common sense if you have it. Are the defense team supposed to say their client is guilty? This statement is asinine
@@chineduokonkwo1775 I don’t dispute your position. You’re absolutely correct. So am I. Both things can be true.
Great documentary, it was intoxicating. So much detail and perspective. Thanks Ezra for making this film.
Curious how Marcia Clark almost looks younger today than she did in '95...and like a completely different person.
Flaccidus Minimus she looks older to me... The hairstyle is different which makes her look different but she has aged some and has gained weight so her face is fuller
She looks good, plastic surgery I don't see it.
plastic surgery and make up does that.
I agree she aged backwords and all those saying plastic surgery where you'll there? Did you'll see her get it? Plastic surgery doesn't look like that. Thats all natural. And the weigh gain really people? She is beautiful period don't hate you'll.
She clearly most definitely had plastic surgery, even Stevie Wonder could see that.
Worth you all listening to Ron Goldman’s sister’s podcast series ‘Confronting OJ Simpson’ free wherever you get your podcasts - an eye-opener to the trials also & many involved feature on & are interviewed throughout the podcast series...
I love Marcia Clark. Ito was the one who really screwed this up in my opinion.
Carl Douglas has not changed one single bit since 1995!!!! :-)
yup still an annoying scumbag
@Alan Kennedy: "Good Black Don't Crack!"
Maryann G to be fair, whilst I agree with that statement about good black don’t crack....Carl Douglas was never exactly handsome to begin with..lol. My grandmother was Indian, and she looked young at 80. Seems the more melanin in the skin, the less wrinkles. I did inherit an olive skin, and so far...I’m doing ok..lol. Could go downhill quickly though 😂
I'm surprised Marcia is so willing to even sit there with Carl... especially with how unapologetic he is about his... lack of integrity. Full credit to both of them for their honesty and maturity. The documentary is amazing.
POObumpoopo Well, like they said, she has been a defense attorney too. That's a defense attorney's job, and Marcia knows and respects that. I think she's most angry with Judge Ito for letting the defense team run amuck.
Lawyers aren't like the rest of us. To a lawyer, there is no objective truth. There is only their client to represent as aggressively as possible.
Why should she be upset at him? He did his job to zealously defend his client...Ito allowed the tomfoolery. He, and the LAPD failed Ron, Nicole, and the people of LA county.
N/A - this was business (two opposing attorneys); it was not personal. I agree with you; the documentary is amazing!
It's business, both were doing their jobs. Nothing personal between them.
They are friends it was a job she has nothing against him personally
Is that OJ Simpson with Donald Trump at 1:13???????
Niamh Dillon Yep.
it makes sense, OJ was 'in' with lots of rich people
why does that look like it surprises you? Donald Trump and people like him were who OJ surrounded himself with. His friends and girlfriends were all white (aside from his first wife who he cheated on and left for Nicole). Its very sad that the black community wrapped their arms around him and embraced him the way they did.
OJ was at Trump’s wedding to Marla Maples in 1993
YES.
I always thought it was absurd that they brought the jury to OJ’s house! That whole trial was an embarrassment to the American justice system.
Prosecution team arrogance brought them there. I doubt the defense team invited them 😂😂😂 Darden and Clark got their butts kicked in the courtroom. End of story.
Definitely one of the best Documentary's that I've ever seen, maybe one of the best yet to be made, period. I was 16 when the Bronco chase happened, and what the trial and the story came to mean and represent was more than anybody would know at the time. This story means alot to me and I'm sure that It always will.
"We did NOT remove all of his pictures with white people, the wHoLE house woulda been gone--woulda been dark! We didn't do that!"
"Marcia saw the wall, and she said, 'Carl, you know damn well he has never had this many black people on his wall his entire life.'
*seemingly insulted, hands flailing upwards in defense* I said, "MaAAaRrRrciaAaAAaAaAaaa--what are you tALkKinNNgGgg aBoUtttTTttTTt?!?!?!? How daarRrRrrEeeee yoU acCusE us of sUcH tHinNnGsSs?!?!?"
*cuts to the next scene:* "If we had had a Latin jury, we woulda had a picture of him in sombrero!"
*next clip, while leaning forward:* "THERE WOULDA BEEN A MARIACHI BAND OUT FRONT.
WE WOULDA HAD A PINATA AT THE UPPPER STAIRCASE."
CARL DOUGLAS IS EVERYTHING.
I caught most of it on ESPN the other night, but couldn't catch all of it in one night. Didn't see this part.
I cannot believe Carl Douglas said this...even years later. It shows they cheated. Wonder what Johnnie would have said to that
Why? It was obvious in '94. It's not like it's a new revalation.
they didn't cheat. they simply did what was allowed to by judge ito. ito was the one who let johnny and lee bailey go apeshit amuck with their ridiculous conspiracy narrative. a good judge would've held that shit back from the beginning. a good judge would've never ALLOWED an indoor walk-through of the house in the first place, and relegate the tour to only the location of the glove.
so yeah, what douglas, chocrane and bailey did? it was well within the rule of law, and ultimately allowed by a piss judge.
he is a lawyer. his job is not doing da job
They didn’t cheat. They did their job, which is to influence the jury. It was Ito’s fault for allowing the jury into OJ’s house. It wasn’t relevant to the case
Oh Johnnie would've proudly admitted to it.
The documentary is honestly the best I've ever seen. It truly captures EVERYTHING that went on regarding the case and the racial issues in LA at that time which all coincided with each other. So perfectly done!!
Amazing documentary! My wife and I have watched it so many times now.
A key moment I noticed was when in the beginning in the film… the black activist athletes were trying to link up with OJ… and he ignored them. Later on during his trial there was a jury member who looked at OJ & raised his fist up in the air and OJ nodded to him.
“I’m not black, I’m OJ” . . . . . .
I can't believe these two sat together. I mean, I guess at this point its all ancient history, and Carl was on the winning and Marcia ended up fine from all of it. But in the end this is a case she lost because the defense played insanely dirty and let a guilty man go free. I guess thats all part of the courtroom, but I'm surprised she doesn't hold a judge and says "I don't want to be anywhere near anyone that was on that defense team."
Because neither are morally superior. They're fuckin lawyers lol.
gajaga789; For the record I think OJ was at the crime scene the night of the murders. His size 12 bloody footprints place him there. However, one also knows they played with evidence. I.e. Missing blood from the sample OJ gave, EDTA (preservative found only in sample vials) was found in DNA testing of socks, back gate and bronco. The blood stain on back gate found several weeks after collection, which they found a pic taken the day of collection that showed it was not on the gate. Pressed in blood stain on sock. Equally shocking was the Fung testimony. I can fill two pages of instances where detectives manipulated evidence. None of it matters. As stated, I think he was there. If only they stayed honest and not try to bolster their case against him (dropping the glove) he would have been convicted. It makes no sense! If OJ arrived home and went from his bronco to the front door leaving a bloody trail, how does it square with him dropping the glove as he came home claiming over the fence? Considering this would be a high profile case involving a defendant who was rich and famous, they tried to make it as air tight as possible. The only problem with this is "there is no such thing as the perfect crime".
Were You there to see OJ do it?
OJ proved his guilt by the Bronco chase and the gun to his head a innocent person would never do that.
OJ Made in America was EXCEPTIONAL RIP Nicole and Ronald
No blame to the defence lawyers, they were paid to win the case and that is just what they did! Maybe the state should have done the same and build a dream team lawyers of their own, but they didn't and the rest is history.
"I wouldn't call it a card as well, I refer to it at the evidence card, or the credibility card"
Amazing documentary
Ezra did an amazing job x
Domestic Violence doesn't just happen to women - it happens to men, as well
I honestly felt Ron and Nicole got more justice than most people would get. 12 people were killed in Los Angeles and they did not get the resources paid to their murders like Ron and Nicole. Their lives were just as important to them. District attorney spent unlimited amount to convict one person. Just because the outcome wasn’t what people wanted they feel a miscarriage of justice. Go look into and share sympathy for the other ten killed in LA that day
Murder isn't about sympathy
It's about evidence
First names, won't tell you anything about the victims
that didn't know
Biggest revelation from this doc was from O.J.'s former agent... 'Nicole would still be alive if she wasn't carrying a knife.' Holy shit.
Turd Ferguson Well, that's what OJ told him. But he said he didn't believe it.
Nicole would be alive if she had a gun. Or OJ would have killed her before this.
This guy asks THE longest questions in the history of interviews.
long questions about a long film
While true, these are great questions. Very thoughtful interview about an incredible documentary.
Why is it so hard for people to understand that in the criminal court system if the prosecution makes more mistakes than the defense guilty men go free. Don't hate the players hate the game. Darden, Ito, Fung and Fhurman royally screwed up.
rrmond the two jurors they interviewed were two mos stupid women ....Furhman has 7nice hair Domestic Violence doesnt lead to Murder...and the Oh My God lady...disgusting I Am AA and ashsmed of this jury.
Agreed. And even Marcia Clark made mistakes. She decided to put Furhrman on the stand. Big mistake. Darden made the crucial mistake of having O.J. try on the glove. Defense tried a nearly perfect case, prosecution tried a good case but made unforced errors and they are the ones with the burden of proof.
Pretty good interview, but I think it would have been easier to watch if they would have taped their hands to their chairs.
Also, don't ask a multiple question. Keep it simple and direct. If you ask a multiple question they will usually answer
only the last part of the question. Ask a single question and be sure you get an answer. Carry on ~
The defense cheated in this case. Altering the crime scene and Carl Douglas also in is own way was telling us of course he’s guilty but I was a defense attorney and I had to do my job.
Marcia Clark has a lot of excuses for poor prosecution. Judge Ito did a great job.
"This is the big leagues and in the big leagues we play hardball"I always like Douglas
Great interview!
The jury did not care because they let him go anyway
Exactly. This so called jury made their minds up even before the trial started. One of them even admitted this was about revenge
Judge Ito is the person that blew the case. He let the "Dream Team" walk all over him. Marsha Clark seemed to be more focused about advancing her career than really doing her job.
Carl Douglas is one sneaky snake, and he knows it.
i would wager Douglas & all the dream team have nightmares over letting a known murderer go free. awesome film mr edelman.
I bet they didn’t lose a wink of sleep. Mark Fuhrman, the gloves, the handling of the blood? Reasonable doubt all over the place.
Marcia is professional enough not to have taken the trial personally -- not to be eaten up with anger at the defense for doing what they did. She recognizes that she would have done everything to get her client off too. And vice versa for Carl.
She went too personal with victims families
You could have had a video of oj committing the crimes and that jury still wouldn't have convicted him.
@@dancollins8296 exactly. They were never going to convict him no matter what

Jack Singleton No doubt. This guy definitely needs his own show. He cracks me up every time.
agreed.
Can a network please fund this!? The guy's great!
OJ has a "hypothetical" confession from 2006. He said - in the hypothetical - that the guy there (Ron) took a martial arts stance and some have said Ron was a third degree blackbelt. It's rather ironic that one of OJ's lawyers is Carl Douglas and the man who sang King Fu Fighting is also named Carl Douglas.
I feel like Ezra Edelman is Matt Barnes's alter ego.
lmao random but hilarious...much like Matt Barnes' career

One of the biggest injustices ever .
As big as all the injustices against blacks throughout American history. But yes, the fact that all those white-on-black murders and this black-on-white murder went unpunished because of race or celebrity, all the evidence ignored, its a disgrace to justice. Regardless of skin colour or finances, a murderer should be brought to justice, and OJ should've faced the death penalty. Had he been an ordinary citizen, he'd be dead and buried in 1995 with that mountain of guilt. Anyone who thinks his acquittal was a victory for the black community is dead wrong, it was actually a major blow, because hate crimes skyrocketed and Prop 209 in California still hasn't been repealed.
*slavery *Emmitt Till *Birmingham bombing...I can go on and on
Ito was obviously Star struck…
Ito was Ito struck. He forced the attorneys every day to sit in his chambers and watch him (Ito) on the late night talk shows and like clap and cheer for him. He was huge A-hole
Ito was a horrible judge in that case. Hope he’s still not on the bench. He was so intimidated by the defense.
You look awesome Marsha! You did a great job! No matter what they were going to let him go!
Clark did not do a great job, she was awful.
I have a prosecutor friend, who is just like Clark, gets mad and alienates the jury. I win ever time she blows her stack
Yeah Right..
Sure you do buddy
Only 32. That would put him in the 4th or 5th grade in 1994. He would be clueless to the whole trial.
O.J. Simpson‘s defense team did not, as Clark suggests, "push the envelope.” What it did was highly unethical and unprofessional and should have been stopped by Judge Ito. But due to his LA stargazing and incompetence during the trial it wasn’t. Clark and her fellow prosecutors are to blame for not fighting much harder against the efforts to make the trial not about O.J.’s brutal murder of two people but about issues that were wholly irrelevant.
Marcia Clark addresses The National Press Club about the reality of what she was up against in the O.J.Simpson trial , May 1997 . A lesser prosecutor would have buckled !!! th-cam.com/video/IhqH6VEW7rU/w-d-xo.html
The fact that Marcia was a defense lawyer and later returned to the defense indicates that maybe prosecuting wasnt her passion and that the DA had made a bad decision in letting her represent The People.
Carl Douglas is so underhanded and slimy. It's like he's proud of skewing the truth. Despicable.
What truth? I love how everybody acts like they know for a fact that OJ did it.
Everybody has a theory, no one will ever know for sure. Only God and OJ know what happened that night.
bro, he did it. He left more evidence behind than was ever needed to convict him. forget the blood, hair,fiber, shoe prints, gloves, injuries, missing Bronco, lies to everyone.. he's a double murderer...
+mjmitch3333 There were inconsistencies within every piece of evidence. The LAPD screwed up big time.
As much evidence as there may be to convict him, there just much not to convict him. Hence, why it is a tricky case.
+mjmitch3333 Agree. DNA. Is all the proof they ever needed. For Christ sake, they're using it to free people!!!
Arzoo Khan No, it's not even close. There is a mountain of incriminating evidence against OJ Simpson. Anything the defense pointed out was a distraction...none of it exonerated him. It was just a way to manipulate the jury. The defense attorneys all knew he did it.
every time defense lawyers explain their duty it just comes off as being liars as much as allowed; it never comes off positively
At times Marcia Clark looks like Victoria Beckham.
candygirl yes and sometimes Sheldon Coopers mother! Does that mean we know how Victoria is going to look like later in live?
Marcia accept jury beyond reasonable doubt amazing OJ Simpson very smart gentlemen
omg..at 0:57..its Bruce Jenner before he went insane....
If Carl Douglas took a lie detector did oj do it if he said no the needle would have jumped off the machine
The oj rule didn't work for Chris Rock. Millions saw it but will Smith still got a standing ovation. That whole room cheered Will. People still will allow violence. Will Smith should have been put in cuffs. If the camera guy slapped him he would still be sitting in prison.
Yes that should of been done differently it was now Oscar this year back to all white that's what will and jada got done for the work was going into the black people
Carl Douglas is hilarious 😂
??
u can when you gotta cop who takes evidence home for the weekend and admits to framing black men who date black women then pleads the fifth when asked if he had anything to do with framing the defendant, that shit alone made the case.
Lets all hope you don't actually think he's innocent
It don't matter I wanted him to get off
Listen man, so did I. But then I learned OJ didn't care about us blacks... He disassociated from us his whole career but then used his race that he looked down upon to get off? FOH. Fuck him man...
A masterpiece in film making
Carl Douglas is something else, what a little worm. With that said, it's Ito's fault for ringleading that circus. He had the power to check the defense, but he had stars in his eyes. That guy flat out sucks. The defense could, so they did. The defense did their job for their client, cashed their checks, and rode on. It was only partially about OJ Simpson, I think everyone can agree on that. The jurors admit as much, after the fact. You cannot keep messing with a group and expect it to ok, eventually things will even out. It's a great series, even if you don't care much about the case. Very well done. I will admit, it was a little disappointing to hear Marcia Clark went back to being a defense lawyer. But I guess you gotta get in, where you fit in.
Mk L - on the ‘Confronting OJ’ Podcast by Ron Goldman’s sister Ito wrote her an e-mail stating his reason for not going on her podcast which basically is he has sold the rights to his story to a publisher for his book to be released once he has retired from his job as a Judge - awful man...
@@raqueldobson1 I did not realize that, thank you for letting me know. He is quite the turd. That's pretty low, and just makes it really hard to trust people. Seems like too many people have an agenda to just help themselves. Anyway, thanks again and be safe.
Ito is a gross excuse of a human being. He was a sexist pig to Marcia and star struck to the defense and the defendant. He fixed the entire trial for OJ to walk. And Ito will burn in hell eventually along with his friends Johnnie Cochran, Bob Kardashian and OJ.
Over 20 years gone and Marcia Clark is still blaming everyone but herself. She was as big of a reason as any why the verdict went that way.
How?
@@chichi141htz she kept repeating questions and not listening to the witnesses, and got testy with the prosecution's own witnesses too. Plus Darden was a bumbling, emotional fool who thought he could go toe to toe with Cochran
Marcia is guilty of being pretty.
Hey Tommy pence you're forgetting about oj blood at the scene I guess the jury forgot about it
u mean the blood spots that are not in pictures taken the first day but appear next day?
I am totally attracted to Marsha Clark now especially since watching 'Made in America'. Smart, attractive. great sense of humor. Love you Marsha.
Some wonderful day, you will love her enough to spell her name correctly.

It is a real issue
Damn! I was hoping Carl would sing Kung Fu Fighting. Its definitely his greatest hit.
Lol is that the same Carl Douglas
🤣
1974..
lmao!!
I bet Marcia is so exhausted over this case
This interviewer is not very good. His questions are, like, paragraphs long. You can tell from the reactions after nearly every question where the panelists look confused like "what was the question again?" or even "was that a question?" Interviewer needs to read some John Sawatsky.
Oh my gosh one question starts at 10:40 and doesn't finish until 11:50 dude get a grip. This isn't about you.
Yes. Becuase he is trying to be Woke and not "offend" anyone who might want OJ to be innocent. It's a shame really considering how well the documentary was made.
Lady Justice has sadly left the building
Omg how Ito didn’t get thrown off the trial is beyond me.
Sadly, if OJ was accused and then found not guilty of killing two Black people, the victims would not have received the same sympathy as the victims in this case and the outrage over the verdict wouldn't exist.
If his victims were black he wouldn’t be acquitted
the host does too much talking
Everyone in the world knows the butcher got free because of a joke of a justice system and stupid jurors who did not understand DNA or forensic evidence! How the lawyers who defended him sleep at night ,still escapes me. In every normal country with all that INSANELY overwhelming forensic evidence,the slaughterer would have been sentenced to life prison. But in America, the racial circus and everything that had nothing to do with the two innocents murdered, came to play. We in other countries watched lauging via tears ,disgusted and dismayed . This case was a sham of US justice.
Is Ito the worst judge ever?
So it's ok for the defense to trick people, but if the LAPD does it then it wrong. I see know. I had it all wrong apparently.
The defense didn’t trick anyone.
@@DeepDishPizza changing how the home looked was playing with evidence
it's a crime
carl douglas is a thug
LAPD fucked with the actual crime scene, OJ's house wasn't evidence. If LAPD didn't mess up there would be no 'race card' to use.
Edelman did a great job. Great job telling all the back stories.
Watched the police chase the white Bronco in real time and now watching this in 2023 - all still relevant and agree, should be required for students , victims and anyone interested in Anerican society..
OJ is a classic narcissist
6:35 Talks about Mark and glove 6:02 27:12 EXTREAME ?
That defense team had no integrity and the ignorant jury members had the mind-set of the typical inner-city black. The LAPD was not trusted and rightfully so....but this trial was not about the LAPD, it was about a murderer who was allowed to go free even though there was a mountain of evidence for a GULITY verdict. The only guy who really showed any integrity throughout the whole circus of the trial was Mark Furhman. In my opinion Fuhrman was a stand-up detective and was wrongly judged....he did make some mistakes early in his life but he became one of the best detectives in the LAPD.
Completely agree
I agree that OJ was the murderer but to call the defense ignorant, even though it was their job to defend their client and to call the jury ignorant for doing their job, is ignorant. Did you call the jury of the Trayvon Martin case? What about the Rodney King case? Or the Latasha Harlins case? Or the Michael Brown case? Sarah Bland? Eric Grant? John Crawford? There's so many situations where there wasn't justice for the black community, did you think those were "ignorant" situations as well? This was one case, directly after those cops got off for beating Rodney King, and the Chinese lady got off for killing that 15 year old girl Latasha Harlins, so even if there wasn't justice, could other races, particularly White America, really complain, seriously? The prosecution blew this case. Cochran was a hero in the black community because he fought for us...just like America still fights for White America. At the end of the day, we are still Black in America, which means, we lose...still.
Rashan....I did not call the defense ignorant, they were in fact the best that money could buy. Yes, there are many instances where blacks were denied justice....I grew up and live in the South (Mississippi) so I am well aware of the injustices towards the black race. I also agree with you on the King trial....those cops were as guilty as hell and should have served time. I think that led to Simpson being acquitted....they did not want more riots so they moved the trial downtown rather than Santa Monica. The case was unwinnable for the prosecution form the start....plus the fact that they were not very competent during the trial. Finally, you are right, the situation in America has not changed much for blacks....it is a sad and depressing thought. Stay strong my brother!
+R.E. Lopez To I apologize for misquoting you and also taking what you wrote out of context bro! I just hope that as a nation, we can get better with how we treat and how we feel about each other! The in-fighting the country has is so frustrating, especially when we have enemies who are willing to die just to kill Americans! We are all one nation and we are all Americans and we need to get past situations defining us when we can move forward and fight the real enemies we have. You also stay strong bro!
so just when is it you intend to run for president...lol.....i read what you wrote and in my opinion it's so true. it's so sad to see young people hanging around doing absolutely nothing. i understand people live in sewer tunnels because they have no money to build huge housing projects. some large cities are using small wooden houses like in a small village. it's not a glamorous home but at least somebody is trying something different which is helping a lot

The trial was in the wrong venue, Marcia Clark would not have been my first choice, Chris Darden was emotionally too weak, TV's should have been banned from the courtroom, and the Judge was incapable of controlling the court. The harder they tried to make it a non-racial trial the more it became one. The outcome was basically pre-determined.
The term race card isn't used as much now because it's no longer a card, now it's practically the whole deck. These days people wear victimhood like a badge of honor.
as well as they should, if they have been victimized and then societally shamed for somehow being responsible for simply having had the experience is something we should all consider; especially if it is a shared victimhood that often gets silenced or overlooked. It's sad that the badge of being victimized even exists--victimhood in all shapes and forms should be recognized. Our society can do better on all fronts.
TheMicIsMyLover IF THEY HAVE BEEN VICTIMISED. This doesn’t cover everyone who happens to be born black. Not every black person is victimised, definitely not OJ Simpson. He got let off so many times for beating Nicole. And, according to the jury advisors, Black women hated her. They hated her simply because she was a white woman with a rich black man. Who is the victim here? I know.
