Not sure who, but Johnny purposefully avoided racist witnesses (prolly to avoid the Sharpton/Jackson effect). Here's the video, makes you wonder why the show did it differently :mjpls:




"Was the testimony that you gave at the preliminary hearing in this case completely truthful?" defense attorney Gerald F. Uelmen asked in a quick, pointed confrontation with Fuhrman, who has told jurors he found a bloody glove at Simpson's estate. "Have you ever falsified a police report?"

And most strikingly, "Did you plant or manufacture any evidence in this case?"

After each question, Fuhrman leaned over, whispered to his attorney and then sat stiffly straight to answer: "I wish to assert my 5th Amendment privilege."

As Fuhrman's testimony ended, Simpson hunched over the defense table, buried his face in his hands and appeared to cry.


was really the dream team, dude didnt even pause when he asked that did you plant evidence

Watched the latest episode again. :banderas:

Can some lawyer/legal brehs explain this part I didn't understand. Why did part of the tapes get played in court, even though Judge Ito already read the transcripts? :lupe:

Damn that is crazy as fukk this trial wasn't considered a mistrial, how did they even manage to keep that. I guess that is why Ito kept parts of the Furhman tapes that related only to perjury.

jury didn't see the transcripts or hear the tapes, just the snippet portion and what three witnesses said on the stand

Obviously, he isn't a fan of the man who dragged him throughout the trial. "Johnnie Cochran has been playing the race card for much of his professional life," writes Fuhrman in Murder in Brentwood. "Was Johnnie Cochran really concerned with racism, or just money?" In fact, he thinks that Cochran is a hypocrite for going after him for using a racial slur when he apparently uses it. “Johnnie Cochran deems the 'N' word as a term of affection,” he writes.

:mjlol:
