Of course I care about the judicial process. I’ve served on a jury, and I took the responsibility extremely seriously. It gave me an even greater respect for the system. However, miscarriages of justice do occur, and they’re not as rare as you might think. Ultimately, the guilt or innocence of the defendant is decided by the jury. The jury in this case was not a random selection, but an extremely biased and cherry-picked selection, who were easily manipulated by the showboating Cochran. As I recall, the jury selection process in this case took several weeks, which is absurd. I paid very close attention to the trial, all the evidence that the public were allowed to see anyway, and the subsequent behavior of OJ after the verdict. I have no doubt at all that he killed his wife and her lover. That doesn’t mean I don’t give a rats patootie about the process, but I believe in this case the process was corrupt.

You actually believe OJ was innocent?

Yes, there was blood all over the inside of OJ’s car and on him and his clothes, when he was finally pulled over after the slow speed chase.

I don’t know what the jurors saw, but I know that most people never saw that (possibly) exculpatory video. It wouldn’t surprise me if the jurors never saw it. The popular consensus remains that Floyd, a convicted violent felon with many priors, was some sort of saint.

The justice system always renders the true verdict without bias? Bloody handed OJ being found innocent, for instance

True, Chauvin was probably over reacting. But Floyd was also known by the arresting officers as a violent felon, previously being convicted of holding a pregnant woman at gunpoint while his boys ransacked her house, among other offenses. He was portrayed by the media as an innocent victim.

Floyd was ODing on fentanyl. He had been saying “I can’t breathe” for many minutes earlier, while they were trying to get him seated in the squad car. Then he ASKED to lie on the ground. It’s all in the earlier portion of the video, which was never shown on the news. Then on the ground, he was trying to get back up, and the officer was restraining him; standard protocol hold, while they waited for the ambulance which was on call. The news reports intentionally neglected to show that earlier portion of the video, manipulating the narrative on purpose.

I don’t remember that there was blood on his hands, but I do remember there was blood found on the inside of his car.
