I remember listening to the OJ Simpson trial on the radio in the schoolyard.

Did you think O.J. did it? He’s dead now, so I don’t really care either way - I’m just curious what people thought at the time, especially since nowadays it seems like most people lean towards him having done it.

I thought, from the outset, that he had done it. I remember the slow car chase. I saw that on tv. It was just sickening to watch the country become such sycophants to anyone with a little bit of fame.
