FILE - In this June 15, 1995 file photo, O.J. Simpson, left, grimaces as he tries on one of the leather gloves prosecutors say he wore the night his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were murdered in a Los Angeles courtroom.
Crawford added that the Rodney King case, which made headlines in 1991 after police in Los Angeles were recorded beating an unarmed Black man, had nothing to do with the verdict. But she years after the Simpson verdict, she heard rumors swirling that other jurors allowed the King case to influence the Simpson verdict.Crawford also criticized the prosecution, Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden.
The defense team said Simpson was innocent because the gloves were too small. Then, the infamous quote was born: "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit."Live TV coverage of his arrest after a slow-speed chase in a white Ford Bronco began a stunning fall from grace for the sports hero. The public was then mesmerized by his “trial of the century” on live TV.
