“If the glove doesn’t fit, you must acquit!”*

(*The glove in evidence being the exact make and size the defendant habitually wore, and haven shrunken from being soaked in blood and then dried, and the defendant wearing cotton gloves while softly “trying” to put the glove in evidence on.)

For anyone too young to remember — is there anyone too young to remember?

Yes, yes there is. I was going over the Bill of Rights in my US history class with high school sophomores and used the OJ trial extensively for examples. (His If I did it memoir was great for explaining double jeopardy.) Anyway I mentioned Kato Kaelin and was quickly met with cries of “who?!” and completely blank stares.

He sure did. The thing I remember most about the trial is the unusual Bruno Magli shoes he wore and how evidence was found that those shoes were worn by SOMEBODY at the scene of the crime.
