There was a vast degree of denial in just about all the aspects of the OJ Simpson trial. OJ got a LOT of sympathy, some of it possibly deserved, simply because he was a one-time sports hero, and an icon for Americans of African descent.
But merely being an icon is not enough, when the evidence becomes overwhelming in the eyes of the public, as witness the huge public relations hit that Bill Cosby has taken over recent months, as additional revelations have come out about his abuse of various females, and the means by which he “seduced” them.
There was a great deal of evidence in the Brown-Simpson murder that was either compromised, or simply “disappeared”, as nobody ever found the knife, or maybe they did, it was retrieved and disposed of before the police could take it in for evidence. I strongly suspect Robert Kardashian was involved with that “cleanup” operation. Similar deal with the blood-soaked socks.
I agree that Kardashian probably disposed of the knife and most of OJs bloody clothing.
The blood soaked socks were found by the LAPD and were used as evidence in the trial. The issue with those was that the defense accused the police of planting them and they made a pretty decent case that they might have.
I have no doubt OJ committed the murders, but I do think it is quite possible that police did plant or tamper with some evidence to try to help the case,
Cosby was targeting white women,because he hated white people.
