The Goldmans didn’t get justice during the criminal trial, but the family had a second chance by filing a civil case against Simpson for the wrongful death of Ron. This time, it wouldn’t be “the People vs. Orenthal James Simpson”, it would be the Goldman’s name on the lawsuit. Kim speaks with Dan Petrocelli, the Goldman’s attorney for the lesser-known civil trial. Dan reflects on everything from his strategy in the courtroom, to the pressure he felt to win the case. Kim also speaks with Pablo Fenjves, a witness during the criminal trial who was later hired to ghostwrite Simpson’s book, If I Did It – a hypothetical account of the night of the murders. Pablo and Kim discuss how this book came to be and Pablo expresses what he learned as he wrote what was essentially a pseudo admission of guilt with Simpson.

The whole world knows that mf is guilty - it was the first national display of how money can buy the justice system. 25 years later and nothing has changed. Yet here we are acting shocked once again.
I can't help but feel sick that even if he were innocent, how could he say such mean things about a greaving family? Even if being accused, a decent human being would say more to the effect of, "I am innocent, but feel for the pain this family is going through". Not calling Kim a bitch and talking crap about the family. He is a despicable person on every level. There is no way he is innocent and I'm glad the family at least won the civil case.
Ugh when O.J. laughed it sent a chill throughout my entire body. What an evil, evil man.
DId he say Judy's glasses?
The clip where he said, remember this is hypothetical & laughed. Had to add that because he was telling it in first person voice! Such arrogance, I am glad the Goldman's won the civil case. Kim is correct about the legal system, so broken. Guilty walk, innocent people locked away for ages!
"I remember that"...REMEMBER..how does one remember a hypothetical?
