O.J. Simpson Jury (Murder)

Too dense to sit in judgement ......Too ignorant....to understand An intellectual....incapacity ....Too dumb...to comprehend What sworn liars....say...is gospel ....Never question why they deceive Twelve...under-educated jurors Lacking wisdom....to believe Confused.................about the concept Of the term.......................integrity And therefore......see...sand castles crumbling ...Where the mountain....was said to be ...Of those who see....the mountain Might..intellectual incapacity...be the fear .....To the twelve.....who rendered judgement On what the masses........chose not.....to hear The following is the narrator's response to the poet Marilyn Lott's query.....'do you feel O.J. Simpson is innocent of the prosecutorial charge of murder? ' Dear Marilyn, Interestingly...no one previously has asked me that question. Via radio, and television I closely monitored the judicial proceedings from start to finish. What piqued my interest was my acute familiarity with the Los Angeles Brentwood area, gleaned through extensive work-related travel, during the early 1980's. Innocent......hardly! Not guilty.......yes! The prosecution presented ample evidence to convict. Problem is, there were significant flaws within some of that evidence. The circumstance of the 'glove' was critical to the case. One of the major issues confronting the jury was the testimony of Detective Mark Furhman.........and the fact that he lied during its presentation. That falsehood was not related to a material fact of the case.....but...a lie nontheless. This turn of events, amongst others, created serious pause in the minds of the jurors....in terms of his overall credibility.....as the defense had raised troubling questions in that regard! The jury, under its burden, rendered the only possible verdict.....it honestly could. Not guilty! Again......innocent......hardly! Acted alone.........doubtful! My friend, this is my take......and thanks for asking....... JBE
