    Essentially nobody now, there has been decades of right wing spin trying to make everyone forget just how badly the LAPD compromised the case with insane overt racism and mishandling evidence. The reason OJ Simpson was found not guilty wasn’t because the jury was hypnotized or just wanted to let him go, it was because of police misconduct.

      DNA evidence was also very new, and wasn’t trusted by the larger population yet.
      Oddly enough, there’s reason to doubt DNA evidence from that era for not being robust enough
