Nothing is without cost. The founding fathers of the United States passed a bill of rights to prevent future government tyranny, stipulating that citizens can legally hold coercion, so there are frequent shootings in the United States. The US government has also repeatedly proposed gun control! But they were all rejected, and the gun-owners considered it the price of freedom. The same was true in the Simpson case. The United States released the recognized "murderer" because of insufficient evidence because of the principle of presumption of innocence and innocence. Some people say that the U.S. justice is shameful because of this, but some people think that this is the justice of the law.
The TV series brought this big case of the century after 22 years back into our sight, and we can see the position of the crew-they think Simpson is the murderer! It is such a stance director who objectively reflects how the American judicial system allows a heinous person to escape legal sanctions in order to demonstrate the justice of the law. But it is precisely because of this position that the crime story is more classic.
The prosecution believes that he is sure of winning, wearing blood gloves, DNA socks and other evidence. Because of their preconceived judgments, they believed that the evidence was enough to send Simpson to jail. It was obvious that they did not pay much attention to the trial and did not communicate well. And blindly confident, this failure was also expected.
As Shapiro, the core figure of Simpson's lawyers dream team, said: "We are not glorious to win." And Shapiro kept asking Simpson to sign a plea agreement, but because of this position, Shapiro was marginalized from the core. . Instead, the race card Johnny becomes the core.
In fact, the two sides are full of conflicts, and the prosecution Clark and Dutton do not buy each other. Clark refused to listen to advice and insisted on using problem agents, because the evidence would convince the jury, and then the nigga door also pushed the prosecution into a desperate situation. Dutton wanted to lock Simpson with his gloves, but he was dismissed innocently when Johnny's gloves were inappropriate! One fatal mistake, and the lawsuit that must be won is lost! The Dream Dream team also fought frequently because of different positions. Johnny played the race card because Simpson was not guilty. Shapiro told the media that he would not play race cards! He believed that Simpson was guilty from beginning to end and advocated a plea agreement. After the lawsuit was won, Shapiro and Simpson estranged. It's just that the lawsuit was won without any mistakes outside.
The drama focuses on restoring the role of this judicial system rather than exploring the truth. The prosecution and the defense went from the rationality of the evidence, the qualifications of witnesses to the game of jury members, to the black and white racial discrimination, which obviously made people feel that the lawsuit was biased. Everyone pays attention to whether Simpson killed someone, no one pays attention to the victim. Especially when it turned out that Simpson was not guilty, the victim's family looked sad, and even listened to the radio in the car and heard the black celebration. The victim’s family turned off the broadcast, and I don’t know how the family’s mood is at this moment.
The United States calls it a major case of the century, but the results are not long in nine months, largely because of representativeness and fairness. Most people in the US media investigation in 1994 believed that Simpson killed someone, but would you be convicted if you were a jury? Most people were silent, and some resolutely said no. Just as the members of the jury claiming innocence said: "Perhaps you think Simpson is guilty, damn it, I think so too! But the prosecution can't prove this!" It is enough to show that the Americans separate justice and emotion. A law that does not protect the bad guys will not protect the good guys either. Because before conviction, everyone is a citizen with full capacity for behavior. The trial judge Ito was not irrational because of the insult to his wife in the video. Everyone is sensible enough, the real murderer can't do justice, justice must be defended, this is the essence of American jury law. As the Americans said, the jury system is not perfect, but there is no better system to replace it. This is the price of justice. Some people say that Simpson spends money to buy justice, but it is not illegal or criminal, is it?
Longing for a distant place, inevitably endure loneliness. Longing for freedom must endure harm. Longing for the justice of the law will inevitably endure the escape of the bad guys. However, many acts of injustice will kill themselves. In 2008, Simpson was finally sentenced to 33 years for robbery and 8 years without parole! Maybe he can see this classic soon.
When I first saw the crime story, I thought it was a murder story like Hannibal Jin Funan, but it turned out not to be. It is a classic story about the legal system. I prefer this good storytelling drama to the hotly hyped Crown and Western World!
