It’s a pretty common practice. She didn’t need any money from the guy but she needs acknowledgment that she won the case. In order to show that she won she needed to be rewarded something. It’s the same principle behind some CEOs only taking a $1 salary or some people giving away certain ideas or items. Giving it away for $0 would be considered charity which is a different set of paperwork but selling for $1 means an actual business transaction happened.

The OJ trial's "if the gloves fit, you must acquit" defense is utter bogus to me. Looking at it now or at least several years after the trial, the leather gloves would have shrunk from not only the blood that was on them and drying out, but also after they were cleaned by processing it and allowing it to dry. There was also a nifty rumor going around saying that OJ was doing hand exercises to bulk up his hands to ensure that didn't fit as purposed by his legal team. I'm inclined to believe that the gloves shrank due to the moisture and drying them out, thus shrinking them. So if the prosecution made note of that then it would have been a different outcome. Anyone that knows leather will know that you don't want too much water or liquid to get on leather and then drying it out.

4:23 Oooh! I remember my HS forensics teacher telling us this case! It was a foundational turn in the forensics classifications, as tracing threads to the murderer was very new. He bludgeoned his family with an ice pick (which was promptly found near the home). The scariest thing is, when he was caught, he said, “I didn’t think you guys would figure it out.” That to me says he killed his family to test something, to see if he could get away with it just cause. So freaky! Another interesting fact about how they caught OJ Simpson: the bloody shoe prints design wasn’t anywhere in the catalogue investigators had. Luckily, one guy did some digging and found the design matched that of an uncommon, expensive custom shoe that was purchased outside of the country.

[@MegCazalet]

He was high on speed and had not slept for like 30 hours or something nuts. One daughter wet her parents’ bed, on his side of the bed, and it set him off. (He had a notorious explosive anger.) There’s an excellent book called Fatal Vision by a journalist who’d been embedded in his defense team and then decided after seeing the evidence that he was too obviously guilty he couldn’t support his side anymore. It puts forward the best theory of what happened based on the evidence. FYI, you don’t bludgeon someone with an ice pick. There was bludgeoning involved, but by a piece of wood, iirc. The ice pick was used to stab. He told everyone four hippies came in shouting “Acid is groovy” and he fought them off after they’d killed his family, but he sustained barely any wounds. Thing is, the Manson Murders were written about in a magazine on his coffee table, and it could’ve easily given the idea to blame hippies. His father-in-law doggedly fought to finally get him convicted in a criminal trial, which was incredibly moving. It’s a tough case, emotionally. If you’re into true crime, you would love the book Fatal Vision, and the follow up Final Vision that even further explains the evidence.

Sure, except that Paul Prediger was legally allowed to possess a firearm in Wisconsin on the night of the shooting. He did not have any felony convictions that would prevent him from carrying and the gun was not concealed. Not that the concealed bit mattered since he did in fact have a valid CCW at the time (even though the cops lied to him and said it was expired). The Wisconsin CCW was issued on 1/10/2018 and did not expire until 1/10/2023, the shooting happened in August 2020 which is between those two dates. If he had any criminal history that barred him from owning a firearm then the Wisconsin DOJ would not have have issued him a CCW, that's simply common sense.

Smoking Guns can save trial and your life. Without it, Johnny Depp would eventually loss and the ski guy would have been a millionaire.

[@rymilexum8408]

And an innocent man would have been in prison for killing 2 people on Brentwood.

[@bluepower1177]

lol Johnny depp was not completely innocent in all of that. I will stand by him to this day 🤙🏼

[@FungiRy91]

Can also get someone off of murder as this video proved. 😂

[@davebrown8544]

Bit disingenuous here, Alex Jones didn’t have a trial, the judge found him guilty without one, there was a hearing on damages. You missed the important bit in the Rittenhouse trial too where Gage admitted on the stand pulling his gun on Rittenhouse.

[@Y2Kev5]

The Murdaugh case would have had a different outcome had the clerk of the court not interjected herself into proceedings by telling members of the jury that he was guilty. Ridiculous that wasn’t overturned at appeal or that she wasn’t charged herself for jury tampering.

[@camronmoses8956]

'If the glove don't fit you must aquit' is one if the dumbest arguments in history.

[@elvistwatty]

At this point doesn't matter. OJ got off

[@christigmc]

I remember on a Discovery Channel show a PI getting a pair of gloves made of the same material as OJ’s gloves. Fit him no problem. He then dipped them in beef blood. They shrunk and it was like seeing OJ put them on all over again. In hindsight, I don’t know if this technology existed at the time, find the make and size of the gloves. Order a new pair and have OJ try them on.

[@AwesomeFantasyXI]

Gonna be kinda hard to do now my man

[@amyraszipovits810]

If I remember correctly the glove maker said they would bot have shrank.

[@kspeed419]

Ngl the clip of Murdoch mysteries was on point.

[@randallzercherjr.604]

OJ wore the same gloves when broadcasting a football game too.

[@tylerlittle499]

Everyone knows OJ did it

[@redgringrumboldt8983]

The jurors in the OJ Simpson trial said that had the lawyers NOT had him put the gloves on, they would've assumed they were his and that they actually fit him! There was a receipt for those gloves, purchased by Nicole in New York! Who else could've owned them and committed the murders? 🤦‍♂️

[@jgottigunnzxl8653]

That rittenhouse trial was an injustice

[@hannahlowe794]

I remember watching a 20/20 or a Dateline about the Murdaugh case. When I heard that tape with Alex referring to the dog, I immediately knew his defense was finished. He was there, he was guilty, he did it: all because he called out to his dog.

[@branak]

Missed opportunity in the Kyle case, the "victim" confessed only being shot at when he pointed the gun at Kyle

[@TCHrulez]

but the gloves clearly fit

[@javieremoya]

Remember, if you commit a crime, just take a different glove size 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@jacklow9611]

If O.J. Simpson had been told to take off the other glove, the glove might have fit.

[@CARL_093]

amber humiliated her self and made her self a joke

[@bernardomello842]

The ski guy posting on facebook…such a boomer

[@BoostedKota]

It’s the fact OJ wore those same gloves on national tv during a Monday night football game where he was commentator

[@marybuster5349]

Don't know why Amber thought she was going to win. She had no incident. JD had so many incidents

[@jessice293]

The Gaige Groscoits testimony was so bad for the prosecution!

[@ConstitutionalConservative1776]

Except the fact it was self defense. Remember what started the mob chasing him? They fired first.

[@markelliott9737]

Yeah, the prosecution face palmed when he answered "Yes" to the question "So Rittenhouse only fired when you raised your gun at him?"

[@partradio8]

Holmes and Alex Jones deserve life sentences in my book.

[@robertasgar6387]

That's why you're not a judge LMAO

[@ArtistFormerlyKnownAsShitlord]

You deserve professional help in my book.

[@stephenmiller2337]

Alex Jones should be forced to sell every last asset that he has. The fact that this lying clown hasn't paid a single dollar to the families is disgraceful.

[@joeg5414]

For what? A life sentence because you don't like what he said?

[@Astrobrant2]

Re. Alex Jones: how much of those judgments has he paid?

[@edflintlaw]

Class of 83 University of Utah law school intramural team was called, no kidding: The Bundy Bottom Biters.

[@jtl-en4yx]

The reason Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted was that it was proven that the rioters attacked him first, and Gage G pulled a gun on Kyle before Kyle shot him, and Gage admitted this on the stand which was the actual "smoking gun."

[@PrinceIsot]

Imagine wanting to put a 17 year old in prison for defending himself from a child predator 😂 holy shit

[@user-zg1wz8fh8f]

One who was just released from the hospital hours earlier after spending a week there for a suicide attempt, a fact hidden from the jury

[@ReelNinja1]

Surprised they forgot about the murder trial of the Curb Your Enthusiasm documentary. A man was accused of murder but claimed he attended a baseball game with his daughter. The time and date of the murder, a documentary for the HBO series Curb Your Enthusiasm was being filmed and the man was exonerated. They made a documentary about it called Long Shot

[@williamflagle2018]

I’m surprised the Duke Lacrosse case isn’t on here. Particularly the point in the one hearing where the DNA lab head admitted to making a deal with the DA

[@PrinceIsot]

All the video evidence was going to assure Rittenhouse walked. I want to thank all the commies there that day that had their phones out 😂

[@PrinceIsot]

Yup just remember the Kyle Rittenhouse case, you can't attack someone that's putting out a fire you started and you definitely shouldn't do it if that person is armed 😂

[@TruthyToo]

Here's another one: Menendez brothers trial where they were caught testifying they looked at pistols in a gun store that did not sell pistols at that time.

[@mikall1]

The gloves would have fit if OJ had taken his arthritis medication that relived his joint swelling.

[@cmoneill]

Imagine defending yourself from an armed mob attack in the middle of a riot and having half of your country turn against you for politics. Disgusting

[@greathoonta3461]

I don’t think the tapes were what won Johnny the case, it was much more just watching Amber lie to their faces (literally as she presented her answers to them instead of the lawyers)while Johnny was very open and apologetic for his wrong.

[@muso248]

Plus the rest of the evidence in Depp v Heard

[@garrettjvb]

Omg I remember all the women on Twitter doing insane mental gymnastics to defend Amber Heard. Meanwhile, nobody cared about Gwyneth Paltrow. Or really any other woman at the moment. Total solidarity lol Believe all women, amiright?

[@heathernks8]

I don't remember "all" the women on Twitter defending Heard." There was a *small minority* of us who believed she was abused AND abusive; that the RELATIONSHIP was toxic all the way around. It blows my mind how we can even ADMIT we're in the minority, but misogynists are still so threatened by that, and blow our numbers out of proportion.😂 We weren't wrong, as evidenced by the VERDICTS. Not to mention the texts that were released after the trial. But that's just thinking dialectically; realizing that two things can be true at once. We don't all suffer from black & white thinking where we claim "ALL" people did something.😏

[@munkustrap2]

As a woman who is a survivor of domestic abuse...PLEASE do not say all women were defending that lying pos. She clearly abused him.

[@pooky-changaming4089]

@@munkustrap2Agreed-SHE was the abuser here. And the damage is done-her career will most likely never recover.

[@kengojoe2444]

For Kyle no mass shooter puts their gun down when the police show and with hands up, i always believed it was self defense and have seen full footage of what was recorded

[@billycake5830]

so the guy pointing his gun at Kyle wouldn't be considered self defense?

[@_taxman_]

imagine the psychopathy of Elizabeth Holmes to get pregnant just as a ploy to gain a jury's sympathy. Well played and well timed, Liz.

[@LLLLLB]

If only the prosecution had pointed out he was wearing gloves beneath the gloves 🙄

[@riffbw]

Rittenhouse won that trail hene Gage admitted that he didnt get shot until he pointed his gun at Kyle. He confirmed that it was aelf defense when he was shot. Gage sunk the prosecution on that one.
