Simpson Trial

After watching the criminal trial, I came to the conclusion that Simpson was guilty with reasonable doubt.  But after the civil trial, I wasn't quite sure if he was guilty or not.  Throughout both cases, I started to believe that the evidence had been tampered with and people had been lying about certain details.  There was a blood trail between the two houses and through DNA tests, it tested to be Simpson's blood.  But the blood could have been placed by police officers, who were trying to set up Simpson because it was found weeks later after the crime happened.  When they took Simpson's blood test, the officer drove around with the sample for a few hours before checking it into the lab with 6mL in the tube.  The person who gave Simpson the blood test originally said that he took 8 mL of his blood but later said it was actually 6 mL that he took.  Officer Furman, had a reputation for disliking minority races, was the first person on the crime scene, who could have placed the glove at Simpson's and helped frame him for the crime.  There are a lot of factors that can add up to make us believe that he was not guilty of the crime and framed by the police.  On the other hand, OJ Simpson said that he never owned a pair of Bruno Magli shoes.  When he was shown a photo of him at the football game with the shoes on, he said it was photoshopped and when shown 30+ more photos of him wearing them, he declared they were photoshopped as well.  Only around 300 pairs of this type of shoe was made and on the scene of the crime, there were footprints left by size 12 Bruno Magli shoes.  There is no way that all the photos were photoshopped, so he had to be lying in some way.  In the end, if some of the evidence in the civil trial was shown in the criminal trial and some of the evidence in the criminal trial was left out, the outcome would have been different.  I believe that both the sentences the juries made were reasonable.
