I was a Junior in high school doing homework in my bedroom when this happened. I'm not sure I got much homework done or did it correctly because I remember being glued to the TV.

Simmons had an awesome discussion about the OJ trial with Chris Connelly on his podcast. In short, Bill made a pretty interesting point that had this happened in present day, it would almost be impossible for OJ to have been found innocent.

With the way we consume news every minute, the internet, it would have been impossible to find a neutral jury that hadn't been exposed to almost every ounce of evidence without any preconceived notions.

I was 11 when this happened. My dad and his neigbor buddies were at the house. I knew who OJ was because I remembered him as an NFL sideline reporter for NBC and always seen highlights of his days at USC everytime my UW Huskies played USC.
