| Summary Note |
The People volume O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story takes you inside the O.J. Simpson trial, in which Simpson was tried and acquitted on two counts of murder for the 1994 deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman. The series explores the chaotic behind-the-scenes dealings and how a combination of prosecution overconfidence, defence shrewdness and the LAPD's history with the city's African-American community gave a jury what it needed: reasonable doubt. |
