8 Days of O.J. - "THE LAPD ON TRIAL: When Mark Fuhrman Became the Real Defendant" - Day 3
Published 6 months ago
Description
Reid Carter examines March 1995 - the month Mark Fuhrman went from hero detective to racist villain, handing Johnnie Cochran the race card on a silver platter. F. Lee Bailey's devastating cross-examination about the N-word destroys Fuhrman's credibility with one lie. Evidence collection mistakes become conspiracy theories as Barry Scheck turns criminalist Dennis Fung into a bumbling incompetent. The EDTA preservative theory suggests blood was planted from test tubes. Thirty-one days of watching the prosecution's case collapse as the defense successfully puts the LAPD on trial instead of O.J. Simpson. March proved that when you can't attack the evidence, attack the people who collected it - and sometimes that works better than the truth.
