0:04:48 > 0:04:50The female...

0:04:50 > 0:04:54is Nicole Brown Simpson. She's the property owner.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56The male is unidentified.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Lot of blood.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00It has a clean heel print.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02There's also a glove, hat and an envelope.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Down that path is a set of bloody shoe prints.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07They exit through the rear.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09He's bleeding from the left hand.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Nothing's disturbed. It's probably not a robbery.

0:05:27 > 0:05:28- Mark?- Yeah?

0:05:28 > 0:05:32We've got to withdraw from the case. They kicked it upstairs.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- To who?- Detective Vannatter. Where are the kids?

0:05:35 > 0:05:36They're being held at West LA.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Have we ID'd the male?

0:05:38 > 0:05:40What about OJ Simpson? Anybody notify him yet?

0:05:40 > 0:05:42We don't want a Belushi situation.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Can't have him learning about this from his TV.

0:05:44 > 0:05:45There's no media here.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48This is a double homicide in Brentwood. They'll show.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50So, anybody have Simpson's address?

0:05:50 > 0:05:54I know where OJ lives. I'm Detective Mark Fuhrman, West LA Homicide.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57I was there years ago. Family dispute.

0:05:57 > 0:05:58It's a few minutes away.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05I don't think I've ever been up here before.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14BUZZER

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Car's in the driveway and the lights are on. Someone's home.

0:06:20 > 0:06:21I'm going to look around.

0:06:23 > 0:06:24Let me try again.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26BUZZER

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Hey, you should see this.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52We're going to need a criminalist, to confirm that that's blood.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Why don't they answer the door?

0:08:19 > 0:08:22I just kind of... I live back here.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Sir, we need to speak to Mr Simpson. Where is he?

0:08:26 > 0:08:30Oh, wait. He, um, he's in Chicago.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52I have some bad news.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55Your ex-wife Nicole Simpson has been killed.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58'Oh, my God!

0:08:58 > 0:09:00'Nicole has been killed?'

0:09:00 > 0:09:03Back there, there was this loud bang on my air conditioner.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06Seriously, I thought my walls were going to fall down.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11'Oh, my God, is sh... Is she dead?'

0:09:11 > 0:09:12Yes.

0:09:12 > 0:09:13'I'm so sorry, Mr Simpson.'

0:09:15 > 0:09:18I'll be on the first flight out of Chicago tomorrow.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20I'll be back in LA tomorrow.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22REPLACES HANDSET

0:09:28 > 0:09:30QUIET, RAGGED BREATHING

0:09:53 > 0:09:54What is it?

0:09:55 > 0:09:57He didn't ask how she died.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02Got to show you something.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51- I hope you make it till lunch. - I'll be hungry then!

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Yeah, you should've thought about that.

0:10:53 > 0:10:54- PHONE RINGS - Yeah.

0:10:54 > 0:10:55Mama!

0:11:00 > 0:11:04- Mom!- Boys, please go get your stuff.

0:11:04 > 0:11:05What have you got?

0:11:05 > 0:11:09We've got two victims in Brentwood on Bundy Drive. It's pretty brutal.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Brentwood? Nobody gets killed in Brentwood.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15Well, one of the victims is the ex-wife of OJ Simpson.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Who?- 'Marcia, OJ Simpson. You know, the football player.'

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Yeah, I have no idea who you're talking about.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Marcia, OJ - The Juice? He's a movie star.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24He's in The Naked Gun movie.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27'He's the guy in the, uh, the, uh, Hertz commercials.'

0:11:27 > 0:11:28Oh, yeah, that guy.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31Huh, well, will you just tell me what happened, please? Come here.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Let me tie your shoe.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35'Well, there's a lot of blood at the murders.'

0:11:35 > 0:11:39Here at OJ's house, there appears to be blood on one of his vehicles

0:11:39 > 0:11:41and we can see drops of blood leading into the house.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43'There are also two bloody gloves -

0:11:43 > 0:11:46'one at each location - that appear to match.'

0:11:46 > 0:11:47Wow.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51What were you doing at Simpson's?

0:11:51 > 0:11:54We were here notifying a family member.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57We just didn't realise he turned out to be a suspect.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00Well, it sounds like you have enough to arrest him. This is major.

0:12:00 > 0:12:01No, no, no. One step at a time.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Right now, I just want a search warrant.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Just wanted a prosecutor's opinion.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Well, this prosecutor says, go get him.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27- Thank you.- Good morning, Marcia.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29- Good morning. Have we heard from the LAPD?- Uh-huh.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32- What time does Simpson return? - He lands at LAX around noon.- Uh-huh.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Oh, Westwood Flower Garden called.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36They want to know if the baby tulips can be peach, not pink.

0:13:36 > 0:13:39Your lips are moving, but I don't know what they're saying.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41- Lynn's baby shower.- Oh, Jesus!

0:13:41 > 0:13:42Today at lunch.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44What time am I supposed to be going?

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Marcia, you're not going, you're throwing it.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Well, not anymore. I'll tell her.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51She'll understand.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54- And Gordon's lawyer called. He... - I don't have time for this today.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56- Got it.- Sorry.- Mm-hmm.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58- Tell Gil I'll be right over.- Uh-huh.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01- What time did he fly to Chicago? - 11.45 pm.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- What time do you ballpark the murders?- Between 10 and 11.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07The male, Ronald Goldman, worked in an Italian restaurant nearby.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10He was 25. Actor/waiter.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13He left at just before ten.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16Wow. You think OJ had time to do it?

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- Well, he is fast.- Let's stay on point. What about motive?

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Don't know. Ex-wife with a younger man?

0:14:22 > 0:14:25"A warm bath and candles." Was he her boyfriend?

0:14:25 > 0:14:27It's unclear. He was returning glasses that were left

0:14:27 > 0:14:29in the restaurant by her mother.

0:14:29 > 0:14:31- "By her mother." That sounds ridiculous.- I agree.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33Never heard a restaurant offering that.

0:14:33 > 0:14:34KNOCK ON DOOR

0:14:34 > 0:14:37In any case, we can assume that the killer walked in

0:14:37 > 0:14:38on the two of them... Thank you.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41..or that Goldman walked in on the killing.

0:14:50 > 0:14:51Crime scene photos.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01Oh, Jesus.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04These are really vicious.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08She's practically decapitated.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14I just can't picture OJ Simpson doing it.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16I met him once at a golfing event.

0:15:16 > 0:15:17He's the nicest guy.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Yeah, I met him. He's charming.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23He's not so terrific. Simpson has a prior.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Five years ago, he pled no contest after he beat up Nicole.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28He never even did his community service.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30He just got out, celebrity-style.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33He raised money for Camp Ronald McDonald.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- Sorry.- Excuse me, can I get through, please?

0:15:55 > 0:15:56No, sir.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Well, uh, OJ's expecting me. I'm his friend, Robert Kardashian.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01- I'm sure I'm on the list. - There's no list.

0:16:04 > 0:16:05Howard!

0:16:05 > 0:16:08Howard! Howard!

0:16:08 > 0:16:09I know him.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11It's OK, officer. He's with me.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14- Can you believe it? - It's like a circus here.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16I came as soon as I heard. Kris called me.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19- She and Nicole were going to have lunch today.- I know, it's horrible.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22- How is he? - He's doing OK. He's trying.

0:16:22 > 0:16:23- Where is he? - He's on his way.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- I'm going to need you to step back.- Is that him?

0:16:27 > 0:16:29OJ? OJ!

0:16:29 > 0:16:33- Sir, sir... Back... - BANGING ON VEHICLE

0:16:33 > 0:16:36OJ. OJ! It's me.

0:16:36 > 0:16:37Shit.

0:16:37 > 0:16:38Back up!

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- I am his lawyer.- Stay back, sir.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48HE EXHALES

0:16:59 > 0:17:01What's happening? Why are you here?

0:17:01 > 0:17:04Mr Simpson, we're here because of the death of your ex-wife.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06We found a trail of blood.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10A trail?

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Aw, man.

0:17:12 > 0:17:13God.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17- Aw, man.- Mr Simpson, let's get away from the cameras.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Let's go around the corner.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28I need you to back away. Sir, you need to step back.

0:17:44 > 0:17:50All right, you fellas want to tell me what happens next?

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Oh.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53What are you doing?

0:17:54 > 0:17:55Howard?

0:17:55 > 0:17:57Whoa, whoa! Slow down here!

0:17:57 > 0:17:58Is that necessary?

0:17:58 > 0:18:01No, it's not. I only wanted him detained.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06Everybody, just calm down. Shit.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09- I'm going through a lot here. - Mr Simpson, I'm very sorry.

0:18:09 > 0:18:10Well...

0:18:10 > 0:18:13But we do have some questions about the death of your ex-wife, Nicole.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17Would you be willing to come down to headquarters? Have a talk?

0:18:17 > 0:18:21OJ, OJ. You don't have to talk to them.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25You're wrong, Howard.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28If I don't talk, it looks like I have something to hide.

0:18:28 > 0:18:32Yes, officer, I'm happy to cooperate.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35Great.

0:18:44 > 0:18:45So, what happens now?

0:18:49 > 0:18:50OJ's a suspect.

0:18:56 > 0:18:57Honey?

0:18:59 > 0:19:02Honey, where's my Hugo Boss?

0:19:02 > 0:19:05I swear that girl hides my clothes. I-I-I got nothing to wear!

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Johnnie.- I got a thousand million things to do today.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11I got to stop by the DA's. Meet with the Taylor family.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Do a TV appearance. So I can't dress too festive.

0:19:14 > 0:19:19- I need to be strong, uplifting. - OK, what about lime green?

0:19:19 > 0:19:21Lime green, that would be exceptional. Except...

0:19:21 > 0:19:23then I got to run out to Neverland.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26MJ's got some new pile of commotion, so I can't wear lime...

0:19:26 > 0:19:27Michael's afraid of that colour.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30I never met someone with so many phobias.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- SHE LAUGHS - Nobody said your job would be easy.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34- All right, what about purple? - Purple?

0:19:34 > 0:19:38Well, that would be fine... No, I don't want to look like no grape.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Afternoon, Chris.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48You finished your investigation of the Taylor shooting?

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Uh, yeah. I didn't want to just send over the report.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53I thought it'd be better if we talked in person.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55- Save your breath, my brother. - Let me explain.

0:19:55 > 0:19:59Come on, I had your job. I know the drill.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02The Police Commission determined the officers acted in self-defence.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04The officers were scared. There were seven of them

0:20:04 > 0:20:06with guns up against one mentally ill woman with a knife.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Johnnie, I tried. You know all they had to claim was that their lives

0:20:09 > 0:20:12- were in danger. - Danger. They shot her in the back.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14You know, it's remarkable to me

0:20:14 > 0:20:17how many black folks get shot in the backside while they attack,

0:20:17 > 0:20:20like they're going back and forwards at the same time.

0:20:20 > 0:20:24John, I wish I could prosecute. I... It's terrible.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Look, if you check the report, you'll see that

0:20:26 > 0:20:29I slipped in that the officers may not have been 100% truthful.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Oh, please! One sentence nobody's going to read makes you feel

0:20:31 > 0:20:34- better about yourself? - What do you expect me to do?!

0:20:34 > 0:20:36You know what we're talking about! Choose a side!

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Look.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46I know your heart is in the right place.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49But these four walls, they, they box you in.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52It's just an endless cycle of bullshit.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55- Can I be honest with you?- Always.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05I hate this place.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09I mean, I hate SID. I'm thinking of quitting.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12Good, now you're finally talking some sense.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14And I know you're capable of more.

0:21:14 > 0:21:20The world needs more black men willing to make a difference.

0:21:20 > 0:21:21That means a lot to me.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25You know, I've always looked to you as a mentor.

0:21:25 > 0:21:26Indeed.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Onward and upward.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34- Now, if you'll excuse me.- Oh.

0:21:34 > 0:21:37I've got to go deliver the bad news to the Taylor family.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40Fortunately, I've got a Plan B.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43I'm going to advise the family to sue the city for police brutality

0:21:43 > 0:21:45and wrongful death.

0:21:45 > 0:21:46See, the way things are sometimes,

0:21:46 > 0:21:50money is the only way to get justice.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Hey, uh, take...

0:22:03 > 0:22:06This is outrageous.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Eight 911 calls.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11The police were called out there eight times.

0:22:11 > 0:22:15Nicole had a bruised face, black eye, bleeding lip.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19OJ broke a windshield with a baseball bat.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21God, the system failed her.

0:22:21 > 0:22:22You can't get so upset.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26You know what really pisses me off? This went on for years.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29All that battering before he was even arrested.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31It's the LAPD and a famous guy.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34- Marcia.- Yeah.

0:22:34 > 0:22:35The tape is here.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40'OJ, when was the last time you saw Nicole?'

0:22:40 > 0:22:44'Yesterday, when we were leaving our daughter's dance recital.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47'It ended at about, uh, 6.30, 6.45, something like that.'

0:22:47 > 0:22:50'And what time did you get back home?'

0:22:50 > 0:22:53Oh, seven something.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56I'm trying to think. Did I leave?

0:22:58 > 0:23:02You know, I had to run and get my daughter, uh, recital flowers.

0:23:02 > 0:23:03HE CHUCKLES

0:23:03 > 0:23:07Then I called my girlfriend Paula, as I headed to her house.

0:23:07 > 0:23:08And Paula wasn't home.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10What, what did he say?

0:23:10 > 0:23:14Did... Did he buy flowers before or after the recital?

0:23:14 > 0:23:16- Did he even go to Paula's house?- Shh.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18'And when did you park your Bronco on Rockingham?'

0:23:18 > 0:23:23Eight something. Seven, eight, nine...

0:23:23 > 0:23:26I don't know. Around that area.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28And then I was sitting with Kato.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30He hadn't done a Jacuzzi, so we went and got a burger.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Seven, eight, nine.

0:23:32 > 0:23:36That's not an answer! Guys, lock him to a time frame.

0:23:36 > 0:23:38Pin him to a version of the story he can't change later.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42And what about your left hand there?

0:23:42 > 0:23:44How did you get that injury?

0:23:44 > 0:23:48Oh, I don't know. Uh... the first time I was in Chicago.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51Yeah, and then I got back to the house,

0:23:51 > 0:23:53and I was running around and, uh, I broke a glass.

0:23:53 > 0:23:54- Oh.- Yeah.

0:23:54 > 0:23:59And then one of your guys just called.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02Uh, actually, uh, uh, I cut it before.

0:24:02 > 0:24:04'Maybe I opened it.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06'But it's no big deal. I bleed all the time.'

0:24:06 > 0:24:08I golf, you know. HE CHUCKLES

0:24:08 > 0:24:10It's always something!

0:24:10 > 0:24:12'Nicks and stuff, yeah.' OJ LAUGHS

0:24:12 > 0:24:13That's it.

0:24:13 > 0:24:14Well, I can't tell.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17Did he cut his hand in Los Angeles or in Chicago?

0:24:17 > 0:24:20How did he injure himself?

0:24:20 > 0:24:21'This is a fiasco.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23'Why did the cops tolerate it?'

0:24:23 > 0:24:25'Cos they're not used to grilling a star. He's The Juice.'

0:24:25 > 0:24:28He rushed more than 2,000 yards in one season.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30I have no idea what that means. But you know what?

0:24:30 > 0:24:33It shouldn't matter. He got away with beating her.

0:24:33 > 0:24:34He is not going to get away with killing her.

0:24:40 > 0:24:41Here, Simpson's blood.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44OK, but you'll have to wait 48 hours.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48- We need to be super cautious if we're running the DNA.- All right.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Why don't they just leave?! I told them all the facts!

0:24:53 > 0:24:56They're acting like I did this or something.

0:24:56 > 0:24:57I didn't kill her!

0:24:57 > 0:24:59We know, Orenthal.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01It's all becoming a big mess!

0:25:01 > 0:25:03It's just shameful. They should let the family mourn.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06- TV:- 'The bodies of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Lyle Goldman...'

0:25:06 > 0:25:09- Juice, you need juice? - Kato, cut that shit out!

0:25:11 > 0:25:13TV CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY

0:25:13 > 0:25:15It's about time, AC.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Sorry, OJ, but that traffic out there is a mother.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22I'm starving. Is there a lot of people out there still?

0:25:22 > 0:25:26Packed, right? This is the cheeseburger?

0:25:26 > 0:25:29- Here... Like that. - Kato, you like them burgers, huh?

0:25:29 > 0:25:31Oh, I love them.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34You told the cops you and I went out for burgers last night, right?

0:25:34 > 0:25:36- Hmm? Yeah. - CLEARS THROAT

0:25:36 > 0:25:38- Mm-hmm.- You did, huh?

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Yeah, yeah. Mm-hm.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42- Good. Cos that's what happened.- Mm-hm.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45See, I need support, y'all! I need lots of support from everybody!

0:25:45 > 0:25:48You've got it, Juice.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51Who called? Any of my friends leave me a message?

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Hey, Dad, it's that shot again.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54TV: 'OJ Simpson in cuffs...'

0:25:54 > 0:25:57Oh, see, now, that pisses me off!

0:25:57 > 0:26:00They got The Juice in handcuffs! I was handcuffed for five seconds!

0:26:00 > 0:26:02They ain't got no other footage of me?

0:26:02 > 0:26:04- This situation is worrisome. - What's the lawyer say?

0:26:04 > 0:26:08I don't know! I don't even know where the hell Howard is.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10- Hey, where's Howard, AC?! - I, I couldn't find him.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13- Well, find him, man, come on! - We've tried.- I'm drowning over here!

0:26:13 > 0:26:16- OJ, you need, you need your counsel. - Robert, are you a lawyer?

0:26:16 > 0:26:19Yes. Well, I used to be, but not criminal.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21OJ, is it, is it impolite to ask?

0:26:21 > 0:26:24- No, man, talk to me!- I mean, what, what is Howard's game plan?

0:26:24 > 0:26:26I don't know what Howard's... That's what I keep telling you!

0:26:26 > 0:26:29- Why'd he let you get cuffed?! - That's what I'm saying!

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Why was I cuffed, and now it's all over TV!

0:26:31 > 0:26:32Why did he let you get interviewed?

0:26:32 > 0:26:34Whatever they asked me, I talked to them!

0:26:34 > 0:26:35I told them I had nothing to hide!

0:26:35 > 0:26:38What do I got to hide?! Juice ain't got nothing to hide!

0:26:38 > 0:26:40Why in the hell were you in there alone?

0:26:41 > 0:26:43I don't know, man. I don't...

0:26:43 > 0:26:45These are good questions.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49So you're saying I need a new lawyer?

0:26:49 > 0:26:52- I'm saying your lawyer should be here.- That's what I'm saying...

0:26:52 > 0:26:53DOOR OPENS

0:26:55 > 0:26:57Oh, come here. Come here.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Daddy's going to take care of things.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05- TV:- 'Also, new reports that a bloodstained glove...'

0:27:05 > 0:27:07So, Brando came to me, weeping.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10He said, "My son is facing life in prison.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12"Bob, can you help?"

0:27:12 > 0:27:14So I'm busy, but it's Marlon,

0:27:14 > 0:27:17so I go to the DA and explain you cannot prove premeditation.

0:27:17 > 0:27:21Guns go off. Cut a deal, everyone's happy.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24His son pled to manslaughter. He's out in five.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29- Oh, look. Look.- Oh, enough, Bob, come on. I don't want to be late.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31We have tickets to the premiere of I Love Trouble

0:27:31 > 0:27:34Hang on. I want to say hi to Ovitz. Mike!

0:27:34 > 0:27:35Excuse me, Mr Shapiro?

0:27:35 > 0:27:39Sorry to bother you, sir, but you have an emergency phone call.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41Emergency?

0:27:52 > 0:27:54Robert Shapiro here. Who is this?

0:27:54 > 0:27:56'Bob, I'm glad I found you.'

0:27:56 > 0:27:57Who?

0:27:57 > 0:27:59It's OJ Simpson.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05LIFT DINGS

0:28:05 > 0:28:07We're putting off filing until we get the blood test.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09Obviously, this sort of makes me crazy.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11It's ridiculous that he's back in the house.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14He could be destroying evidence, intimidating witnesses...

0:28:14 > 0:28:16- Marcia...- I think we put our best witnesses in front of

0:28:16 > 0:28:19a grand jury this week. Block them from the defence.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22Marcia. I want to pair you with Bill.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25This case is too big for one prosecutor. A partner'll be good.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26Bill runs a little cooler than you.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28You're perfect for the case because you care,

0:28:28 > 0:28:30but I think this'll be useful.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32You know, little checks and balances.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34I...understand.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36And, frankly, you're going to be drowning in paper.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39There's no way we're going to keep up with the defence's resources.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42Well, nobody is more organised than Bill.

0:28:42 > 0:28:43I'm here to help.

0:28:45 > 0:28:46OK.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50HE CLEARS THROAT

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Yeah, things are hopping. But I'm not really a part of it.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59You know, since OJ broke, meetings have been cancelled,

0:28:59 > 0:29:04everyone's tripping over themselves to get on the celebrity case.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06You know, I was thinking I'd take a long weekend.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08Come up and visit you guys.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11- HE LAUGHS - Ah, trust me.

0:29:11 > 0:29:13Nobody'll miss me.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33Believe me, Howard Weitzman is a very capable lawyer,

0:29:33 > 0:29:36but I agree with you.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38You can't afford any more missteps.

0:29:38 > 0:29:42In a situation like this, you have to stay ahead of the events.

0:29:42 > 0:29:46It's the same thing I told Johnny Carson when I represented him.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49You have to hire the best experts, the top investigators.

0:29:49 > 0:29:53- Already?- Yes. And you have to stay ahead of the leads to make sure

0:29:53 > 0:29:55they don't grow stale.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57And just so you know, the DA is going to throw

0:29:57 > 0:29:59all their resources at this.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02They have a very bad rep for losing cases to the rich and famous.

0:30:02 > 0:30:05They're going to do everything they can to win.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07OJ has a very good relationship with the cops.

0:30:07 > 0:30:11They come over for tennis sometimes, uh, Saturday pool parties.

0:30:11 > 0:30:16That's useful. That's good to know. You know, I wonder...

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Rob, what do you think of the idea that you join the team, too?

0:30:19 > 0:30:21You could reactivate your license,

0:30:21 > 0:30:23and you might provide a special insight to us.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27Absolutely. I think that's a great idea. Bobby understands me.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29We've been friends forever.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32When Kris and I broke up, The Juice was there for me every night.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34I'd do anything for this man.

0:30:34 > 0:30:38Good. OK. OK. Now, there's one final thing.

0:30:38 > 0:30:42There's something I need to talk to OJ about privately.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44- Do you mind, Rob?- No. Of course.

0:30:57 > 0:31:00Any time that I take on a new criminal case,

0:31:00 > 0:31:02I always ask the client a question.

0:31:02 > 0:31:07Now, I won't be judgmental, but I think it's crucial that

0:31:07 > 0:31:10the attorney and the client are truthful with each other.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15So, anything you tell me is completely confidential

0:31:15 > 0:31:17and will never leave this room.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21So, OJ...did you do it?

0:31:24 > 0:31:25No.

0:31:30 > 0:31:31I loved her.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43Don't you hate having to see lawyers?

0:31:43 > 0:31:45Just makes me sick to my stomach.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50What is going on?

0:31:50 > 0:31:52Gordon isn't accepting the proposed terms of divorce.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55- He wants to go to trial.- Goddamn it! I don't have time for this!

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Marcia, you filed on Thursday. You knew what you were getting into.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Well, I didn't know OJ Simpson was going to kill his wife on Sunday.

0:32:01 > 0:32:04You have a lot on your plate. Divorce usually isn't so simple.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06I know that. I've done this before.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09Then you know how emotionally draining it is.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11This could go on for a year.

0:32:11 > 0:32:14As your friend, I'm worried for you. You're taking on too much.

0:32:30 > 0:32:31Brothers and sisters,

0:32:31 > 0:32:34today's guest is the esteemed Dennis Schatzman, lead writer

0:32:34 > 0:32:38for the black-owned Los Angeles Sentinel Dennis, how are you?

0:32:38 > 0:32:43Todd, I'm not good. I am disgusted with how OJ Simpson's been treated

0:32:43 > 0:32:44by the LAPD.

0:32:44 > 0:32:48He has not been charged with a crime and yet they handcuffed him.

0:32:48 > 0:32:53They put him chains. Now, let me ask you a question.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55- You remember Jeffrey Dahmer? - Oh, yes.

0:32:55 > 0:32:59Jeffrey Dahmer was a mass murderer. Jeffrey Dahmer was a cannibal.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01He, literally, ate people.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03'How many times you see Jeffrey Dahmer in handcuffs?'

0:33:03 > 0:33:04'Come on, now.'

0:33:04 > 0:33:07'The black/white double standard endures, brother.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09'Daryl Gates and his nefarious chokehold,

0:33:09 > 0:33:11'guns drawn on Olympic legend Al Joyner,

0:33:11 > 0:33:14'the Rodney King verdict, as affirmed by an all-white jury.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16'Of course, we rioted.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18The LAPD's war against African-Americans has got to

0:33:18 > 0:33:20'be stopped.'

0:33:20 > 0:33:23'Whoo, brother, you touched a nerve. You got the phone lines lit up.'

0:33:23 > 0:33:25All right.

0:33:37 > 0:33:41Look, I ain't been this popular since the riots.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Famous black man in trouble, the TV shows go down the list.

0:33:44 > 0:33:45Jesse, Sharpton, me.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49- Oh, are you on the case? - No, no. My plate is full.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52I'm busy with a single mother been shot nine times by LAPD.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54- Nine times?- Nine times.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56- Oh... - Tragic, typical, but it ain't sexy,

0:33:56 > 0:33:59so they kick it to the back of the newspaper.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01- RADIO:- 'His lawyer Robert Shapiro is heading his defence team.'

0:34:01 > 0:34:04- Robert Shapiro. - HE CHUCKLES

0:34:04 > 0:34:05- BELL RINGS - You know him?

0:34:05 > 0:34:08Yeah, he's great if you smash your Rolls, drunk on Mulholland,

0:34:08 > 0:34:09but he's a plea bargain guy.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11He ain't no litigator.

0:34:11 > 0:34:14- What if OJ asked you to help? - Me? Oh, no. No. I like to win.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16This case is a loser.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18Three, two...

0:34:19 > 0:34:22Well, thank you very much for having me.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25First and foremost, we should all extend our prayers

0:34:25 > 0:34:26to the Simpson family.

0:34:31 > 0:34:32You saw him?

0:34:32 > 0:34:36Yeah. Sunday night at about, uh, 10.45.

0:34:36 > 0:34:37I was driving to the, uh,

0:34:37 > 0:34:41Souplantation on San Vicente, they have amazing frozen yogurt,

0:34:41 > 0:34:43and then, all of a sudden, just out of nowhere,

0:34:43 > 0:34:47a white vehicle just goes screeching up Bundy and it was totally crazy.

0:34:47 > 0:34:49It ran right through the red.

0:34:49 > 0:34:50And me and this other car,

0:34:50 > 0:34:54we just swerved so that we wouldn't crash into it, and it honked at me.

0:34:54 > 0:34:56Like I did something wrong!

0:34:56 > 0:34:58TYRES SCREECH AND HORN HONKS

0:34:58 > 0:35:00Move your damn car! Move it!

0:35:00 > 0:35:01TYRES SCREECH

0:35:03 > 0:35:04The driver was OJ Simpson.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12How did you feel that night?

0:35:14 > 0:35:15I was nervous.

0:35:15 > 0:35:21Um, at 10.40, I buzzed the gate, but he didn't answer,

0:35:21 > 0:35:23and I got scared, because I didn't want him to miss his flight,

0:35:23 > 0:35:27so I called my boss, um, my mom...

0:35:27 > 0:35:30- I didn't know what to do. - Then what?

0:35:30 > 0:35:32Um...

0:35:32 > 0:35:36just before 11.00, in the dark, I saw a man go into the house.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38Anything else unusual?

0:35:39 > 0:35:44Uh, well, when we drove away, I saw a white Bronco parked on Rockingham.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46It wasn't there when I arrived.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53Goldman left the restaurant just before 10.00.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Neighbours start hearing dog barking at 10.15.

0:35:56 > 0:35:59OJ screams at the salad bar lady at 10.45.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02OJ runs into his house a little before 11.00.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07- Our timeline totally holds together.- Hm.

0:36:10 > 0:36:14Bill...I know that you know I wanted this all for myself.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18But I'm glad we're doing it together.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20OK?

0:36:31 > 0:36:32HE BREATHES HEAVILY

0:36:32 > 0:36:34What is your name?

0:36:34 > 0:36:35Orenthal James Simpson.

0:36:38 > 0:36:41How many years were you married to Nicole Brown Simpson?

0:36:41 > 0:36:43Seven.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45Have you ever thought about killing Nicole?

0:36:45 > 0:36:46No.

0:36:46 > 0:36:49Do you know the whereabouts of the knife that was used to kill

0:36:49 > 0:36:51Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman?

0:36:51 > 0:36:52No.

0:36:52 > 0:36:55Is the person who killed Nicole in this room?

0:37:01 > 0:37:03I don't think he's holding up.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05It's like he's not really The Juice, anymore.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07Bob...

0:37:07 > 0:37:12whatever happens inside there today, neither of us says a word to anyone.

0:37:12 > 0:37:13Agreed?

0:37:17 > 0:37:20- So... - HE CLEARS THROAT

0:37:20 > 0:37:23I administered Mr Simpson a zone of comparison exam.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26The polygraph measured three physiological responses -

0:37:26 > 0:37:29heart rate, breathing and electrical sensitivity of his skin.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32I tabulated Mr Simpson's answers and responses.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38He scored a minus 24.

0:37:38 > 0:37:39Minus 24? What, what does that mean?

0:37:39 > 0:37:42It's a flunk. It's the worst you can do.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57There's no way he could have done it.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59I'm going to need you on this, Bob.

0:37:59 > 0:38:03There's no way... There's no way he could have done it.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Of course I failed it! She'd just died! I'm so emotional!

0:38:06 > 0:38:09I mean, every time they mentioned Nicole's name, my heart went crazy!

0:38:09 > 0:38:10All right, calm down. Don't worry.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13- These things don't work! These machines don't work!- We know.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15- That's why we can't use them in the courtroom.- We know.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17This was just for us, it doesn't mean anything.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19It doesn't mean anything. Bob is right.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21- Just to give us something to talk about.- It's not admissible.

0:38:21 > 0:38:24What did they think was going to happen?! You ask me that.

0:38:24 > 0:38:27Somebody say something! What did they think was going to happen?

0:38:27 > 0:38:29They're talking about the mother of my children dying

0:38:29 > 0:38:30and they ask me these questions!

0:38:30 > 0:38:32Of course the needle's going to be jumping!

0:38:32 > 0:38:35And you two are supposed to be representing me!

0:38:35 > 0:38:37- You're supposed to be in the room. Why am I paying your ass?- Come on.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40- Let's take a break from this. - I think that's a good idea.

0:38:40 > 0:38:41CLAMOURING

0:38:41 > 0:38:43Did you kill Nicole?!

0:38:43 > 0:38:44INDISTINCT SHOUTING

0:38:53 > 0:38:54Please step back.

0:39:10 > 0:39:11Over here!

0:39:23 > 0:39:26I can't believe she's gone.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29She was my personal angel.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31I wouldn't have gone to rehab if it weren't for her.

0:39:31 > 0:39:32RUNNING FOOTSTEPS

0:39:32 > 0:39:36- GIGGLING - Khloe. Kourtney. Stop running.

0:39:36 > 0:39:38Put away that candy!

0:39:38 > 0:39:39Do you...

0:39:41 > 0:39:43- VERY QUIETLY: - Do you think he did it?

0:39:43 > 0:39:46Oh, Kris. She was terrified of him.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50I just wish we'd done something.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54It was right in front of us.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56He always had that temper.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58He'd be smiling and then she'd mention some guy

0:39:58 > 0:40:01and he'd start screaming.

0:40:01 > 0:40:05Did you ever see the pictures of her face after he laid into her?

0:40:05 > 0:40:10And you know she hid them away, just in case something happened?

0:40:10 > 0:40:12CLAMOURING

0:40:26 > 0:40:27OJ, let me handle this.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32There's your ex.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41No pictures. Please, no pictures.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47Please, respect the family. Joe...

0:41:57 > 0:41:59He has no shame.

0:42:37 > 0:42:41Sweetheart, I am sorry, I... I can't come home yet.

0:42:41 > 0:42:44Mommy is waiting for something important.

0:42:51 > 0:42:53I have to go, I'm sorry, I have to go.

0:42:53 > 0:42:56Well? Do we have him?

0:42:56 > 0:42:58Yep. The DNA came through.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01The blood drops at Bundy are Simpson's type and the

0:43:01 > 0:43:04Rockingham glove matches a mix of Simpson and the victim's blood.

0:43:04 > 0:43:09Well, thank God. Let's put him behind bars.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11Tom, how long have you known me?

0:43:11 > 0:43:13Look, I know you have a warrant for his arrest,

0:43:13 > 0:43:16but there's no reason you have to come and get Mr Simpson

0:43:16 > 0:43:17when I can bring him to you.

0:43:17 > 0:43:19And let's be clear, no perp walk here.

0:43:31 > 0:43:33- Why don't, why don't I bring him in at noon?- 'What?

0:43:33 > 0:43:37'Why do you need three and a half hours to drive him from Brentwood?

0:43:52 > 0:43:54They're arresting him, of course,

0:43:54 > 0:43:57but they're using "special circumstances," which means no bail.

0:43:57 > 0:44:00He'll be in jail until the verdict. God!

0:44:00 > 0:44:03- Well, is he back at Rockingham? - No, no. He's at the hideout.

0:44:43 > 0:44:45Wake up. It's Bob.

0:44:45 > 0:44:48Now, look, we've got a lot of work to do today.

0:44:48 > 0:44:50- What's happening? - Now, here is where we're at.

0:44:50 > 0:44:52Now, I hate to be the bearer of bad news,

0:44:52 > 0:44:55but we must be pragmatic about these things.

0:44:55 > 0:44:57- Well, what are you saying to me? - Honey, what's going on?

0:44:57 > 0:45:00- Paula, go back to bed.- They've issued a warrant for your arrest.

0:45:00 > 0:45:03- You have to be downtown at 11.00. It's fine.- No!- I'll fix this.

0:45:03 > 0:45:05- No, no! I can't do that, Bob! - Look, we're going to...

0:45:05 > 0:45:07I can't go to jail! Oh...

0:45:07 > 0:45:09- OK, we'll just work through this together.- Oh, God!

0:45:09 > 0:45:12Now, listen to me. It's very important that you understand this.

0:45:12 > 0:45:14- OJ.- I can't go to jail, Bob! - Yes, you can.

0:45:14 > 0:45:16And you have to understand one thing.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19This may be the last time we get to speak without anyone eavesdropping,

0:45:19 > 0:45:23so if you have anything to say, I'll clear the room.

0:45:28 > 0:45:30- Bob, get out of here. - What is that? They're already here?

0:45:30 > 0:45:33No, they're just friends. They're here to look at you.

0:45:33 > 0:45:35We had this planned. Let's not do that.

0:45:40 > 0:45:41No significant wounds or abrasions.

0:45:41 > 0:45:43What about here, on the torso?

0:45:44 > 0:45:47I see some swollen lymph nodes.

0:45:47 > 0:45:49Is there any family history of cancer?

0:45:49 > 0:45:52OJ looks sad. Can he lie down?

0:45:52 > 0:45:56You let them do their thing. This is best defence money can buy.
