Jasper,
Before I read Iago I wasn't really interested in who the real killer was. There were too many pulls in too many directions and I thought that nobody would ever bring the killer(s) to justice. Law enforcement wasn't going to loose face and admit that there was a possibility they screwed up so royally. I thought there could possibly be a confession by somebody in prison somewhere that we would never hear about. Some detective who took a confession could offer his story to any number of news papers or publishers and nobody would be interested in printing good news for O.J. Simpson. There will be no justice for O.J.
I remember watching the news on the 13th or 14th, and there were rumours that a bloody glove, matching a glove at the murder scene, had been found behind O.J. Simpson's house. A wee bit too much I thought, but not yet interested. Then I saw Fuhrman's scary performance in the prelims and knew that all was not at all what it was presented to be. Now I was interested.
You are so right about how they connected the dots as they pleased and even put some in where there were none to get the prepercieved picture.
And in the middle of this web sits master spider Fuhrman. I always felt I learned more about the case from Murder in Brentwood, which I thought was werd, but now I understand why. He was trying to conn us, manipulate us to see his web as he had spun it. And I believe he did the same to the detectives and prosecutors. Remember how devestated they all were when he took the 5th. And it was not about the n-word (or N-word).
