Description

Athlete, actor and probably, mosty likely double murderer O.J. Simpson died of cancer at the age of 76 on April 10. Named the trial of the century, Simpson's murder trial ended up being much more than a pop culture phenomenon. Rather, it further exposed racial discrimination within law enforcement agencies while also showcasing a deep racial divide within American society still present in the 1990s. Giving The Juice one more hour in the spotlight, Ty, Jay and Meredith discuss the O.J. Simpson trial's effects on Americans, ranging from race relations to setting unrealistic expectations for jurors in future trials.
