In reply to the discussion: O J Simpson dead at 76: [View all]Johnny2X2X
(24,345 posts)25. Wrong, it was worse than that
Cochrane wasn't the one who asked him to try on the glove. It was the prosecutors who did, Chris Darden to be specific. Just incredible incompetence.
They had to talk about it. No one on the prosecution's team thought to try a leather glove on as an example to see how it might play out in court? Anyone knows you can flex your hand to not mke a glove fit. All they had to do was thnk about that and they never would have asked OJ to try on the glove. Just pathetic.
I mean, go grab any glove and try to put it on while trying to not have it fit, it's easy to make it look like it doesn't fit. You have to wiggle your fingers and squirm to get into a leather glove.
