Summary, etc.: | June 12, 1994. O.J. Simpson's ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman were brutally slaughtered in her front yard late at night. The media circus that consumed the news cycle for the next eighteen months altered the world's opinion of Simpson, but the jury, after nearly a year of sequestration, came to a verdict of not guilty. A member of the defense team, Bailey brings the trial to life on the page: revelations of police misconduct and ineptitude, infighting on the defense team, and more that only someone who was on the inside can recount. -- adapted from jacket |
