Went from t manger to below the masthead as frontpage adline news. But if anybody knew hot mother was, they didnt bear witness. Was there a plea for information . No one called. No leads to go on.

This s the hardest role ive done. It took me a good month or so after filming the show to finally get back into my right frame of mind. Because i told them i had nothin to hide reporter simpson continues didnt kill his exwife, nicole brown simpson, andnd her friend, ron goldman. The miniseries chronicles the nearly ninemonth trial. Canny simpson attorney Robert Shapiro portrayed by john travolta, his First Television role in decaded. What was appealing about this to bring you back to tv . The material was powerful. The comments that it was still making about contemporary issues, about the legal system, about the judicial system, about racism. Reporter another key player in the courtroom drama, no nonsense prosecutor marcia clark, played by sarah paulson, with that unmistakable curly hair which wouould becomfodder during the trial. I too was going what are you doing . Why is your hair like that . And the truth is, it was really just not the point. Should not have been on my mind at all. Reporter who can forget simpsons defense dream team, charismatic johnny cork ran i aint trying to be respectful, im trying to win. Yes, well, i used to be utah but not criminal. Reporter David Schwimmer transforms into simpsons close friend robert kardashian. Why in the hell were you in there alone . I dont know, man at that point, nobody really kardashian. Hes just a regular man whoho suddenly found hielf, one year later, incredibly famous. Reporter uncomfortable with notoriety, kardashian never lived to see the explosive fame his daughters and exwife would later enjoy. Schwimmer says he spoke with kris jenner, learning things few of us knew about o. J. s confidant. Incredibly loyal and compassionate and generous. Perhapss the most vuable thing to me was learning that he was a man of deep faith. Very religious man. I do think he was conflicted at times. And i think his feelings and beliefs did change in the cou of the trial. The secret tapes of the o. J. Case, kris jenner recalls watching her exhusbands face as the verdict was announced. I tnk he was shocked. He was definitely stunned. I mean, you could look at his face and see it, knowing him my sb liar entire life. I know that he was floored that that was the verdict. Rorter one of schwimmers scenes was filmed in the kardashians former home. Give me the gun. Give me the gun what was that scene like for you .

Simpson they say, let me tell people are stopped alongside the road do you remember where you were during that bronco chase . Yeah. Watching the knicks game. Then they cut into the bronco and the small cornererof the thats o. J. Simpson hes got a gun in his mouth reporter two hours later, with the nation transfixed here he is now, the car pulling into the driveway reporter simps is back at his brentwood mansion and soon under arrest, charged with murder. We do have sufficient evidence to convict him and prove his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Reporter in an instant, marcia clark is thrust into the blinding limelight. She had the courage of her convictions and wanted to go the distance to make sure that this man was put away. And to all of a sudden be thrust on the National Stage and have the predominant conversation be about what she looked like. And her manner. And was she feminine enough. Was she strident. Was she a bitch. Good morning, ms. Clark. I think. Reporter the series shows soon becomes a racially charged courtroom drama. 70 of whites thought o. J. Was guilty. 70 of blacks thought he was innocent. Did this film shatter your perceptions one w or another . For me the biggest discovery wawas t things that were not submitted to court. The furman tapes. The legal battle behind the scenes. Reporter which includes the dream teams strategy. Mark furman reporter pointing fingers at lapd, which has a history of alleged misconduct. Ficers accused of planting evidence, mishandling it, and framing simpson. Did you plant or manufacture any evidence in this case . Reporter the actors hear the real explosive audiotapes of detective marark furman spouting racial slurs like this. First thing, anything out of a [ bleep ] mouth for the first five or six sentences is a [ bleep ] lie perjuring, genocidal racist. The bile that this man said about black pele. And i was the frustration and anger i felt. You know, having sons having two b boys that are now at that age where they have to deal with not just Gang Violence but policebrutality. It just it gets me frustrated and angry. Sir, out of the car now reporter the miniseries triggered personal emotions around race and police encounters. Im going to have to cuff you. Reporter vance, married to actress angela basset, says he personally relates to his characters stggles. How did that impact you as an actor . Neighborhood. And it happened to me. The police came to our house and they had heard that somebody was pacing around the neighborhood. I come outside and t they scrm get on your knees hands behind my back. A mistake. But the difference is, in life, as what were seeing nowadays with all these episodes in chicago and the ferguson case, we should not be rehashing this. Thats why i think its so important thatt were doing this project. And more is involved since we agreed to the project. In the last year it seemed to escalate. Reporter with the spate of recent cases alleging police brutality, the simpson story may strike a chord with viewers and also prompt the question many are uncomfortable with did you come away with a stronger opinion about whether hes guilty or innocent . Are you convinced in your mind now . No. What the truth is . No, no. Im not convinced either way. You know, he was found innocent a group of his peers. But my opinions are all over the place now.
