In a book that's certain to make headlines, the only person to prosecute O.J.

Good story

I liked the story. The reading was a bit bland, however- the information was good.

Cover to Cover!

This is the best book in the entire OJ saga. I couldn't put it down.

Short, but great summary of evidence

Well written, to the point, no filler. Worth a read if the OJ Simpson saga intrigues you.

Conclusive New Evidence

Petrocelli walks readers through the successful civil trial lawsuit that found OJ Simpson liable for double murder.
He learned from the prosecution’s mistakes in the criminal trial and uncovered new evidence, including a plausible motive. Best of all, Petrocelli gets the chance to cross-examine OJ on the stand and confront him to his face. Although the civil trial doesn’t make up for the botched criminal trial, it resulted in real consequences for Mr. Simpson.
This book also explains the evidence and timeline in a concise and understandable way. Highly enjoyable.

Great unsensationalized proof of attacker's guilt

I really appreciated Petrocelli's lucid, succinct, sensitive approach to navigating the law in the wake of this terribly public, celebrity, racialized trial. He provides irrefutable, cogent evidence of holding the correct person accountable for the attacks and murders of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown. in this account, the reader learns Goldman was a completely blameless victim in Brown's troubles with her ex-husband--when they turned murderous. Simpson's actions also reflects typical behavior of domestically violent spouses, of escalating abuse and danger for the abused--especially when she or he leaves. This legal account pairs well with Christopher Darden's touching, transparent account of the criminal trial. I've not yet read or listened to other attorneys from the trial: for me these two suffice! Thank you.
