o.j. simpson for the deaths of nicole brown simpson and ronald lyle goldman.ately 3:00 p.m., no one knows where he is. >> we thought the evidence was overwhelming. there is no doubt, this is the man who committed the crime. >> you're looking at a live picture right now. you believe that to be o.j. simpson down there below you? >> o.j. was a guy who felt like he was above race. he became the exceptional hollywood negro. he had a blonde wife. lived in brentwood. he played the role very well. >> o.j. is sitting in the passenger seat with a gun pointed at his own head. >> if the person who murdered two white people was a street thug, it wouldn't have been this big case. but it was this big icon. >> we understand o.j. is in custody. >> you don't want to believe that this kind of person would have done this. >> how do you plead to counts one and two? >> absolutely, 100% not guilty. >> legal analysts say simpson's demeanor was orchestrated by his newly expanded legal team that now includes johnnie cochran. >> johnnie cochran was an icon to the black community because

o.j. simpson was acquitted basis what appeared to be overwhelming evidence for those of us with a little bit of a shorter regulation, george zimmerman was acquitted in connection with the killing of trey von martin so it is by no means a slamdunk and we live in a system, i'm a criminal defense lawyer. but we do live in a system where the jury is instructed that a fair amount of deference is to be given to police officers who are involved with the process of making an arrest or doing their job. so it is by no means a slamdunk. the fact that there are 28 witnesses for the prosecution as compared to seven for the defense is not a factor. >> a lot of people look at the video it was so painful to watch. they would say that is a slamdunk but legally you have to show intent, right that he intended to hurt or kill george floyd. defense is the prosecution didn't do that do you think they didn't do that? >> the video is overwhelming as a human being and the jurors are all human beings the video is very compelling. without at the prosecution case would be incredibly weekend, this video is going to haun

o.j. simpson back in the news. the details about his latest legal battle. >>> and later, stood up, the blame game after a global leader who happens to be a woman was left without a seat at the table during a high-stakes summit. >>> good friday morning, everyone. i'm trevor ault. >> and i'm faith abubey. mona and kenneth are off. we begin with new details overnight about the two latest mass shootings in this country. >> we're learning more about the 27-year-old man accused of shooting up his office in texas and the former nfl player accused of killing five people including a doctor and his two grandchildren in south carolina. >> all of this playing out amid new reaction to president biden's executive actions on gun control. biden calling gun violence in the u.s. an international embarrassment. this morning, another mass shooting in america. police say an employee at this cabinet company in bryant, texas, shot and killed at least one person, wounding five others. >> he didn't say nothing. i asked already my co-worker

o.j. simpson verdict was and the reaction, the relief of people. okay, again. so don't fault me for this. i know it's two different cases. i'm talking about the reaction here. and so i think people knew how rare it was because of the celebrating. because they said justice was finally served. and they knew how rare it was because look, now, chris, you and i are sitting here talking. we've been talking for six, seven minutes. we haven't said unrest. we haven't said protest. we haven't said riot, we haven't said loot, we haven't said fire, haven't said let's go to breaking news to our reporter on the scene. i think people know how rare it is, and they're holding their breaths. their collective breaths. we all are to see what happens next. because as i told you in the opening of my show, the closing of your show earlier, that this is -- that it's tough because we know there is going to be another time, right? something, a police shooting is going to happen again. and we're going to have to analyze it. and the nation is going to have to go through it. we'll see what

o.j. simpson. that was only a four-hour decision. i remember as a little girl, my mom pulling up to the side of the road is that verdict was read. this is not the end of something. this is the beginning, isn't it? at least a jury calling for change. david: the question is -- where does that change come from? various states are taking a look at changing their statutes regulating police. we have a federal statute that has been proposed in congress called the george floyd justice in policing act. will this add interest to have more federalization of what has been a state and local issue about how you control the police? i don't have the answer to that, but i know a lot of countries will be looking to the president now to see where you lead us now. a lot of communities are feeling like they need their police. the president avoided the defund the police movement. he's got to really strike the right balance between making sure this doesn't happen again and at the same time, making sure that our police can do their job. emily: again, we are

o.j. simpson is convicted?uld america think, instead of holding that trial in brentwood where he lived and where the crime occurred and where a large percentage of highly educated jurors would have been there, that they instead moved it to los angeles? which is what they did do to get a different set of jurors. these type of things are examples of what happens when you draw this contrast. we had derek chauvin targeted by the state. that's not due process. even the due process that someone like o.j. simpson who brutally killed two people was entitled to. why isn't derek chauvin? >> tucker: it's making people radical. i appreciate you coming on. cortes is getting to the end of a sophomore year at american university and has theorys of everything. mark stein joins us after the break. you know it's silly six-foot five, three hundred pounds i ride motorcycles on the weekends. so the thought of getting a hearing aid, i was.. i was scared. with lively, did a hearing test on the computer, when they sent them in the mai

o.j. simpson. case we have six whites, four blacks, two multi racials on this panel and a mix of men and women. a mix that pretty well matches the makeup of the city of minneapolis and surrounding areas. the makeup of the jury is not one to which either side can really point and say that gave me a disadvantage. >> well, you know, you started off the program talking about appellate issues and regarding the jury and the influence placed on the jury and the reason why i don't think the maxine waters part would be an appealable issue, if there's a conviction, is because the judge never asked any of the jurors if they heard those comments and would have affected them however, to your other point, the jurors were asked in jury selection if they had heard about the $27 million awarded. many of them, i don't know the exact count who are on the jury did know about it and that could be an issue that you could raise had some sort of effect on their decision-making process because in a way it's the government

o.j. simpson is convicted.uld america think that instead of holding that trial in brentwood where he lived and where the crime occurred and where a large percentage of highly educated jurors would have been there, that they instead moved it to los angeles which is what they did do. so that they could get a different set of jurors. these types of things are examples of what happens when you draw this contrast. we had derek chauvin targeted, targeted the state and that's not due process. even the due process that someone like o.j. simpson who brutally killed it to people entitled to. why isn't derek chauvin? >> tucker: this is making people radical as we often say and that's bad. pierce cooper, thank you for coming on. she's got her theory of everything fully explained. we want to hear that. mark steyn is with us after the break. ♪ ♪ >> ♪ ♪ >> tucker: a couple >> tucker: a couple of weeks ago, internationally renowned cognitive athlete kirsten gillibrand, also u.s. senator, announced that everything is infrastruc

o.j. simpson was acquitted in four hours. george zimmerman was also acquitted in 16 hours, also relatively quickly. we should note the big differences obviously in those cases, beyond the racial dynamics being very different in aural of them, the murders of trayvon martin and the murders of all the other individuals that we've been talking about in the last year generally speaking with the only exception being that i can think of eric garner, none of them were on tape. this was filmed, all nine and a half minutes of former officer chauvin's knee on george floyd's neck. this was filmed. we all saw it. >> yeah. >> we all saw it, but if you had been watching -- i had been glued to the coverage, and if you've been watching it, the defense has been trying to make us is not believe what we have seen with our own eyes and what we heard at least 27 times of george floyd saying i can't breathe, if not more, so they are trying to convince us that, you know, that reality is not reality. jake, as you know, sadly, after the last five year

o.j. simpson, scott peterson, michael jackson, timothy mcveigh, a quick verdict except in o.j. simpson is very bad news for the defendant and i think that a lot of defense attorneys that we've talked to over the last several days and weeks would concur with the fact that this does not appear to bode well for derek chauvin who by the way is 44 years old and if convicted on all of these things, unless the sentences run concurrent, it's one after the other, then you're talking about the fact that he could walk out in eight, nine, ten years. >> neil: amazing, i had forgotten about his willingness to go ahead and plead to the third-degree murder charge back in the beginning of all of this. thank you very much, mercedes is on the phone right now, what do you read into this, the quick nature of this, all of the other things you've been hearing, the verdict that we are supposed to hear any minute now. >> most defense attorneys will tell you that if you've got a quick turnaround when the jury is deliberating it is not good news for the defense. so a lot, you can see that from a lot of de

o.j. simpson, please. i guess he knows a lot about the justice system since he's a double killer. >> martha: yeah. lived to tell about it and be back on twitter and making judgments on this case and on -- >> and making us listen to him. >> martha: exactly. so we'll move on from that. the judge indicated that -- by the way, you made a great point about the president weighing in on this. saying what kind of verdict he expects. we know that he spoke to the floyd family. that will come into play here. we'll talk about that in the next segment. the judge has indicated that he's going to hold the verdict for an appropriate time. if it comes out thursday night at 8:00 p.m., he will wait until the morning to actually release answer announce this verdict. your thoughts on that. >> that may be wise to avoid protests worse than we expect them to be. on the other hand, that may be what he's saying. that may not be what he actually does. so we'll see what happens. he's not going to declare a mistrial. he's going to wai

o.j. simpson trial when he was accused of killing his wife nicole that jury took just 4 hours to acquit him they were also sending a message that message was that that was an easy decision for them if you can see there's a fair amount of traffic is soon as it was announced that we were going to have a decision and that decision is due to come down in about an hour and a half we're told cars started leaving downtown minneapolis one would think that is apparently out of fear that there might be either riots in the street if people are unhappy or celebrations in the street if people are happy so we are waiting for that verdict in an hour and a half or so we don't know exactly what it will be but we do know that the jury reached it with unusual speed in less than 24 hours and we will we will deliver that verdict as soon as it's given but once it is the entire world will know whether derek chauvin is guilty of either murder or manslaughter and of course the entire world has been interested in this case and in the u.s. it's been headline news since it started so much so that president biden actua

o.j. simpson trial all those years ago, the reason the country was on eggshells today waiting for this verdict, the reason the anticipation was so thick you could cut it with a knife, was because even after that trial we all just saw, even after that blunt and overwhelming evidence, i mean, in this country how could you know it would turn out this way? like that 91-year-old come woman said this d.c. through tears of relief, i don't see how it could have been otherwise, but i do know it could have been otherwise. we actually know from the public record that in the normal course of events, had there not been a very significant intervention by some everyday random civilian americans, it's not just that it's unlikely that it turned out the way it did today. it really wouldn't have turned out this way barring that intervention by those by standing americans. and we know that. we know that it wasn't going to go this way in the normal course of events from the initial public statement that the minneapolis police department released to the public after george floyd died. this was their statement to th

o.j. simpson in 1995 have people gather much much to tune in and watch the trial.bsessed with

o.j. simpson case many, many years ago. and i can tell you the tension then reminds me of tension and now. what i anticipate one of the things that i would want to keep front and center with this jury is that videotape that nine minutes and 29 seconds videotape. i think that if i was them and i will take how i believe both sides should put out that argument, mike. i think the prosecution should start off with i can't breathe mama, mama i can't breathe. they should show derek chauvin with his knee on this man's neck with his son shane over his head. you can see throughout the process where derek chauvin mashed down further. they must tell the jury listen to the instructions of the judge. that it does not have to be the specific factor but it's just a substantial factor in the death of this man. they must show with their evidence what their experts are showing that derek chauvin caused the murder of george floyd. now, mike, on the other side defense. the defense must show and say to this jury in no uncertain terms, if you fin

o.j. simpson trial was 11 months and the jury deliberated for four hours. but is there some correlation between length of deliberation and the verdict? the further we get out from that first day of deliberation, a not guilty verdict is more likely? >> right now, i think it's so early, like areva said. right now, they're kind of just getting their bearings. they probably took a straw poll to see what each of them thought about each of the charges. they're getting a sense about each of the charges and what's common to them and what's not common to them. so, right now, it's so early that anything that they're doing, you know, is really, they need to do in order to kind of understand the charges and understand the evidence. when we get to maybe next week sometime, even though there were two-plus weeks of testimony and evidence, i think maybe when we get to next week, you're starting to think about whether there's some disagreement among the jurors about the charges, but right now, i think they're just earnestly looking at the charges and looking at the evidence

o.j. simpson going to teach a course on anger management? what can you say? this is a joke, hunter biden giving a lecture on media disinformation when the guy has been lying repeatedly about what he and his dad knew about his business dealings in the ukraine, lying about his laptop, it's a joke. i'm surprised students will even show up. >> emily: i think my biggest reservation about this when i hear it is just that not only is he not even in the top 50,000 of better sources on this actual important topic but also that a lot of these issues haven't yet been resolved, he is still under federal investigation, there are so many things about which news media covered hunter biden that have yet to be concluded and so why him, why now? >> kayleigh: he shouldn't be a speaker in this course, he should be a subject matter of this course because the real fake news, the media's total dismissal of the hunter biden story saying it's russian disinformation when in fact we know that this laptop has hundreds of pictures of hunter on it, text messages with his

o.j. simpson case it was 4 hours but often it can take days or even weeks until then minneapolis just waits indeed but it's not stopping various people called in to see me a politician on the hill. about the trial and its aftermath i mean what's being said . well maxine waters is a california congresswoman an african-american civil rights activist. and she was asked during a protest about her views and she said the protesters should hope for a murder conviction not just a man's lot or conviction and they should speak out they should get more confrontational in her words with other members of congress of course these are largely republicans got upset about that some of called for her resignation ironically some of the people who are calling for her resignation did support the riots we did support some of the marchers i should say before the attack on the capitol on january 6th so there may be a kind of reverse cancel culture going on here. flown as floyd called that a distraction and but it came into the courtroom when the defense counsel asked the judge for a mistrial saying that waters mig

o.j. simpson not guilty of murder for show of an end for residents of minneapolis and cities across the u.s. that wait will be filled with anxiety and fear for what comes next john hendren al jazeera minneapolis. have been outside the courthouse demanding conviction be peaceful demonstrations have been taking place as minnesota governor and the mayor of minneapolis call for calm. acknowledged to troops. we cannot allow civil unrest to descend into chaos we must protect life and property but we also must either stand very clearly if we don't listen to those communities in pain and those people on the streets many of whom were arrested are speaking a fundamental truth that we must change we will be right back here again the former u.s. vice president walter mondale has died at the age of 93 he served alongside president jimmy carter in the late 1970 s. and 1904 he ran against ronald reagan for the white house becoming the 1st nominee from a major party to pick a woman as his running mates but he lost by a landslide after the clearing he would raise taxes if he won. here's a check of the headl

o.j. simpson, despite dna evidence, had not murdered two people.e to point, there's a lot of people -- trump voters charged with trespassing. no republican in the congress stands up for them. nobody mentions -- nobody is for prison reform when it's a political enemy. that is not equal justice, but nobody says it. why is that? >> there's a pandemic of ignorance in this country and that is only allowed to fly because we also have a pandemic of cowardice in this country. we have people that are purposefully putting out a bunch of ignorant claims and we have people who are too cowardly to stand up and say you know what, this is wrong. you talked about it, i talked about it,on we do not have peope sitting in congress who are willing to take this fight where it needs to be taken. by the way, you forgot maxine waters inciting violence. i'm so old that i remember when a man said to fight peacefully to the capital and that was considered an insight to violence. that was like oh, my gosh, stop the press. look at what maxine waters said. no one in the media i

o.j. simpson, for example. he's not one of them. i think he's coming across as pretty cold. his reputation is that he comes across as cold. i think he'd not do himself any favors by testifying. >> even if the defense convinces the jury that this was an acceptable, allowable use of force, they still have to explain why none of the officers on the scene gave mr. floyd any medical aid. have you heard any good reasons so far as to why that aid was never given? >> no, i have not and even when i put myself and i think back over the course of my career in situations where we had to wrestle someone to the ground, we always remember one thing, and that is we still were responsible for the safety of that person, even once we had them in custody, so i don't think anything has been presented here so far that has been compelling enough on a defense side, but, here again, there's still a lot of testimony that's coming forward over the next couple of weeks. >> yeah. or just at the beginning of this. thanks to both of you for your expertise. appreciate it. >>> any moment we expect to see pr

o.j. simpson trial.ke it's not quite at that level yet, but it feels like this trial has gripped the nation. >> there's no question, because look. there is symbolism in this beyond just the case itself. white police officer with knee on black man who is dying under his knee. boy. there's nothing sort of symbolic more so than that, and you can watch that tape, and i don't care what race yo are. that tape is so hard to watch, and inside that courtroom, jurors are being asked to watch it again and again in different ways and different manners. so, you know, because this case as pierre points out has this sort of, you know, this sense of something more, it feels that way as well. >> and that is all we have time for today. thank you very much. we'll be right back. struggling to manage my type 2 diabetes was knocking me out of my zone, but lowering my a1c with once-weekly ozempic® helped me get back in it. ♪ oh, oh, oh, ozempic® ♪ my zone? lowering my a1c and losing some weight. now, back to the show. ozempic®

o.j. simpson there was so much damning evidence against him that he had to get up and prosecute and a lot of legal observers are saying that's what's happening in this case of the prosecution's case is extraordinarily strong and that there will be pressure on the defense to put derek chauvet on the stand that won't happen for a few days the judge says he believes the defense will be able to wrap my thursday or friday of this week that's for a faster than the 2 weeks and one day the prosecution took and the judge said he expects to have closing arguments as soon as monday and when that happens he says he's going to sequester the jury that is to isolate them will be in a hotel in a place where they cannot have access to outside media and they will be guarded during that time it also serves to accelerate their deliberations but whether or not derek chauvin will testify that we don't know thank you very much john hendren in minneapolis well joseph daly is emerson's professor at mitchell hamlin school of law and actually taught defense attorney and he joins us via skype from minneapolis could
