This is a documentary about O.J. Simpson, a famous footballer, when he was charged with a murder, he has supposedly killed his ex and her boyfriend. Throughout the season you get to see how O.J. his friends and his family take the news. When he first heard the news and he knew that he would get arrested he wanted to commit suicide but his friend convinced him not to, he and O.J. drove away but the police followed them. When they finally got home he agreed to go with the police. There are pretty clear evidence that he commit the murders but because he was famous and black, the black community blames it on the racist police. There is evidence in O.J. car and several eye witnesses but still the jury in court thinks that he is innocent and that he was framed. In the end he gets off the case and doesn’t get any punishment. But really he got around 30 years in prison.
I really like crime documentaries and think it is very interesting. But I would’ve liked it if he got the 30 years in prison instead of nothing. Besides that I really liked it, I like that it was very complicated and it wasn’t clear whether he did it or if he was innocent.I also like that at the end of the show when he got back home it still wasn't clear if he did it or not. I would recommend the show to others I think that basically anyone who is interested in crime would like the show.
