Reddit reviews Without a Doubt

I think you mean Barry Scheck’s "bullshit" not Johnny Cochran’s, especially since Scheck was the attorney on Oj’s team in charge of dealing with the DNA and other scientific evidence. Unless, (as your previously racist insinuation that people of color were manipulated into voting for acquittal despite the white people on the jury indicated), you saw the word “Black” in my user name and assumed that I too suspend all faculties for critical thinking as soon as another black person mentions the word racism.

As to your false assertion that there was no EDTA in those samples, this is even disputed in Marcia Clark’s book Without a Doubt. The prosecution’s argument was that certain amounts of EDTA are found in human blood naturally, and that it was unclear where EDTA on the gate and sock came from.

>Challenged by Clark that humans can have more EDTA naturally in their blood than Rieders said his research suggested, the toxicologist thundered, "That's absurd!" He suggested that higher levels of EDTA would mean some people would be walking around with blood that would not clot.

>Clark derided his testimony as "way off the deep end of speculation."

>But Rieders's testimony contained some potentially powerful evidence. On the sock, EDTA was found only on the bloody part of the sock, not on the unsoiled fabric, suggesting the EDTA did not come from detergent. As for the swatch of blood taken from the smear on the back gate at the crime scene, the gate did not hold EDTA -- only the blood on the gate did.

Also, Detective Lang didn’t even mention the drop of blood on the back gate in his original notes.

>Furthermore, Det. Tom Lange did not include the drop in his detailed notes about the gate during his initial inspection of the crime scene, as he acknowledged in his deposition Monday. The defense’s implication: that a rogue officer daubed a drop on the back gate straight from the vial containing O.J. Simpson’s blood sample.

You can continue to pretend that Oj was acquitted because of stupid black people on the jury if you want to, but if you want to avoid sounding like a racist idiot, perhaps you should better familiarize yourself with the facts of the case.
