Most people cannot keep a paradoxical idea in their head; that is those without an education. Simpson was guilty as sin for the Nicole/Goldman murders based on scientific evidence but he walked Scot free over a pandered to ignorant  Jury; the Las Vegas caper was right out of a Key Stone Cop farce, and no ordinary peson would have got more than six months or even probation. Both cases constituted travesties of justice and it proves a point. In Economics and Political Science and Criminology  courses they talk about the rational man theory. Join the real world....voters and juries and people in general, especially high school  drop outs, are any thing but rational.
