Synopsis

One of America's leading appeal lawyers, Alan Dershowitz, examines the American criminal justice system, critically analyzing its strengths and weaknesses. Using the O.J. Simpson murder case as the backdrop, Reasonable Doubts explores the larger issues that shape our country's legal system.

Chosen to prepare the appeal should O.J. Simpson be convicted, Alan Dershowitz is uniquely suited to deconstruct the case in order to use it in understanding the modern criminal justice system. The crucial questions raised by the O.J. Simpson case, and Dershowitz's answers, invite a reassessment not only of the case itself, but also of the strengths—and weaknesses—of the legal system in America today.

Goodreads review by Vicki on November 14, 2021

I personally read three other books that presented a lot of evidence that O.J. got away with murder. I never really saw him as a black man, but an extremely good football player with anger management and abusive spouse issues. That can happen regardless of color. But it seems when the verdict was re......more
