Marcia's questioning is ridiculous. Although I think OJ is clearly guilty.. i'm pretty sure she annoyed the HELL out of the jury. And getting impatient and angry at Kato doesn't help anything
This drove me nuts. How is Kato supposed to tell everyone what is going on in oJ's head. was oj Angry, sad, annoyed, irritated, agitated, depressed, tired, fidgety. Good grief. The most dissected trip to McDonald's on the planet.
Simpsons blood at the crime scene, his blood in the bronco, his blood at rockingham, Nicole and Ron’s blood in the bronco, Nicole and Ron’s blood on the socks found in simpsons bedroom, cuts to simpsons left hand, a bloody glove at bundy, a bloody glove at rockingham, simpson had no alibi for the time of the killings, the call to Paula at 22.03 he told the detectives in his interview he made from his bronco, and what came during the civil trial, Simpson wearing the Bruno magli shoes in over 30 photos taken just months before the murders. This should of been a slam dunk case, but he got off due to a mixture of poor evidence collection, bungles by the prosecution, Rodney king, wealth, celebrity, race.
I remember this trial so vividly and agree with you. As much as she was up against it, a Legal Analyst said it best Marcia Clark spoke at the jury, Johnny Cochran spoke to the jury. The Defense were more conversing attorneys with witnesses with the exception of FLB & Scheck.
Why watch the trial at all if you're going to pass up Marcia's questioning. Unless they've cut a lot out, the trial is loooong, and she does most of the questioning for the prosecution. I watched it when the trial aired.
@@Courtneyheu no not just the men , so many women commented nasty things about her and being annoyed with her line of questioning when they have no clue about law and the court.
lissalives Smoot Many questions have nothing to do with the actual murders... but questions can and will open up other doors to many other things like inconsistencies... I’m going through a trial myself and I’ve learned so much.
lissalives Smoot they use what seem like irrelevant questions, to open up a conduit to questions that needed foundation, or the objections get sustained.
lissalives Smoot Because your not leagal savey. Marsha was trying to present the fact that OJ was extremely jealous. Before you make comments know the leagal things involved in a case like this.
lissalives Smoot ...let's face it!....unless he was gay,...when you move in with a hot chick,....you have fantasies!...and the ball catching ,jilted thug knew this!....NOPE!...I'm not going to pay, while you screw my X wife!
Or long pauses before they ask the questions. Or her hostile tone towards the witness. If this is the best they could do it’s ridiculous. She should’ve been fired after this. It’s as if she’s there for the first time! Anyone could’ve asked better questions & behaved properly - used the right tone, be more pleasant. I’ve never seen a witness getting treated like this on the stand.
Then why did he plead the 5th amendment in his initial grand jury testimony. People that have nothing to hide DO NOT DO THAT. He’s had a good life and career because of this case, and the money he took from OJ to stfu. Sure, was he honest about some things? Yes. Did he embellish other things? Yes. Are there things that he knows about that night that he has not shared publicly? Yes. I guess if your not asked certain things, you do not have to reveal certain things. But is that being honest?
The detective who worked the case said this week that the trial was about putting the LAPD on trial & not about the murders. They had an agenda sent from higher up and that sickens me. Two people who were viciously murdered did not get justice cuz of a political agenda. Her dumb questions & the refusal to use all evidence is on purpose
Just like countless black victims never saw justice because of the racist system, this is only time white peoples felt that pain and outrage. In the immortal words of Dave Chappelle “IT BURN DONT IT, THE JUSTICE SYSTEN BURNS DOESNT IT?!”
SAD TO SAY KATO WAS IF NOT THE MOST CREDIBLE WITNESS. BAD MOVE FOR THE PROSECUTION TO USE HIM BECAUSE HE COULDNT POINT TO ANYTHING THAT COULD HELP PROVE THERE CASE. He never saw OJ abuse nicole he also did not show OJ to be jealous and overly possessive. Nor did OJ try to make him testify positively for him. And By Marcia pressuring her own witness and mistreating her shows malice and scorn for the truth.
Well Kato was no expert either he was just a laid back guy and didn't recognize the severity of the situation himself he heard them argue but tried to avoid most problems himself. I think she took the wrong tone with him too though and if you make the witness nervous they won't be the best witnesses.
Lawyers like Marcia Clark being rude to a witness who didn't ask to be a part of a trial is the very reason I would play dumb like I didn't know a single thing. Kato was there to help her and she was mean to him.
She requested he be declared hostile. She is thereby able to cross examine the witness. He was uncooperative to the prosecution's case, she was unable to elicit accurate testimony on direct and Ito allowed Kaelin to be declared hostile. Hostile witnesses are allowed to be cross examined, indeed that is the ultimate point of declaring a witness hostile.
awwww Kato making me cry because he tearing up, seems like he really didn't have time ti grieve because the expected so much of him and marcia evil witch try make like he lying because he not saying what she wanna hear
Marcia knows that Kato told his friend a much different story than he is telling her, holding back on her. probably because OJ is there staring in his face
The jury did not favor Marcia Clark. They said she was basically a bitch. Her examination of Kato demonstrates that. She radiates impatience, anger, and all of it worked against her in this case. I love the contrast between Clark and Shapiro here. His soft easy going approach, welcoming the witness who he clearly knows wants to work in Simpson's favor. This trial never ceases to entertain!
Clint Walker Marcia didnt realize how loyal Kato was to OJ going into this examination. Another example of the prosecution being played by the defense by getting Kato to answer in favor of the defense.
@Clint Walker - I admire Marcia Clark. However, she does come off a bit antagonistic at this trial. In fairness to Ms. Clark, she was up against a bunch of ALPHA DOGS who showed little respect to women in general. Bill Hodges was one of the original DAs who became ill and could not continue as a part of the prosecution. Bill Hodges ran a lot cooler than Marcia's temperament. The outcome of the trial MAY have been different if Bill Hodges stayed on; but probably not. I agree that Robert Shapiro has a much softer and easier approach. But then again, Robert Shapiro was a plea bargainer, not a trial attorney. Different set of attorney skills. Back to Marcia Clark, the media was terrible to her; always commenting on her hair and clothes. She was also a mother to two small boys and was going through a divorce at the same time of this trial. It's a wonder she didn't have a breakdown during this time.
You’ll notice that cops, prosecutors and prosecution-leaning media tend to belittle Kato. When you watch his testimony it seems like he’s a reasonably intelligent guy and he’s trying to be truthful and to be as clear as possible. I think it may be because the prosecution’s timeline depends on disregarding Kato’s testimony.
@Tasha Lee I don't need to watch his interviews. I've actually dealt with him PERSONNELLY! He's an idiot. And not only is he an idiot....but he's a lying deceitful SNAKE!
I feel so bad for Kato at this point because I feel like he was being put on trial himself because of what happened. He was just trying to do the right thing by answering the questions honestly to the best of his ability. Marcia Clark sure didn't help much in that regard. As far as I am concerned the prosecution blew this case on purpose because they didn't know what they were doing and that speaks VOLUMES
This is the popular narrative concerning Kato. Let me fill you in on the truth. He took money from OJ to keep quiet. Everyone gets on Marcia’s case about how she treated him, and I’m not fan of Marcia, but she did it because she knew he was lying based on statements from other people. The Prosecution knew exactly what they were doing, but painted themselves in a corner with a bad timeline, and had police who lied and planted evidence.
Marcia is doing it again. She tends to ostracise her own witnesses by being harsh with them. This doesn’t look good. Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.....didn’t anyone tell you that you attract more bees with sugar than with vinegar?
@@pommiebears youre absolutely right. the defense team was good, but people fail to realize this case resulted the way it did because of the incompetence of the prosecution and marcias practice tactics...
@@pommiebears lol @ misogynistic ... Seems to me Marcia suspects him of being evasive though, and there were some behind the scenes stuff indicating that, but you're right... It definitely doesn't look good in front of the jury, who wouldn't know that either
I have to comment again on just how fascinating the differences between teams is. Even all these years later it’s so stark. The defense, all of them, are just so much smoother and more prepared. They have a clear direction and story they’re telling with their clear and concise questions. Likable demeanor and professionalism. Marcia and Chris are constantly making faces when they’re frustrated, they can’t stay focused on a line of questioning, they can’t relate to the jury or even their own witnesses. The dream team should be charged with assault for the way they whooped these clowns. 😂😂😂
Wow Ms Clark is losing it, her questions about OJ and his Wifes relationship by trying to get I'mformation about the relationships between Kato, OJ and Nicoles marage problems, any man who would move into a house with no job or money to support himself.not a wise choice by an out of town stranger. Nicole just needed someone to watch her kids that she could trust. This is culture drama at it's best Ms Clark opened a new Avenue to explore their privacy through a second party this case is over because now the prosecution has to back off. Now the defence is pushing it but without bring Nicole's relationships into question. Now the States witness has just been transformed into a witness for the defence. This prosecution team was was out matched big time in this case. Ms Clark is always in bitch mode always sarcastic and rude to her witnesses except for the lieing police officers that would take the stand. She should be mad as hell at the I'mformation that they received from the police Dept this case was a rush to judgement ; the State thought they had a slam dunk.
@ Kenneth Charles - In addition to the worldwide attention of this trial, Ms. Clark's personal life was at a difficult point. She and her husband had recently divorced & she had two small boys to raise. Her ex-husband (sons' father) was also fighting her for full custody and alimony. It was a tough time for her and it definitely shows in her demeanor.
@@maryanng6841Ms Clark took on more than she could handle . I'll never understand why the DAs Office chose her in the first place other then her just being a woman prosecutor. Ms Clark was terrible she spent more time defending the actions of the police department in this case then on Nicole and Ronald Goldman, and they had the nerve to talk about race card. This was a bad choice of prosecutors ever the whole team was terrible.
The purpose of a trial is to sway the jury. Period. Marcia forgot that. She attacked the most likable witness that the long-suffering Jury had seen so far, often on things that seemed unimportant. This opened the door wide for Shapiro to ride in and just simply be a nice guy. How in the world she was blind to that says a lot about her character.
Maybe. ...I mean,..Watching your kids perform at a school play, and some mcdonalds, always puts me in the mood for killing my ex in a gruesome bloodbath too.
+sam robertson yep I would be mad that my kid perform bad at the school play and that mcdonalds mess up my order. Then that would make me go on a bloodbath.
Dude what are you talking about he's so Cool. He's nothing but a bumb taking advantage of a woman and living for Free and paying nothing nothing but a Free loader 🤨
the way Shapiro kept walking back and forth behind the prosecution was beautiful. It was f-ing with Clarke's mind big time. She was very agitated. Shapiro shined in his cross examination of Kaeto.
He was f’ng with everyone’s mind. He was brilliant. An AHole but brilliant. Someone said poor Kato! I agree. The Dude is just trying to do the right thing and live through it.
Marsha Clarke was clueless and desperate word has it she was a total bitch as some said. She was to hostile with the witnesses that gave the dream team an open invitation to victory
The prosecution BOTCHED this case! They got the timeline wrong. They got the whole narrative wrong. It was their ineptitude coupled with the defense's genius that got OJ aquitted. The sad part about this is all the layers that were missing. There is SOOOO much evidence that was never publicized. Check out my most recent vi deo. My guest shares some evidence that will BLOW YOUR MINDS!
@@dianemcdowell7378 noooooo! Kato was lying through his teeth. It's all an act. He's an actor. Don't let him fool you. He knows way more than he ever told. Like I said in my last reply. Go watch my recent vid. My guest has some details that will make your head spin.
I never realized how small the room was. Kardashian is one person over diagonally in front of Nicole’s sister. “Separate sides” are on top of each other
Kato was never afraid of OJ because if was he would have lied for him. OJ is no mob guy. The only thing OJ was connected to was the ABC sports network.. why isn't anybody talking about the Robert Blake murder case? I wonder why!!!
Kato was supposed to help out but did little. When she had to move out of her house and had no place for him to go he moved in with Kato. From there on she despised Kato for free loading.
Thats not how things happened. When she was going to move to Bundy she was planning on Kato moving to that house too. He would have been renting a room inside the house this time though and Simpson did not want him there so he offered his guesthouse for free. Nicole felt OJ manipulated Kato and was upset about it.
@@KeggysUtube Kato moved in with *_Kato_* ???? Which Kato? Kato the dog or Kato the human?? Did Kato the human move into Kato's kennel with Kato the dog, or did Kato the dog move onto Kato's guest house with Kato the human? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 ....🙄
You're just thirsty Denise... It's hard being a single mother when you're poor or working class, and you don't have help. Nicole was rich with a rich husband who lived nearby.
Ingur Lund I believe so, once they're done questioning a witness it's rare to call them back on different occasions. Unless new evidence is presented concerning them
@@MrBayspring Was he using opioids ? I always had the impression he smoked weed but never realised he was on a range of drugs. It probably explains a great deal though
I thought he said he had never done drugs at the grand jury. The hordes of stupid people on here see someone who is a bit different in demeanor and immediately think "drugs" because they know nothing else in life. I'm pretty sure he was making quite a bit of money already at the time of the murders/trial. He had talked about it somewhere, I forget where. A lot more money than I make. I think he was well on his way but people create stereotypes in their minds.
I could understand not thinking it's appropriate for a male to live with a single mom and her kids. What if he accidentally walks in on her naked or just gets put in any uncomfortable situation. What if the little daughter starts having a crush on Kato and starts following him around the house. There's all sorts of uncomfortable things that can happen
Every time I see the prosecution make mistakes and errors , I look at Johnny Cochran talking with OJ Simpson. They appear to be laughing at the prosecution . They must have known they won with Mark Fuhrman testimony.
they knew they won as soon as the jury which were mostly black people were seated. No way in LA right after the Rodney King riots was a black jury going to convict OJ Simpson. It was never going to happen. even if they were shown a video of OJ doing the murders. I lived in LA during that time. This wasn't about money, it was about payback for Rodney King.
The defense knew it was a rap when vanetter carried blood to the scene for 3 or 4 hours....when a Nazi discovered blood on bronco and found glove...when the Nazi lied and then pleaded the 5th...when 1.5 cc's of OJ's blood went missing...when EDTA was found in the blood...when several people on airplane including the pilot saw no cuts on his hands while sitting next to him and getting autographs...when Denise Brown and Steve Garvey's wife testified how absolutely crazy OJ was at the recital the lo and behold a video surfaced showed a smiling and beaming OJ hugging and kissing the Brown family including Denise at the recital.....when the gloves did not fit...whew! that's enough for now. But there's a lot more.
Nicole wanting Kato there was definitely partly because she wanted a male buffer between her and OJ. OJ saw that too and wanted Kato out of the house. If Kato lived there OJ may never even have tried to murder her at her house because he would have been afraid Kato would fight him
@@chrisovalantimcintyre9007For real, since Marcia wouldn't damn stop asking Kato why he thought OJ didn't want him in the house, Kato should've damn answered "I guess because OJ wanted to proceed with his plan to take down Nicole" , so Marcia would freakin shut it already
Is it me or does it appear that shapiro and clark seem to switch sides at some points, while shapiro is appearing to say oj was jealous, wanted to pull kato out of her house etc. N clark is constantly objecting???...
If you're impressed by Shapiro's kids gloves, in one of the first days of the trial there was a neighbor he was cross examining and he was so nice he eventually got up to the stand to show her a picture and asked her to read what it said 'because he forgot his glasses'. She kindly obliged. The guy was slick as shit.
I am not a lawyer but holy shit what do so many of these questions that Marcia is asking have to do with anything? She is grilling Kato About how much money he gave OJ for the food, and how much change he got back or didn’t get back huh?? What does that have to do with anything?
the whole point is to poke holes in OJ's statements...he claims that he needed money for tipping, yet he didn't make any attempt to break the 20's...inconsistencies with his stated intent.
Not only that but he could have easily broken a 100 at McDonalds and had plenty of tip money then. The prosecutors were trying to show he was establishing an alibi of sorts by going to Katos room to ask for the money; hence showing he was home that night.
Totally agree with both of you... Many questions have nothing to do with the actual murders... but questions can and will open up other doors to many other things like inconsistencies... I’m going through a trial myself and I’ve learned so much.
Asking for a five ,then getting a 20 then giving change back for the food, driving a Bentley (which is a rolls Royce) that's not strange enough for you.then driving to a McDonald's that's farther away.on the night you kill two and have a red eye to Chicago.Does he seemed to be preoccupied or on the edge or coked up .And throw in a limo to the airport.and then somehow hooking up with Glen Rodgers.(that's the guy that has killed and throat cut someone in every city he has lived in)
She's not just a "lawyer" she's a prosecuting attorney. She wasn't bad, I was going to get away with it no matter what, it's payback for Rodney King. Bozo!
shapiro purposely asked sustainable questions as a tactical advantage. it's also very reminiscent of f. lee bailey. you can see the influence he had on him. doesn't matter if the question is sustained, or if the judge tells the jury to disregard or if an answer is stricken.. it already when through the ears of the jury and depending on the question, left some doubt floating in the air.
romahnae totally agree! When he asks questions that are sustained and the people hear it they have to disregard it but like u say they already heard it, now it gives them room to wonder.
Estrella Tenorio also helps the witness answer the question. Because they’ve already heard what is being alluded to, they know how to answer the next question. It’s a sharp tactic.
16:54 Marsha Cllark is the worst attorney. She kept hammering the point trying to get an answer on why O j said he didn't want Kato to move in with Nicole on bundy. I don't understand what she was getting at anyway. Kato kept saying that o j thought it was inappropriate for him to be under the same roof with Nicole. She wouldn't accept that answer.
I would too if I got to live rent free on a huge property with my own apartment/separate house LOL. Kato’s in a tough spot here. It seems he is telling the truth which leans to the guilty side but Marcia Clark ruined it by badgering him when she didn’t get the answers she wanted. Kato was the ultimate couch surfer/hanger on, which made this whole dynamic extremely odd.
@@bleachedout Have you considered the fact that he didn’t want a bum living with his children avoiding possible molestation. Get your head out of your ass.
Kato was trying his best not to say "Look lady OJ was STILL paying Nicole's bills since his kids lived there. So if he wanted me to move into the pool house, I was fine with it" He should've also said "He didn't want me shacked up in a place where his kids laid their heads at night, it was awkward. Since he paid Nicole's rent, moving to the pool house was relatively a more stress-free arrangement for us both because technically he took care of the mortgages for both places.." what was she missing about this? The guy is filthy rich and a random dude living with his kids. Thats an easy one...
She had the right to be aggravated. It’s called loyalty. She was friends w Kato. Kato prob didn’t want O.J. as an enemy but certainly didn’t have a friendship w OJ like he did Nicole
@@strnglhld It was to get him out of Nicole's house, and to essentially, eliminate Nicole's friendship with Kato. When Kato moved in with Nicole, Nicole was angry, and, the arrangement also meant Kato wouldn't see Nicole as much. OJ was a very jealous person, and highly paranoid about who Nicole interacted with, especially men.
There was no mortgage on Bundy. Nicole owned it outright. He didn’t pay the bills there. He wouldn’t even let Nicole use his address for tax purposes. He threatened to tell the tax man that she owed them money. She got child support from him, but that was it.
THERE IS NO WAY THAT KATO WAS NOT ON DRUGS. LOOK AT HIS MOTIONS HES TOTALLY STRUNG OUT. A WEIRD LOOKING DUDE.I THINK HE WAS A HOOK UP FOR DRUGS FOR OJ. IM SURPRISED MARSHA NEVER ASKED KATO IF HE HAD A HOMOSEXUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH OJ BECAUSE THE RUMOR WAS THAT OJ WAS BISEXUAL.
Minx Minx he also has a fashion line called slacker ironically enough. It’s made him a millionaire. You got to thank OJ and the trial for paving way for what real reality TV is about
Omg, my friend has arthritis and it aches in the morning, yet after 5 minutes he could lay anyone out. 45 year old arthritis is not the same as 80 year old arthritis
All anybody has to do is listen to the 911 call from that evening. It is frightening for sure. The screaming is after he had already kicked the door in.
@@jodiefinney5072 How angry would you be if your daughter called you saying she seen mommy sucking a 🦆 in the living room. She brought many men in Orenthal home around there children. God I hope those poor children never been touched. She was a horrible mother.
I agree, they gave no motive for murder's. Nichole wrote a letter asking to get back together and OJ broke it off. I mean, he left Kato's presence at 9:30..Ron Goldmen clocked out at 9:45pm, he lived across the street from work, changed clothes, and walked to nichole's. He lived roughly 5-10 mins walking distance. That puts him at Nichole's 10:10-10:15 pm. If OJ had been practicing nijia attacks on people with a kitchen knife...i might buy he could accomplish a double homicide in 30 min; hide the murder weapon and his clothes, get back home without having any blood on him, and all over his house. I mean, why would he change from a sweat outfit and sneakers to dress socks and shoes to chop people up? Nutz!
Thank you! I have been saying that for years! Why would he have put on his dress socks and shoes to go kill them? (I would have sworn Kato said he was wearing sandals, no socks when they went to McDonalds, but I can't find it.) But he defiantly did not have on dress shoes. And how is it that if he cut his hand in the attacks, the glove was not cut, or had blood on it? (The one found at his residence) And why would he not just shoot her, he had plenty of guns. If it was a crime of passion then why did he just happen to have on a wool hat and gloves in June in California? Or the blood trail from the bronco to the foyer, why not a blood trail from where the glove was? It makes no sense. The person(s) who killed them is probably the same person who stabbed the other waiter (and friend) from the same restaurant. So nice to find another person who sees the socks as a clue. They were clearly tampered with, hence the stains, jumping off/on the bed and I believe chemicals they found on them.
+KeggysUtube well...the glove didn't have a cut because it came off, thats why he cut his finger to begin with. He had a plenty of hats and gloves too, not to wear around LA on a June night, but to travel with. He was a football commentator after all. There were only something like 100 pair of those Aris gloves sold during that time period, and he owned one of those pairs. The shoes and socks were dark in color and in my opinion thats why he wore them to the murder. Maybe didn't own a pair of black running shoes, or maybe thats what he could put on quickly. We will never know. However what we DO know is that the bloody shoe prints were from size 12 Bruno Maglis. Simpsons very own. Anyone who knows anything about a crime of passion knows that stabbing someone is much more personal than a gunshot. And this was personal indeed. Ron Goldman was killed only because he came upon the murder of Nicole already in progress. Simpson didn't expect him to be there. Never heard Kato say OJ had on sandals without any socks however he did say he had on a dark jogging suit.
Denise Munoz -- How do you feel now that he openly admitted to being the murderer? Why him confessing is even necessary is beyond me. His DNA was at the scene + The victims DNA was in his car. For any dirty police DNA planting to have happened, the police would've had to have somehow gotten his blood and then prayed to God that oj would somehow have cut himself by the time they saw him to discuss the murders... And miraculously, the day after the murders... He has a cut on his hand.... What a coincidence. It's been decades. Enough of the bs. He admitted it on camera!
9:38. So not only did o j ask kato for a five dollar bill Because he couldn't break a hundred. He got $20.from Kato but Kato had a pay for the food at mcdonald's as well. Also hard to believe you could get two meals for $20 At mcdonald's even back in 1994.
Kato knew exactly why he moved into OJ Simpson resident there's a lot more going on here than just Kato being a baby setter while Nicole Brown Simpson hangs out with whoever it was that she walked down to the front gate, because it wasn't Ronald Goldman because the front gate was broken according to the police report. Kato was happy to leave and OJ was happy to have him because it limited Nicole's ability to hangout at night with her friends. Kato was tired of being the scapegoat for Nicole's Brown Simpson's new lifestyle and that's why he jumped at the opportunity to move, but who would refuse free room and board, after all Kato was a free loader anyway, he wasn't paying Nicole Brown Simpson anything he was just somebody who she trusted, Kato, because he was a respectable person who didn't do drugs or hangout with a wild crew. OJ took the one person that Nicole Brown Simpson could trust away from her, but that didn't slow Nicole's lifestyle down, it really got even more. complicated then even OJ could imagine. There were so many people who couldn't be called in this case by the State and the Defense, because of their association with drugs and criminal behavior. Nicole's own sister was involved with a Mafia hit man that testified for the defense team. WTF....was really going on here?
Omg, Marcia! How many times did ask Kato the same question on why OJ didn't want Kato to move in with Nicole on Bundy!! Do you want him to start making stuff up?
Holy Son - I suspect Darden feels like he's been roped into something that was much more than he bargained for... and also the way things have gone and things he has said leads me to believe he might be.. protesting in a way, to the shenanigans of the defense (and/or others) and the circus this trial became, and was not allowing himself to be subjected to any more than necessary.. something like that. That's my impression anyway..
Do to covid, we all have been on Netflix, binge-watching everything, on there, and when we got to,"The People Versus OJ Simpson", that's when, we all came back here, on the tube, and start looking up all these old videos😆😆😆😆😆 #dontlieunowealldidit
On the surface it would seem stupid for Marcia Clark to question him that way, and also hypocritical when she seems annoyed at him with her personal.. idiosyncracies lol ; - But actually she seems to suspect him of being avasive aso, which seems to be supported by some behind the scenes stuff: The Chicago Tribune says in a March 27. 1995 article that Ito had granted the prosecution permission to treat Kato as "a hostile witness" .
Kato was actually held in contempt when he repeatedly refused to answer in front of the Grand Jury too fyi... He kept saying "on the advice of my attorney, i must respectfully decline to answer and assert my constitutional right to remain silent" , they threatened him with being held in contempt, he spoke to his lawyer, then said it again, and was held in contempt.
Rachel Marie Because you don’t like the prosecution, you’d vote not guilty? That isn’t why he was found innocent. He was found innocent because the jury wanted payback for the Rodney King beating, and subsequent acquittal of the cops involved. This case was lost at jury selection.
Rachel Marie OJ is as guilty as sin. He depends on people like you, who refuse to believe that he’s guilty, to keep him valid. He doesn’t even deny it anymore. Even the jurors have admitted it was payback. But, if you insist on his innocence, there’s really not much I can say.
0:59 For those saying that Kato seems to "act dumber than he is", i've seen things that give me that impression too, and here is one of them. He answers "there were words, umm.... " (-to that effect?) ... I seem to remember a similar thing reading the grand jury testimony too, and I've gotten that feeling in some other areas too, but i don't know... If that is the case and he's somehow putting on an act then things like this at 1:38 to 1:40 would be pretty good acting... (shrug)
@@williebrown2463 Apples and oranges. Clark did not ask Mark how he feels and then proceed to tell jury how he feels. Time after time o.j. lawyers by virtue of just speaking were testifying for o.j. without o.j. taking the stand.

1:38:11 - 1:40:04 Awwww man! Kato, you sweet man! This minute and a half or so, broke my heart and endeared this good soul even more to me, he was so close to tears and then I had this build up of liquid in my eyes all of a sudden. Its amazing how you could tell from the way his eyes changed that he was on the verge. I just want to hug him. People just view these witnesses as meat, not as humans who suffered loss and have been put through the ringer, emotionally and mentally, no matter the gender. Hell, I even felt bad for the dreamteam's pawn Rosa Lopez, even though I knew she was lying. I was a blubbering mess at certain parts of Denise's testimony at the pre-trial and I don't cry easily, despite my soft squishy heart. And no, I'm not being a "girl" falling for a crying man, I've been stoic when certain exes have bawled in front of me. But when its *_truly genuine_* I empathise and cry along with them. There's nothing wrong with a man who cries ❤
Vee Sea he is a genuinely good egg. I’ve always thought so. Nicole trusted him with the children too. And, apparently they loved him. Calling their dog Kato. That’s sweet, and a testimonial to their affection for him, I believe.
Vee Sea - Yeah, i have some questions about him, but seems genuine (unlike Denise in my opinion) and i felt for him there too lol . Don't apologize for your "soft squishy heart" :) And it's good you don't think there's anything wrong with a man crying. Tears fall out of these eyes too when i see something that is close to my heart like everytime i see a movie like "Freedom writers" :) I feel tempted to point out though that.. not crying when your exes were bawling may be a case of "familiarity breeds contempt" lol
