Simpson on kidnapping and armed robbery charges. Judge Jackie Glass decided prosecutors had a "race-neutral" reason for dismissing the potential juror. The judge made no official mention of the jury's makeup, but prosecutors revealed in court that no blacks were on the jury. A black man and black woman, however, are among six alternate jurors." All of the above is quoted in an article thanks to CNN; the link can be found <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/09/12/simpson.jury/index.html" title="here" rel="nofollow"> I do not believe someone went through and selected a pure white jury; jury is usually selected at random therefore I think this jury was as well. Especially considering the fact that they had a few black folks ready in the alternate lineup. All that aside; a jury is a jury no matter what the race; whats to say the black folks will or will not make a difference (simply meaning what if they were to voice the same opinion: ie guilty) would it matter? As for your comments, if a jury is more worried about racial issues than the court preceeding at hand, they certainly don't need to be sitting in as a juror. “A jury of nine women and three men — none of them black — was seated Thursday for the trial of O.J.

He had an ALL WHAT JURY this time b/c folks were upset at his last jury (remember the evidence was tainted and mishandled) that's how he got off. I would not want to the on the Goldman's wrong side, they will follow you to hell and wait by the toilet for you. I'm an African American and do not understand why there is not outrage at the fact of an all white jury, especially due to the past (i.e., hangings, killing of black folk like it was any given Sunday, etc.). The case needs to be thrown out b/c of the all white jury. People you should scream about this. OJ is an Ahole no doubt but an ALL WHITE JURY that's scares me b/c you can do it to him and you sure would do it to me. Ask any black person over the age of 60.
