A while back PBS Frontline had a doc on the anniversary of the verdict; towards the end, they get "regular people" commentary - one bit that stuck with me was from a barbershop in downtown LA:
"[N]one of the customers believes that O.J. Simpson was innocent. But they agree on the fact that the police behaved as they've come to expect. "They framed a guilty man -- that's all it was," says the barber."
