At that time, Simpson's ace legal team argued that for someone like Simpson, who lacks training and experience as an "amateur assassin," using a firearm would be the best choice; there was no need to slit throats with a blade.
This method of committing a crime not only leaves oneself covered in blood but also leaves undeniable "blood evidence" at the murder scene, in the white Bronco, and in one's own home.
The defense, however, suggested that Nick might have been killed by a drug cartel or the Mafia, as Nick had a history of drug use. If she purchased drugs in large quantities and failed to pay on time, the Mafia might well have taken deadly action, and throat slitting is a murder method commonly used by gangsters.
Furthermore, the relationship between Goldman and Nicole was not ordinary; someone once saw him driving Nicole's expensive white Ferrari, worth $150,000, around the streets.
What is more suspicious is that from 1993 to 1995, four employees were either murdered or mysteriously disappeared from the Italian restaurant where Goldman worked.
In the US judicial system, relying solely on indirect evidence to convict a defendant is never an easy task.
This is because isolated indirect evidence usually cannot accurately infer a defendant's guilt.
A series of indirect evidence must mutually corroborate each other, forming a tight logical system, ruling out all possibilities of the defendant's involvement in the crime, to accurately confirm the case.
Furthermore, the collection of indirect evidence and the relationship between the indirect evidence and the facts of the case should be reasonable, coherent, and consistent.
If conflicts or loopholes arise, it indicates that the indirect evidence is not reliable and cannot serve as a conclusive basis for conviction.
For example, in the Simpson case, one of the indirect pieces of evidence presented by the prosecution was the discovery of the defendant's bloodstains at the murder scene.
However, due to Detective Vannatter carrying Simpson's blood sample around the murder scene for three hours, the credibility of this indirect evidence was greatly diminished.
In the Simpson case, as all the prosecution's evidence was indirect evidence, it was crucial for the defense attorneys to strictly discern and scrutinize these "corroborative evidence" as a key part of the lawsuit.
Disappointingly, the prosecution's evidence presented to the court was full of flaws and difficult to reconcile, allowing the defense to produce relatively sufficient evidence to prove to the jury that Simpson might not be the murderer.
On October 3, 1995, at 10 a.m. in the western time zone of the United States, as the verdict for the Simpson case was about to be announced, the entire United States came to a halt.
President Clinton put off military and state affairs; former Secretary of State Baker postponed his speech; Wall Street trading was light; long-distance phone lines were silent and still.
Thousands of police officers, fully armed and like facing a formidable foe, were scattered across the streets and alleys of Los Angeles.
CNN statistics showed that approximately 140 million Americans watched or listened to the final verdict of the "trial of the century."
The jury's final verdict was—Simpson was not guilty.
This classic case fully highlighted the inadequacies of the US judiciary and laid the foundation for a gambling mogul to legally acquire those black people's patent rights!
Luo Chao's thoughts gradually returned to the car, where Zuo Dahai was still recounting his story.
"When that gambling mogul obtained the patent rights to that game, from then on, he injected a fresh stream into the gambling world!"
"Because before that gambling mogul, gamblers in the gambling field had never seen such an interesting, thrilling gambling game!"
"At that time, from the gambling masters who had mixed in the field for many years to the rookie gamblers who had just entered, as long as someone guided them, everyone could play this latest and most advanced gambling game in the world!"
"And I was one of those rookie gamblers, and my guide was my brother who had just returned from abroad!"
As Zuo Dahai spoke to this point, he was already sobbing uncontrollably, evidently recalling some painful past as he recounted his story!
"Brother Zuo, wipe your tears and take your time to speak. We're only halfway to Huahai City's First People's Hospital. Take your time, I'm not in a rush," Luo Chao said, pulling out a tissue from his pocket and handing it to Zuo Dahai.
Zuo Dahai took the tissue handed to him by Luo Chao and wiped his face vigorously, causing a mass of snot and tears to be wiped off.
At this moment, Luo Chao noticed that the tissue he handed to Zuo Dahai awkwardly fell apart!
Yes, it fell apart!
Luo Chao realized that the tissue he gave to Zuo Dahai, after absorbing a little of Zuo Dahai's snot and tears, turned into a pile of shredded paper, unlike other tissues which would just become a ball.
The occurrence of this phenomenon suggests that the tissue Luo Chao handed to Zuo Dahai was of substandard quality!
Luo Chao couldn't understand it, since he had spent a full two dollars on this pack of Breeze brand tissues.
A two-dollar pack of tissues is considered top-notch, and in theory, there shouldn't be an issue of subpar quality!
However, much to Luo Chao's surprise, it really happened, right under the eyes of the great Soldier King of the Dragon Fang Team, Luo Chao!
"How could this be!" Luo Chao felt a sense of puzzlement, meanwhile, he picked up the pack of tissues in his hand and closely examined it before his eyes.
Meanwhile, Tang Tianyi pulled out two tissues from her pocket and handed them to Zuo Dahai.
Of course, this wasn't because Tang Tianyi suddenly had a breakthrough and knew to offer tissues to comfort someone else's wounded heart.
The reason Tang Tianyi handed the tissues to Zuo Dahai was entirely because Zuo Dahai was sniffling uncontrollably, seriously distracting him from driving.
In face of this situation, Tang Tianyi, using her purely rational mind, analyzed that the best and most cost-effective solution was to offer her tissues to Zuo Dahai.
This way, Zuo Dahai could wipe his tears and snot clean and drive with peace of mind, without being distracted and causing a sudden car accident with tragic consequences.
Of course, if Tang Tianyi knew that when Luo Chao was drag racing with Lin Yun on Xia Mingshan Mountain, despite the disastrous car crash, Luo Chao managed to save both himself and Lin Yun safely, she likely wouldn't have given her tissues to Zuo Dahai.
On the contrary, Tang Tianyi might even hope for an actual car accident.
This way, Luo Chao could save himself while ensuring his own life safety, and Zuo Dahai's car would presumably be immediately scrapped.
Tang Tianyi would surely think this would be the perfect result of killing two birds with one stone!
