"IF IT DOESN'T FIT, YOU MUST ACQUIT!"
This independent first season of a 3-part series chronicles 'The Trial of the Century' with a riveting look at the legal teams battling to convict or acquit Heisman-winning O. J. Simpson of double homicide. It explores the chaotic behind-the-scenes dealings and maneuvering on both sides of the court, and how a combination of prosecution overconfidence, defense shrewdness, and the LAPD's tumultuous history with the city's African-American community gave a jury what it needed: reasonable doubt.
