ELDER: IG report -- Imagine this level of bias during the O.J. Simpson case
Imagine what defence attorney Johnnie Cochran, during the O.J. Simpson murder trial, would have done with notes to and from LAPD lead detectives Tom Lange and Philip Vannatter in which they demeaned Simpson’s fans. Imagine a written exchange in which one detective said, “We’ll stop him!” Imagine Cochran’s opening and closing arguments, to say nothing of his cross-examination, if he’d had evidence similar to the kind of bias found in the Department of Justice inspector general’s report on the FBI’s handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation.
