Simpson: Blood, Lies &amp; Murder<\/em> revisits the trial of the century.\u00a0 It explores evidence collected (some which wasn&#8217;t used in the trial) at the murder scene as well as OJ&#8217;s house and features current interviews with Tom Lange, Rod Englert, Kato Kaelin and Allan Park.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tom Lange was the lead detective investigating the murders of Nicole Kidman and Ron Goldman. Lange kept a personal case journal which is shared for the first time.\u00a0 \u00a0Rod Englert is a Crime Scene Reconstructionist.\u00a0 He&#8217;s an expert in blood splatter and able to use evidence from murder scenes to determine how the killings took place. Kato Kaelin was a material witness who lived in OJ&#8217;s guest house.\u00a0 Allan Park was the limo driver who took OJ to the airport the night of the murders.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The murders are discussed in detail.\u00a0 Graphic crime scene photos are shown.\u00a0 There is a recreation of the murders, based on the evidence collected.\u00a0 The prosecution and defense strategies are discussed.\u00a0 Evidence that didn&#8217;t make it into the trial is shared.\u00a0 The &#8220;not guilty&#8221; verdict is discussed and reasons the jury went that way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong style=\"font-size: inherit; color: var(--text-color); font-family: var(--text-font);\">Thoughts (beware of spoilers)\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I cannot stress enough how disturbing the crime scene photos are.<em> \u00a0O.J. Simpson: Blood, Lies &amp; Murder\u00a0<\/em>doesn&#8217;t shy away from sharing them in order for viewers to understand the brutality and overkill of the murderer.\u00a0 This documentary is not for the squeamish.\u00a0 I had mixed feelings about the use of the photos.\u00a0 Without them viewers have a sanitized version of the crime.\u00a0 Seeing them and the brutality involved is tough.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I remember when I heard that OJ was a suspect in the double murder case which involved his wife.\u00a0 Like many Americans, I didn&#8217;t believe OJ, the great athlete and movie star, would do such a thing.\u00a0 Then there was the slow speed chase, followed by the trial.\u00a0 I watched with interest every day.\u00a0 The twists and turns were unbelievable.\u00a0 So was the verdict&#8230; at least for many.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The prosecution made terrible decisions along the way, while the defense seemed to make every &#8220;right&#8221; choice.\u00a0 After watching\u00a0<em> O.J. Simpson: Blood, Lies &amp; Murder,\u00a0<\/em>OJ&#8217;s guilt seems so obvious.\u00a0 Then again, I didn&#8217;t buy in to the conspiracy theories at the time of the trial.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em style=\"color: var(--text-color); font-family: var(--text-font); font-size: inherit;\"><strong><em>O.J.
