Attorney Carl Douglas, former managing partner of the Johnnie Cochran Law Firm and original member of O.J. Simpson’s legal dream team, spoke exclusively with Reel Urban News about Simpson’s double murder trial and the new FX original limited series, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story.

“I’m interested to see as anyone would be given that there is some moment of history in which they were involved. I’m not sure what the spin is going to be. I fear it’s a retread effort to try to justify the outrage of much of America for the verdicts. But I’m going to be watching with interest to see how close it comes to the actual truth.”
