I always read between the lines for clues on many things.
A between-the-lines activity of OJ attorney Barry Scheck
was that he began a non-profit activist group of law school
students called THE INNOCENCE PROJECT immediately after
the OJ case, to help free wrongly convicted prisoners, many
of them on death row. I think he saw how easy it was for
someone to be wrongly prosecuted.
I believe that all of OJ's Dream Team attorneys risked their
reputations to defend OJ because they knew the true nature
of his plight. To me, this raises an ethical question of whether
the lawyers were participating in obstruction of justice, though
they believed their immediate task was just.
