...Kelly and Daniel M. Petrocelli, lead lawyers for the families of murder victims Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, who hope to hold O.J. Simpson liable for the deaths, expect to admit some 2,000 pieces of evidence, including the bloody glove. Nearly 350 witnesses will be called, including Kato Kaelin and Mark Fuhrman, though the judge has ruled that Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden will not testify. Both sides estimate that it will take at least four months to try the case. Then again, Simpson I was expected to last only six months, not the nine months it ultimately...

...SIMPSON TRIAL: Granted there were moments--days, weeks--of soporific testimony and inscrutable deconstruction. But Simpson's double-murder trial made for irresistible television. It gave us great characters: Kato Kaelin, Rosa Lopez and all those posturing lawyers. It provided a law-school primer on courtroom tactics (and, more often, courtroom theatrics). And with the opening of the envelope that contained the verdict, it delivered the single most suspenseful moment in television history...
