First and foremost, I, vaguely familiar with the history of this case, knew this episode will be a big turnover. But I still didn't expected how big of a turnover it would be.

Whatever you think of O.J. guild or innocence, this episode was more than that. Prior to this episode I thought that tapes were just a collection of 'n' world sayed by Furhman that didn't have much of a meaning except that using them was a perjury (it is just a world, right? Nothing harmful about that). But the context was WAY, WAY WORSE.

I am not the biggest advocate of political correctness and I think can take a lot, but all of replayed on these tapes was almost physically painful experience. How can this man be taken even a bit seriously and even be invited to Fox News is a big question-mark. I am glad that this series showed him in a full light and didn't make him victim and I hope this will worsen his public perception.

Anyway, this episode was the best so far in terms of screen writing and drama, I am looking forward for the finale episode.

This show has been very good so far but episode 9 really takes it all to an entire new level. I was on the edge of my seat watching this one. As we near the finale of the court case and the season, unexpected twists come at us from every angle.

You can just feel the energy, the tension as you watch this episode transpire. The score for this episode is atmospheric, causing the viewer to feel stressed, tensed, and worried as the trial continues on, the city abuzz in a fervor. The characters are at their breaking point and the actors perform wonderfully in this episode. It's tense, it's gritty, it's everything I've been looking for in this series and this episode finally delivers to the viewer the full package.

The unspeakable act has seen sun light yet... Mark Fuhrman, who is currently commentator for Fox News, had left a trace leading to a collective conspiracy, no; collective hate which had allegedly been going on for some time without a solid proof...

Alright, not every LAPD officer could be said to be racist; but this one person, as it was screened, could play a huge role in all these that concerned and led O.J. Simpson case to close as "not guilty" verdict!

The episode opened so well showing TV shows like O.J. trial is the only news worthy of watching in the USA. Why is that?.. We mean, it is so cast away a country that it's largest problems are either health care, or crime inside the country... Not like the Middle East where people gets killed for oils either by their own countrymen or by the imperialist forces outside...

Therefore, this racial dissimulation and hypocrisy in the USA against the black people, as shown in the episode, could keep the whole USA occupied and cloud the judgement of both sides...

The thing is, the verdict may not satisfy any side. If O.J. found not guilty, then the matter may not be revealed as to who killed Mr. Ron and Ms. Nicole for sure. But if O.J. is convicted, then the system may have imprisoned an innocent person as Mark Fuhrman, the key witness, had messed it up by having grudge against all the black people to the extent of having genocidal thoughts and deceiving the court about it.

To have and to hold cannot necessitate the skin colour as well as sentence it to a certainty. So the protesters most of whom are of black people takes it to the streets... This is a national matter now.

Overall, the show simulates it all very well not showing violence but keeping us on the edge. So clever!

I give this episode a "9,4." Yep!..

"O ye who have believed! Be steadfast witnesses for Allah in equity, and let not hatred of any people seduce you that ye deal not justly. Deal justly, that is nearer to your duty. Observe your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is Informed of what ye do." (Chapter: 5 "The Table spread with Food", Verse: 8)

This Verse of the Gracious Koran alone says it all. Amen.
