The definitive account of the O.J. Simpson trial, The People v. O.J. Simpson is a prodigious feat of reporting that could only have been written by the foremost legal journalist of our time.

Writing less than a year after the infamous verdict, Jeffrey Toobin explores the secret dealings & manoeuvring on both sides of the case, & how a combination of the prosecution’s over-confidence, the defence’s shrewdness, & the Los Angeles Police Department’s incendiary history with the city’s African-American community, gave a jury what it needed: reasonable doubt.

Rich in character, as propulsive as a legal thriller, this enduring narrative continues to shock & fascinate with its candid depiction of the human drama that upended the world.

The People v. O.J. Simpson tells the whole story, from the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson & Ronald Goldman to the ruthless gamesmanship behind the scenes of the trial of the century.
