He argued that Fuhrman had planted the bloody glove on Simpson’s estate as part of a racially motivated plot against Simpson, which could be traced back to Fuhrman’s first encounter with the interracial couple in 1985. Although there was no evidence to suggest that Fuhrman had planted the glove, his perjury about his use of the word “nigger” was widely seen as severely damaging the prosecution’s credibility in front of the mostly black jury (especially in the wake of the Rodney King trial) and has been cited as one of the main reasons Simpson was acquitted.
