I always thought that the murder trial was more of a media event than a study in justice, and was surprised that he was declared innocent - based on what appeared in the British press his guilt seemed the more likely option - but I wasn't there, so I don't know for sure.
That said the whole "If I Did It" adventure was unsavoury and distasteful, and this case would seem to indicate that he was a nasty person in other areas of his life.
Can't say any of it shocks me, and I suppose he'll never work again in the media (unless he finds God in prison and becomes an evangelist for turning your life around - but that pre-supposes he publicly confesses to EVERYTHING that he's done wrong in the past, and I don't see that happening)
