 CNN - Lawyer tells jury: 'There's a killer in this courtroom' - Jan. 21, 1997
On the opening day of closing arguments in the wrongful-death lawsuit filed against Simpson by the families of his ex-wife and her friend, Petrocelli told jurors that Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were speaking "from the grave" and pointing to the former football star as their killer.
Petrocelli said the defense has offered no explanation as to why Simpson's blood was found at the murder scene, and he dismissed the idea that the evidence might have been contaminated, as the defense has claimed.
Petrocelli scoffed at Simpson's inability to remember how he cut his hand, accused him of lying about his whereabouts at the time of the murders, and noted that "50 or 60 people have to be lying or mistaken" if Simpson's story is correct.

Of course, what the lawyers were doing was preparing to exclude fl people from the jury, something Petrocelli claims not to have done--protesting just a bit too much--because to use his peremptory strikes to systematically exclude people by race is unconstitutional, and would be grounds for appeal.
