We all know that O.J. Simpson was found not guilty. In an alternate universe where the entire trial was exactly the same--all the evidence, exhibits, testimony, rulings, et cetera--but where O.J. was found guilty, what would his best grounds for appeal have been? Surely his "Dream Team" of lawyers was thinking about this during the trial...
What would he have appealed? How likely is it that he could have had the conviction set aside? What else may have happened? (And what was the likely sentence that'd have been imposed?)
The #1 ruling that comes to mind is the amount of prior domestic violence evidence that was allowed in. He was charged with a single incident, the murder, but the prosecution was allowed to elicit numerous prior instances of domestic violence. Arguably, had he been convicted, the defense could argue that the evidence led the jury to believe he had a propensity to be violent, so he "must" have done this too.
