The Los Angeles prosecutor who tried and failed to convict O.J. Simpson says the infamous murder trial would probably end in a hung jury if it were held today.
"Honestly, I don't know whether he would be convicted today," Marcia Clark said in an interview with Dateline NBC scheduled to air Sunday.
Clark cites racial mistrust exposed in the wake of police-involved shootings around the country and made the question of how law enforcement treats African-Americans one of the most contentious issues of the day.
She has long contended that wariness of the Los Angeles Police Department and anger over the brutal Rodney King beating figured in the acquittal of Simpson after a five-month trial in 1995 that transfixed the world.
