	'''Summary''': This is the closing argument of an infamous murder trial ~~given~~ by Johnnie Cochren, lead lawyer for the defense. The defendant, a famous American football player and actor, was accused of the murder of his ex-wife and her friend. The case against him was quite strong: including DNA, motive, and strong witnesses. Notice how the lawyer uses a short, catchy phrase as one of his themes: "If the gloves don't fit, you must acquit." Also note how he effectively transforms this case into a racial issue, thus proposing that a vote against the defendant is a vote for racism. The defendant was found not guilty.
