Simpson trial. The prosecutor was scheduled to begin jury selection in the case early the following week, and the Governor expressed his firm belief that a racially representative jury panel would best serve the interests of the people of the State of California as well as the interests of justice. The prosecutor stated that while she agreed in principle, her job required her to take all necessary and proper steps to secure the conviction of the defendant in every criminal case, regardless of the case's political sensitivity. The Governor said that he did not see it that way, and that, for his part, he was confident that any government employee deliberately jeopardizing the peace and safety of the community as a whole for the sake of an ethical code would not advance far. The prosecutor admitted that the Governor had a point. The Governor was glad she saw it his way, and stated that he was grateful that she had taken time away from her busy schedule to chat. While this conversation never occurred, it would not be too surprising if it had. From almost every angle, the Simpson case had racially charged Andrew G.

Indeed, few are "oblivious to the interracial marriage at the heart of this story."' The accusation that Simpson was framed by Officer Mark Fuhrman because of racial animosity is by now well-known. Even before the trial, it had been discussed in diverse publications ranging from "an ultralurid tabloid, The Globe, to the most up-market mass-circulation magazine in America, The New Yorker." 2 The racial tension surrounding the case was such that on July 19th, district attorney Gil Garcetti felt it necessary to meet with fifteen black leaders who were concerned that Simpson would not get a fair trial; they urged him not to seek the death penalty. 3 Even at that stage, opinion polls confirmed that the O.J. Simpson trial had significant racial overtones. One poll showed that, while 62 percent of white Californians thought it was "likely" that Simpson committed the murders, only 38 percent of black Californians did. 4 In light of this disparity, it is striking to note that the jury that the prosecution finally accepted was 70 percent black, in a city where only 10 percent of the population is African-American.' After this jury was empaneled, U.C.L.A. law professor Peter Arenella declared that "the defense should be dancing in the streets."6 Prosecutors also had reason to feel relieved, though they probably did not feel that way at the time. With the dust from the Rodney King riots just beginning to settle, it is likely that the O.J. trial posed a real threat to public safety and property. As two young black men told one reporter, "L.A. gonna burn to the ground if O.J. convicted." 7 Empaneling an all-white jury would have only exacerbated the effects of a conviction.

Critics, however, argue that the Guidelines merely shift the locus of discretion from the courts to prosecutors. 4 According to these critics, while inconsistency and injustice might

A rapid disappearance of granules from the reticulocytes was observed over 24 hr. Simultaneously with the decrease in granules, soluble ferritin accumulated in the media and siderotic granules developed in monocytes. The disappearance of the granules from the reticulated-siderocytes was oxygen-dependent and the loss of granules and the accumulation of ferritin in the media were both prevented by the addition of cyanide or dinitrophenol.
