Good court drama, but not of the same calibre as the series, as the level of litigation in the court, including closing statements (like asking the jury to acquit in order to please the defence attorney is ridiculous), is mediocre at best.
As for the actual story, am not sure what is based on fact and what isn't, but it is just unfortunate that this crime took place parallel to other high profile cases and therefore a lot of its handling did not happen in the name of truth and justice, but rather to score points for the losing side, to finally manage to convict someone, regardless of who and why, to balance for all the previous acquittals of high profile cases - they messed up with OJ so they had to find an escape goat to show that the system works. This is a standard case of politics getting in the way of justice and what is also appalling how judges can get away with bias, even in such a heavily publicised trial...
