He was the first investigator on the bloody scene. He was the first guy to take the fall. Now, he is the first to tell the whole truth—and nothing but the truth.

For O. J. Simpson to get away with murder, an innocent cop had to be destroyed—that was the strategy of the Simpson defense. But as certainty about Simpson's guilt grew, so did outrage about the scapegoating of Detective Mark Fuhrman. Fuhrman knew how the police mishandled and overlooked key evidence. He knew where the prosecutors went wrong. Now the former LAPD detective tells his side of the story in this damning exposé.

In this blockbuster book, Fuhrman takes listeners on a detective's journey through the crucial first twenty-four hours of the investigation. We uncover not only the bloody glove but explosive new evidence recorded by Fuhrman and his partner at the scene but astonishingly never presented at the trial. Fuhrman's own hand-drawn maps of the crime scene and his reconstruction of the murders leave no doubt about what really happened at South Bundy Drive on June 12, 1994. These new revelations about the incompetence and corruption that pervaded the "trial of the century" set the record straight.
