The jury found in favor of the plaintiff but that did not mean that OJ was convicted of any crime.

How do the rich influence politics in the US?
The rich have greater influence on politicians because they either give greater support or deal greater damage to reelection campaigns. The "1%" also control a massive amount of the airwaves, giving them great sway over public opinion as steered and reflected by the media. The rich also are more likely to run for office themselves, because running for almost any office is an expensive affair.

What is forum shopping?
Forum shopping occurs when a plaintiff has a choice of several jurisdictions in which to file a lawsuit and he choose one in which he feels he feels he has the best chance at winning. For example, where the plaintiff and defendant reside in different states the plaintiff could sue in a state court in the state where he resides, or where the defendant resides or in federal court if the amount in controversy exceeds the jurisdictional amount to qualify for the federal court's diversity jurisdiction. The plaintiff looks to file in whichever court he feels best suits his purposes, usually a state or federal court in the state of his location. This will make the suit easier and less expensive for him to pursue and harder and more expensive for the defendant to handle. The plaintiff might also feel he will get a more friendly court with a judge and jury of his own state against a person from another.

What is Georgia's last clear chance rule under its comparative negligence laws?
Nothing in this post constitutes legal advice. Georgia generally applies a modified comparative negligence approach in apportioning fault in negligence actions. A plaintiff can recover his damages from a negligent defendant discounted by the plaintiff's percentage of fault; however, when the plaintiff's fault is greater than the defendant's the plaintiff cannot recover. So, where a plaintiff's injuries amount to $100,000, and the plaintiff is found to be 30% at fault and the defendant 70%, the plaintiff can recover in the amount of $70,000. If the plaintiff were 51% at fault and the defendant 49%, the plaintiff would recover nothing. Although Last Clear Chance is a doctrine more commonly associated with contributory negligence jurisdictions (where any negligence on the part of the plaintiff is a complete bar to recovery), Georgia preserves it and applies it both to the plaintiff and the defendant. Notwithstanding the comparative negligence rule discussed above, if a plaintiff, through the exercise of reasonable care, could have avoided the consequences of the defendant's prior negligence but failed to do so, he will be completely barred from recovery, regardless of the defendant's percentage of fault. Conversely, even though a plaintiff's negligence contributes to the incident, if the defendant had the last clear chance to avoid harm, but failed to do so because he did not exercise reasonable care, the defendant can be held liable to the full extent of plaintiff's damages (i.e., not discounted for plaintiff's degree of fault).
