Well Darius facts matter. LAPD has a long history of being well known for racism. Mark Fuhrman LAPD investigator of OJ's murder case said: "'We have no n****** where I grew up...People there don't want n****** in their town. People there don't want Mexicans in their town. 'They don't want anybody but good people in their town, and anyway you can do to get them out of there that's fine with them. We have no n****** where I grew up...'" etc. etc. 
One major reason the jury acquitted OJ. Need I go on?
