Mistrial of the Century: A Private Diary of the Jury System on Trial

Written by Tracey Kennedy, Judith Kennedy and Alan Abrahamson

Narrated by Tracey Kennedy and Judith Kennedy

A behind-the-scenes look at the O.J. Simpson murder trial.

In this insider' s look at one of the 20th century' s most infamous trials, ex-juror Tracy Kennedy discloses what life was like for himself and his wife in the days leading up to the O.J. Simpson trial, and how it subsequently differed so much from their expectations. Kennedy reveals what happened during the trial and sequestration, a sequestration that turned the lives of a normal, married couple into an emotional hell. Much focus is given to the Kennedys' lives after Tracy's eventual dismissal from the jury, delving into the immense psychological impact the "Trial of the Century" had on the couple and how they dealt with it. Their account raises the thought-provoking question of who suffered the most during this trial and why the answer points to the jurors and not the defendant, O. J. Simpson.
