It was a weird case. The infamous "glove doesn't fit" claim is because of sneaky lawyer's suggestion that OJ stop taking certain medication that caused his hand to swell up before trying on the glove. No one caught on that and it's way too late for prosecutors to fix that oversight.

I dunno I think more damaging to the case was that the defense caught the lead detective in a lie and pretty positively proved he was a massive racist. Whether you think OJ did it or not, the police investigations credibility was destroyed when Mark Fuhrman perjured himself on the stand, and the defense threw it right back in his face

People forget that part. The jury was not stupid, and it was no glove that found OJ not guilty. The black jury was sick and tired of the way the system, the police, was treating (unjustly) and killing black people (for no reason) so they let OJ go in retaliation.

Often depends upon the breakdown of the votes, if 11 vote to acquit and there’s a kooky hold out then it’s a good sign that it’s not a good case to retry. But let’s say there’s a questionable evidence ruling from the judge that kept out critical evidence, or maybe it didn’t get in because an assistant attorney screwed up meeting discovery obligations, or a witness vanished at the last minute - then they may be very tempted to retry the case and fix the problems that scuttled their case the 1st time.

Criminal law is really hard because of the "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard of proof. Juries will let someone off unless you can absolutely prove that they were in the exact place at the exact time with the means and motive to commit the crime. In a case like this, where the body was found a long time after death in a car in bad condition with a defendant who does concerts and tours in lots of places, it's tricky to even prove exactly when and where the murder happened, more or less if the defendant was there to do it.
That being said, if a dismembered dead body is found in your car, that certainly doesn't look good. If you have a hit song called "Romantic Homicide" that has lyrics that seem to describe the murder, now there's an argument that you admitted it. I've got a feeling the prosecution is going to end up betting on that admission being the key, unless they found evidence of the actual murder site.

No statute of limitations on murder, and you only get one chance to charge and try someone for a crime, so if you don’t have an open and shut case, you risk not getting the conviction. You got all the time in the world to build the case, so have everything ready before filing criminal charge.

Less than a year is good for homicides, which have an unlimited, indefinite statute of limitations. Homicides need the most proof, you shouldn't go in to the grand jury with bare minimum evidence, or even "more likely than not." Take your time, do it right, especially if you aren't going to get a confession.
The key was the "friend" who they got a warrant to drag him back to LA to testify to the grand jury. He said later he spilled all he knew, so he probably had some important info. Then the PD probably had to confirm everything, see if they could get corroborating physical evidence.
I don't think this took a long time, given the circumstances, the lack of a confession and reported level of body decomposition.

Most formulaic shows have this weakness. Usually there's one case that is carried as a b plot across several episodes, every a plot gets resolved in one. In reality they have a bunch of cases worked in parallel with different level of progress, some getting cold. NYPD Blue at least had them interrupt their current case to go to court for cases from previous months or years, law & order is on a rocket docket it seems (D*** Wolf would probably claim the timelines overlap but that breaks their b plot timing).

A buddy of D4vid or coworker who reportedly has been hanging out with him while he was hanging out with this girl. Lemme see if I can get details from one of the legal channels on YT. I remember vaguely, but I don't want to give inaccurate details.
Edit: so Neo was a friend, frequently seen at the house, in social media pictures, around. There was a trip that apparently D4vid went that they thought was related to her disappearance, and the police believed that Neo was in the car. They subpoenaed Neo to testify before the grand jury. He failed to appear. He was arrested in another state and taken back to LA to testify, and he did but reportedly it was a very short testimony, so people thought he took the 5th and didn't cooperate. But as of a month ago, based on his social media posts, Neo has distanced himself completely and reportedly cooperated with police, spilled the beans of everything he knew.

If he is innocent, he is the guiltiest innocent person to ever have been arrested. I watched the Rotten Mango Podcast about a few weeks after her body was found. I've watched a lot of true crime related stuff as have a lot of people but I have never seen so much circumstantial evidence created over years by the alledged murder themselves. He was seemingly obsessed with her. The trial will be crazy I'm sure.

To me it seems like they were really trying to lock everything down for an ironclad case so this skidmark couldn't walk. Apparently there was a lot of uncooperative parties involved as well.

Prosecutors want to make sure they have the most solid case they possibly can before they pounce on the suspect. They jump too early, and he shuts up completely and the possibility of gathering any further evidence a lot harder. you end up with either a hung jury, or even worse an acquittal due to lack of evidence. They were probably watching him like a hawk the entire time, and may have even been monitoring his online activity, to see if they could pull any more evidence off of him. Who knows, maybe a friend of his flipped and was a CI.

He was on tour for months when they found her body. That is why a lot of the public also didn't think he did it at first because he wasn't in LA/The US. They needed more evidence to link that he is the one who killed her.

Allegedly it has been taking a while to confirm her cause of death due to how her body was found, and people close to him weren't cooperating with the police for questioning. Seems like they needed to confirm she was murdered.
He also has the funds for an excellent defense team - which means the police department needs enough evidence to be sure the jury finds him guilty beyond reasonable doubt. Due to how much data we know was deleted after her body was found (like his Discord channel), it probably also took a while to find all the digital evidence as well.
I imagine we're gonna hear some disgusting details once the trial starts. Poor girl

If I catch someone with their hand in my pocket, taking out my wallet and notify the authorities who happen to be standing right next to me watching the whole thing, theoretically, how many months should I expect them to take to determine if a crime has been committed?

That depends on so many things. How are they charged, staffing levels etc.
For example in my city, u could be robbed today and u won't get an appointment with the prosecutor to pursue charges for 3 weeks at least.
Then it's gotta be reviewed (you have to bring the police report and evidence) then might be charged, then warrant issued then u gotta wait for the person to be picked up (if ever) Then u go to court.

people panic when tragedy happens and they make some of the dumbest decisions ever. If this was an accident, not coming forward screwed himself. Likely, it wasn’t an accident and that is why he didn’t come forward. No idea why he returned to the states tho. That was pure dumbb.

Crazy how this dude went from being on the up and up to being a murderer and most likely life in prison. I first heard his stuff on an episode of Invincible (one of my favorite shows) and was hooked on his song. Looked him up on YouTube and liked some of his other stuff too…and now…yeah…Shame he turned out like this
