| In Mark Fuhrman's new book, he can't resist always painting himself as the smartest guy in the room |
"A badly damaged human describes Mark nicely. Clearly, he wants more than anything to rise above his O.J. trial persona. Unlikely he ever will though.
"I don't have a problem with his quasi-criminalist posture as he describes assorted, well publicised cases. And what the hell, nobody is going to bother to read about Tootsie Guthrie when they can read about JonBenet...
"And he does write surprisingly well. He creates an intersting story. However, a whistle-blower is never a very attractive character. And Mark's view of his given profession is indeed, not pretty. Plus, I've never been convinced Mark's motivation in his upwardly mobile LA police career didn't open the door to a bit of evidence tampering. And I'm not sure how he would convince me otherwise."
