Why O.J.'s Saga Lives and Trayvon's Died

“Alone in a hotel room with Fred, I begged him to tell me the full truth," Sinclair wrote at the time to his own attorney. “He then told me that the men were guilty, and he told me in every detail how he had framed a set of alibis for them." Even in 1927, chroniclers understood the peril of flouting progressive orthodoxy. "My wife is absolutely certain that if I tell what I believe,” Sinclair confided to a friend in 1927, “I will be called a traitor to the movement and may not live to finish the book." Cravenly, he finished the book as originally projected. The myth of the accused’s innocence and America’s guilt lives on to this day.
