Two of the biggest shows of the past three months have been Netflix’s “Making a Murderer” and FX’s “American Crime Story: The People VS O.J. Simpson.” And now, actor Martin Sheen is working on a new project that blends the two … it’s a miniseries that will air on the Investigation Discovery network called “Hard Evidence: O.J. is Innocent.” Sheen is narrating it, and he’s also a producer. He’s working with William Dear, a private investigator from Texas who put out a book in 2012 called “O.J.Is Innocent and I Can Prove It.” Obviously, they both believe he didn’t do it. Sheen says he hopes the series will help answer three questions: What if there were enough evidence that proved O.J. didn’t murder Nicole or Ron Goldman? What if the real killer were still at large? What if a grand jury convened to reconsider the case based on new evidence?
The show is expected to air sometime early next year. Of course, O.J. was acquitted in the criminal case, but he was found liable in a civil suit two years later, and pretty much everyone thinks he did it.
