You are right. Not only does leather shrink but the latex creates like heavy friction. You can't put on any glove over latex, especially leather. It really seemed like the prosecution wasn't interested in really fighting the case properly. The whole glove thing was a cheap stunt.

@Jim.Jim.32 I have put latex gloves on and they wrinkle up and stick to my skin. Leather is skin, it is cow hide. If you have skin rubbing on latex rubbing on skin, it is going to act as a slip mat. You won't be able to slide your hand into a glove with it. That is why they use latex rubber to make mats that keep rugs from slipping or as nonslip mats in the shower. It has adherent properties.

Shapiro knows he is guilty, but is so into being a great lawyer that he took the case anyway. Now he got moral justice because karma took his son and karma didn't let him get paid for all that work and notoriety from the OJ trial. He is going to pay one way or another for that. It is like the movie The Devil's Advocate where all the lawyer cared about was winning when he knew he was getting off child molesters and murderers. He just wanted to do his job and didn't think about the morality. Here is the thing. Leather shrinks when it is wet. Leather gets stiff and you can't get your hand back into it. The gloves must have shrunk, but somehow Marcia Clark wasn't thinking like this guy was. All she had to do was bring in a shrunken glove and a new glove from the same thin leather, and then show the jury how one fits and one doesn't. She did kind of throw the case. Shapiro knew every dirty legal trick in the book. He won the case but lost his good standing in the universe. I wonder if he will ever really repent. He is being honest but he wasn't right. Did he really think that psychopath OJ would do anything else but laugh with glee? His life wasn't worth more than Nicole's or Ron's just because he was famous for playing football. That was a black mark on the whole nation when he got away with that. Suddenly you couldn't say the N word and there was a huge racial divide as well, like blacks were now entitled to superior treatment.
