Well...What other way are we supposed to remember Johnnie Cochran? The only reason any of us know his name is because of the OJ case, so of course that's how he will be remembered by the general public.

I'll also remember him for the classic South Park episode that he was featured in which he ushered in the "Chewbacca" defense.




"Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed jury, Puff Daddy's accusers would certainly want you to believe my client was carrying a stolen gun on December 27th, and they make a good case. Hell, I almost felt pity myself. But Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk who carried a gun and ran from the mob. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it. That does not make sense. Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor with a bunch of two-foot-tall Ewoks. That does not make sense.

But more important, you have to ask yourself what does this have to do with this case. Nothing. Ladies and Gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case. It does not make sense. Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company producer and entertainer and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca. Does that make sense? Ladies and Gentlemen I am not making any sense. None of this makes sense.

And so you have to remember when you're in that jury room deliberating and conjugating the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No. Ladies and Gentlemen of this supposed jury it does not make sense. If Chewbacca lives on Endor you must acquit.

I know he seems guilty. But ladies and gentlemen this is Chewbacca. Now think about that for one minute. That does not make sense. Why am I talking about Chewbacca when a man's life is on the line? Why? I'll tell you why. I don't know. It doesn't make sense. If Chewbacca does not make sense you must acquit. Here look at the monkey , look at the silly monkey.

The defense rests."

Ha! Classic!

He was a good lawyer, I dont think any other lawyer couldve gotten OJ off.

RIP

He was a kind and gentle soul who risked his own reputation to save a man who was framed in a horrendous murder case.

LoL, I was listening to the radio talk show, and the people were like,

"I will only remember him for his infamous phrase, 'ladies and gentlemen, if the glove don't fit, you must acquit.'"

Re: How will you remember Johnnie Cochran?

RIP
