He retired to Idaho and he travels around helping other police departments resolve dead cases. He has solved many cases since retiring. No matter what you believe, Furhman is an excellent detective with a proven track record.



Mark Furhman was crucified by the media because he took on O.J. Simpson. He was never accuses of perjury or presenting false evidence by the court. He was accused of this by the media.



The book he was working on where the racist remarks were found, were put there by the publisher's ghost writer to make the story more interesting.



This case was divide by racial boundaries but they were not put there by Mark Furhman.



Mark Furhman tries to distance his self from the OJ Trail. That trial would have turn out differently if Judge Ito controlled the court, Christopher Darden were the lead prosecutor instead of Marcia Clark.



She blew the case but not presenting all the evidence. The LA Police blew the case by not securing the crime scene allow doubt to be cast on the DNA evidence.



In short to protect a Hollywood murderer, Many good people were thrown to the wolves.

No it is not true no evidence was planted on OJ. Everybody knows he is guilty, but the lawyers played misdirection and word games, and the jury was star struck, nothing more. There was more evidence in the OJ case than about 80% of all homicide convictions in the US.



Mark Furman lives in Idaho now. Last I heard he had written a couple of pretty popular true crime books (one was made into a pretty decent TV movie), and has a conservative radio talk show in the local market.

"is it true that the evidence found by him supposedly on OJ simpson was false evidence?"

-No.



OJ wasn't framed, he wasn't convicted, he GOT away with a double murder.





LOL, do you actually believe him to be innocent?! EVERYONE knows he is guilty, he just had better lawyers than most.

O J Simpson is a scumbag who deserves to be killed on sight. This is why Mark Furhman got away with planting false evidence.

Often crime pays and Fuhrman is proof.



He's cashed in big time as an author and speaker; he occasionally makes paid appearances on "news" and "information" shows on television.
