Default The Felon Behind O.J.'s Bust - Meet Thomas Riccio: Arsonist, prison escapee, stolen goods

Peter- No offense but you are being naive, people with baggage get convicted all the time. I agree with you, it's not right, but it happens. Prosecutors find new and inventive ways of getting around statutes preventing testimony of prior crimes all the time and the legislators have made the exceptions to the rule excluding this testimony big enough to drive a mack truck through.
