Johnnie Cochran, who broke into another stratosphere of fame after helping O.J. Simpson get acquitted, died yesterday at age 67. He had been suffering from a brain tumor and died in his son's home in Los Angeles. While Cochran took pride in his career as a civil rights lawyer, the Simpson case, culminating with Cochran's uttering of "If the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit" truly made him a household name.
