From Darden's final argument, rebuttal, last day of the trial:
But what they want you to do and what they have done in this case is they have interjected this racism and now they want you to become impassioned, to be upset, and then they want you to make quantum leaps in logic and in judgment. They want to you say Fuhrman is a racist, he planted the glove. You can't get from point a to point B if you just sit down and use your common sense. If you are logical, if you are reasonable, you can't do that. It is true that Fuhrman is a racist. And it is also true that he killed these two people, and we proved that he killed the two people.
MR. COCHRAN: Your Honor, I object to the form.
MR. DARDEN: We proved that Fuhrman is a racist.
THE COURT: Overruled. Overruled.
