Where Are They Now? The O.J. Simpson trial lawyers and Judge Lance Ito [View all]

This is about a lot of people in the trial, but the only one that really interests me is Judge Ito.

<snip>
But not everyone sought fame and fortune following the trial. Judge Lance Ito, the Superior Court judge who presided over the Simpson trial, is still slogging away in the Los Angeles court system. He tells us his life is pretty much the same as it was 18 years ago.

“I’m still ensconced on the 9th floor of the Downtown LA Criminal Courts Building, trying one long cause/complex criminal matter after another. It’s probably [been] 150-plus jury trials since OJ," Ito told Fox411.com. "I’m married to the same woman [a now retired chief of police], live in the same neighborhood, drive the same car, but looking forward to retirement in the not too distant future."
