California Bars Ex-LAPD Detective Mark Fuhrman from Policing
Fuhrman, convicted of perjury in the O.J. Simpson trial, decertified under new police reform law.
- Mark Fuhrman, a key figure in the O.J. Simpson trial, is now ineligible for law enforcement in California.
- The decertification stems from a 2021 law targeting officers with criminal records and bias.
- Fuhrman was convicted of perjury for lying about using racial slurs during the Simpson trial.
- The law was enacted following the 2020 police killing of George Floyd and took effect in 2023.
- Fuhrman, who retired in 1995, has since become a commentator and author.
