While covering the O.J. Simpson case for KCBS-TV in Los Angeles, Levin reported that prosecutor Marcia Clark had entered Simpson's residence before a search warrant had been executed. When Levin was proven wrong, he attempted to blame his mistake on a technician who "mis-timed" the video's clock during the editing process. He briefly represented discredited Simpson witness Mary Anne Gerchas. Levin has been an inactive member of the State Bar since 1 January 1996.
