Great article over at ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/040611)  About how if the OJ trial was held now with the advent of Law and Order and CSI, OJ would be rotting in jail already

Oh god, don't remind me of this crap!  I worked for Court TV during the OJ trial.

As for the search...he's coming close.  As soon as he looks in a mirror, I think he'll find the killer.   ;)

I didn't know so many suspects might have been lurking at the 19th Hole

The thing that really hit home for me was his Suicide Note...that thing was amazing.  I didn't do it but I apologize to everyone

That f*cker makes me sick to my stomach.  Can't believe his murdering ass got away with it (for the most part).  Can't wait for the day some crazy loony bin (or one of his own kids) seeks some well justified retribution on him.   8)

On a side note, I shot some pool against Marcia Clark up in Santa Barbara several months after the trial ended.  Yeah, I'm cool like that, I know...   :P

Anyone know what happened to Cato?  He stretched his 5 minutes out for a while there, but it looks like he's gone the way of the dodo now.  Probably wound up in the porn biz, or sumthin' like that.   ;)

This may have been years ago, but I remember hearing Kato had his own radio show or something. Wasn't it in L.A? According to the IMDB, he certainly had more than a few gigs after the fact.

I've been reading an article or two about him lately, and I still can't believe that OJ is allowed to walk around free (and be in the public eye no less). It's not even so much that you can buy justice in this day and age....it's how horrible Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman's parents must feel to know that their children's killer is not only free and clear of the crimes....but is still allowed to go on TV and joke about the "good ol days" in interviews.

It's just wrong. I can't believe that 10 years later...he's still around. He lost the civil suit, he should have been stripped of every penny and banished from society.

When the murders first happened I was saying that OJ was innocent since I can't see how someone would kill the mother of they children like that.   I remember watching his low speed chase and hoping that he wouldn't kill himself and just turn himself in to prove he was not guilty.  When I heard the evidence at the Pre-trail I cahnged my mind and figured he was guilty as hell.  
When the verdicts where read I was in school and was shock at the reaction of my classmates (who were laughing at Ron's sister crying) and my teacher (who was happy that he got off).  I was disgusted that Johnny managed to turn the trial into a black and white race issue instead of what it was.  I sick that OJ is still around and able to make money since he lives in Florida where I think the victims famlies cannot touch his money he makes so he will not have to pay the millions which he owes them.

Are we all in agreement that OJ Simpson is officially the Worst Person of All Time?

O.J. Simpson to discuss killings - "If I Did It" (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061115/ap_on_en_tv/simpson_interview) (http://www.jedidefender.com/images/newsicons/icon50.gif)


So, he's going to tell us all how he would have killed Nicole Brown, the mother of his children, if he did it.  Yet another way to cash in on the act of murder.  I really, really, really, hope he rots in Hell.  (http://www.jedidefender.com/jsmentek/mad.gif)

I only hope that the families of the deceased get a little of the cash that he's going to rake in from doing this.

I seriously doubt they will.  I heard on the news they haven't seen a dime yet.  That ******* has enough money to play golf every day, but he can't throw them a few bucks.

Now he's going to make a book deal and a show about how he WOULD have killed their children. 
Ugh.

I don't blame the publisher or the TV producers, I blame OJ.  He should have enough respect and sympathy for the families (and his own wife) to not want to do something like this.

This just proves that he is crazy.  Crazy enough to have done it.

Isn't it interesting that there were only two gloves found? What happened to the third glove? Why isn't anyone talking about this? What did the LAPD do with it? I find this whole thing veeeeeeeeeery interesting.

Not really.  He never testified in his criminal trial.  As for the civil trial, that could be another thing.

I hate these kinds of stories where the suspect of the case goes and writes a story on how they would of done the crime.  My family had to deal with this same **** a few years ago when The Night Stalker help in making a book about the crimes he committed.  The only thing was that since he is looking for an appeal he ended up saying how "this is how I would of committed these crimes, had I been the guy".  OJ should just come clean and confess for real , since he won't face any charges (double jepoardy and statuory of limitions for prejury)  unless he plans on killing another family member or ex in the future.

No he couldn't for the criminal case. Never followed the civil case, but I was taking a grade 12 law class when the trial was going on so it got discussed alot. The only forms of testimony OJ gave (like the trying on the glove) were not done on the stand so he was not under oath. Since he wasn't under oath, he could lie all he wanted and nobody could do sweet eff all about it legally.

O.J. Simpson book, TV special canceled

NEW YORK - After a firestorm of criticism, News. Corp. said Monday that it has canceled the O.J. Simpson book and television special "If I Did It."

"I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project," said Rupert Murdoch, News Corp. chairman. "We are sorry for any pain that his has caused the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson."

A dozen Fox affiliates had already said they would not air the two-part sweeps month special, planned for next week before publication of the book. It was being published by ReganBooks, a HarperCollins imprint owned, like the Fox network, by News Corp.

In the projects, Simpson speaks in hypothetical terms about how he would have committed the 1994 slayings of his ex-wife Nicole and her friend Goldman.

The industry trade publication Broadcasting & Cable editorialized against the show Monday, saying "Fox should cancel this evil sweeps stunt."

One of the nation's largest superstore chains, Borders Group Inc., said last week it would donate any profits on the book to charity.

Actually the problem is he's going to be just as big if not a bigger celebrity in prison. All sorts of people will clamor to be his friend.

He'll get special treatment by prison officials and prisoners alike and not in that twisted way you are all thinking of..

It won't be a complete cake walk for Simpson, but it's not going to be the hard life for him either.

I'm glad he's going to prison. Not for the vindication of the murders that I do believe he committed, but for the very real crime of kidnapping by gunpoint.

It is sweet irony that on the 13th anniversy of his aquittal he's now found guilty of another crime. An unlucky number indeed.

Post by: Rob on December 6, 2008, 12:12 PM
Sorry guys but unless the sentencing guidelines for this crime are usually enforced to this degree, this isn't justice served, it's an abomination of the justice system.  You can't retroactively punish someone for a crime that they were acquitted of, even though we all knew he did it - and it's pretty clear that this is what happened here.

I loathe the guy as much as any of you, and I'm as convinced that he was guilty back in the 90's just like all of you, but adding extra years to this sentence out of some long standing desire for justice isn't justice.

Of course, I doubt anyone can prove that's what happened, and in the end he's getting what he deserved back then - but that still isn't how it's supposed to work.
Title: Re: 10 Years of Searching For the Real Killers
Post by: Matt_Fury on December 6, 2008, 06:31 PM
I think it's fair, and not punishment for getting away with a double homicide 13 years ago (allegedly).

He's serving 9 a minimum of 9 years in prison, when what he was convicted of could've been a life sentence under the law.  He might die in prison with the sentence he has, but I won't lose any sleep over it.

He is in jail where he belongs. Justice has been served. It will be close to a decade before we hear his name on the news again for when he is released, or if he is released. If he dies in jail (which I hope he does) the Brown family and Goldman family can be at peace knowing that a sadistic SOB like him is rotting in hell.
