The OJ is Dead

Now he will get a fair trial.

Damn. Y’all are a tough crowd.

(No tears shed here, either)

We need a white bronco hearse fast.


If I had to find something good to say I’d talk about how much I loved naked gun.

Interesting bits:
Here are 12 facts Toobin uncovered about the jury:

1. Of the 24 jurors and alternates, 15 were African-American, six were white, and three were Hispanic — “in a county,” Toobin notes, “that is just 11 percent black.” This partly reflected the defense’s attempt to seat a largely African-American jury, because of research that revealed very early on that black and white people perceived the case much differently.

2. Over the trial, 10 jurors were replaced by alternates — but no alternates were ever removed.


3. All 12 of the jurors who ultimately decided the case were Democrats.

4. Two of them graduated college.

5. None read a newspaper regularly.

6. Nine rented homes; three owned.

7. Two had supervisory managerial duties at work.


8. Eight watched TV tabloid shows like “Hard Copy.” (Defense research found that people who liked tabloids were more likely to think Simpson was innocent.)

9. Five said they or a family member had “endured a negative experience with law enforcement.”

10. Five thought it was acceptable to use force on a family member.

11. “Nine — three quarters of the jury — thought O.J. Simpson was less likely to have murdered his wife because he had excelled at football,” Toobin wrote.

12. The prosecutors didn’t exercise all of the peremptory challenges available to them to strike potential panelists.

No death bed confession?

90% of the Jurors knew he was guilty, but let him off for revenge, for the Rodney King beating.

[Sooner or later]

He got off due to incompetent prosecution.

No big loss with his death.

Should have been by injection years ago.

Wow, what a "thread."

One of my old middle and high school friends was a key witness in OJ's murder trial.

I suspect he is uncomfortable about this news.

Hopefully it does not create more than a few days of "disturbance" for him.

Don't know the guy other than from the Naked Gun movies. I wasn't in the US when all this went down. I didn't even get the reference to a white Ford Bronco until years later.

My condolences. Whatever he did or didn't do, it's over.

[sc_rufctr]

I'm not sure what to say except we'll never know for sure.

Let the dead rest.

[Bill Douglas]

He was probably a very lovely guy. Just misunderstood that's all. LOL

I'm sure that's what Nicole is thinking.

That guy must be very relieved today, OJ can never find him now!

That's going around on the 'Net, that his procession should be a white Bronco followed by a bunch of police cars.

Well the Goldman family now be able to collect some of the money owed them from the trial?
