This is a side note. Everyone thinks that Goodman and Brown arrived at her place together. Goodman had actually drawn the short straw and was only returning glasses to her that she had left at the restraunt he worked at. Wrong place, wrong time, incredibly unfortunate. I think that he could have killed both as a result of the lapse in time. OJ stabs her, Goldman walks in on it, sees the dead body, gets suprised and stabbed as well.

 

Again, the LAPD blew this case. If you want to be mad at anyone, be mad at those loose cannons. OJ Simpson was not guilty not b/c he didn't do it. He was not guilty b/c the LAPD was sloppy w/ evidence in their possession and a loose cannon detective who couldn't wait for proper procedure.

I also believe that it doesn't matter what the evidence says. OJ was guilty before the trial started in the eyes of many.

Well, yeah. Had the Bronco chase not happened it would have been really interesting to see. OJ was liked by the white community prior to the murder. He lost a lot of people when he didn't turn himself in right away.

Maybe, maybe not, I don't know about that. But personally, as for me I was an OJ fan and when news first broke, my initial reaction was that there was no way OJ did it, though I understood why he had to be looked at initially as a suspect. I just figured he would be looked at and cleared and things would move on. As evidence was released and the longer things drug along, the more my initial feelings changed. I would garner a bet that a LOT of people started out the same way I did, but I have no way to prove it.

I think you are discounting how popular the Juice was. He cultivated the climate to make anyone question his innocence by becoming a fugitive of the law and threatening to kill himself.

He was guilty before the trial and people did not reach that conclusion unreasonably. Being found legally not guilty is not the same as being innocent of a heinous crime. OJ deserved the death penalty.

 

Fleeing the police and threatening suicide were not the actions most innocent men would have taken.

This trial only exposed the flaws in the greatest system of justice in the world. What can you do? Once pronounced innocent though the system went after him. Didn't think that was fair.

I was going to college at UK at the time. Nobody there knew OJ as the RB he was OJ the actor. A majority of people I talked to everyday had him guilty before the trial.

Innocent before proven guilty? He was never proven guilty obviously.

He is in jail now for stealing back his own memorabilia that someone ripped off from him. I agree with you 100%.

That's the case with most high profile trials. I assume you still think George Zimmerman was guilty.

The people who believed OJ was guilty based on his behavior before the trial were correct. Courts cannot find people innocent, they find them not guilty based on basis of reasonable doubt. Courts make mistakes, and reasonable people believe that OJ slaughtered two people in cold blood after carefully planning their murder.

The same holds true for George Zimmerman. Since his acquittal it's deemed news worthy if he breaks wind loudly in a public place.

Yep. I think he is racist also. Got away with murder. At least we know he was at the murder scene.

Good point. Reasonable people believe George Zimmerman was a racist who killed an unarmed black kid while acting as an over zealous and racist neighborhood watch captain.
