OJ... Did he or didn't he?

[blinc]

Well, I would estimate that I watched about 65 to 70% of the trial and unless I missed something major, I already have my opinion on the matter, what's yours?

[Karenluvs6]

I think it is unbelievable!!
I believe he did it...no doubt in my mind at all....but don't anyone take offense to that....it is just my opinion and I am certainly no private investigator....but I think they showed me all I needed to see, to believe that he is guilty as sin.
and he had the nerve to complain and try to sue someone for making a mini series about it.

[jamesglewisf]

Is this a made-for-TV movie right now or something? What made you think of OJ?

[Karenluvs6]

yes, it was made for TV....I believe it was on about two weeks ago. He went to mat on that one, because he didn't want the story told.

[blinc]

Yep, what Karen said. I watched a good part of the trial, then when the movie came out, I was going to post and kept forgetting. :)

[Karenluvs6]

ya know, I can even begin to fathom, how that man lives with himself.....he has to wake up everyday, and go to sleep everynight....knowing what he did, and got away with it.
I wonder if it bothers him at all. I mean, it has to! How could it not?
I mean, think about how it feels when you say something that hurts someone's feelings...right?....you feel like dirt...like a complete horse's behind, right?......so how can someone live with knowing they hurt someone, physically, so badly!?!

[TWTCommish]

He flat-out did. He sure seems like a nice guy, but how on earth do you get past the DNA evidence? Apparently only 1 out of what, 100,000+ people would match that? And he just happens to have the blood there, and know them? C'mon.

Oh, and that glove business was a bunch of bull - what do you mean it doesn't fit? So it's a tight glove - you can't kill someone wearing a tight glove? Unbelievable.

Some things to keep in mind -

The blood evidence that the LAPD supposedly planted was discovered at about 8:00 in the morning.

The blood samples that the defence team claimed were used to frame him were collected from OJ at roughly 2:30pm that afternoon.

OJ had a history of violence toward Nicole. To believe that the LAPD framed OJ, you need to believe that when he was arrested for beating her, they handled him with kid gloves. But when she was murdered, they spontaneously formed a conspiracy consisting of virtually everyone in contact with the case without any discussion or collaboration, at the risk of their careers, against a man they (mostly) had never met, who was a popular TV star and former football jock, and framed him without ever spending a single instant looking for the real murderer.

This completely innocent man attempted to escape the country with a passport and disguise, knowing perfectly well that he was innocent.

You also have to believe that leather gloves never shrink, and that the thirty photographs taken by a professional photographer showing OJ wearing shoes that he said he never owned, were faked.

[Karenluvs6]

yes, it's laughable!

Nah! He couldn't have done it....not at all.

[PaulGoodman]

I think he probably did it but the LAPD tampered with evidence which basically gave OJ the get out of jail free card.

[kezzer]

IMO. The whole thing was such a crock. And he's out scott free! I especially like how he was not guilty of the murder, but he was found guilty at the civil trial! What a messed up country this is!

[Karenluvs6]

yeah, imagine that.
but he has to pay the families for a wrongful death suit!!!
This country is really messed up!

[blinc]

I saw an interview with an older gentleman, right after the trial. I do believe he was a juror. He said something that just filled me with horror. I can't quote it word for word, but basically he said, for years the white man has been putting black men in jails and prisons. Then something about seeing how the white people liked it.

I can't tell you how horrified I was at that. After seeing the atrocious way these two people were murdered... how can anyone think it's ok to get back at a race of people you hold a grudge against, by finding someone innocent of murder?

The whole trial, it did so very much damage to the race relations in the U.S. People were so divided... the whole mess, it just makes me sick at heart. Both for our judicial system and the fact that it became an issue of race, instead of looking at the two young lives that were brutally taken. I can't imagine being a parent and having to go through a trial like that one. They must have been filled with such anger, to see Johnny Cochran play the race card. It took away a lot of faith I had in justice being color blind.

[Dude111]

He either did it or KNOWS WHO DID!!!!!

Either way he is guilty as anything!

[FoC]

Well, I would estimate that I watched about 65 to 70% of the trial and unless I missed something major, I already have my opinion on the matter, what's yours?
I think he did it.
Im not into conspiracy theories, but I personally believe he got off because of the LA riots.
Way too soon after those riots. I think it all would have happened again, or at least thats what I believe they were worried about if OJ had been convicted.

[Dude111]

No one can be 100% sure though....

Only 2 people know for sure

1) GOD

2) OJ himself

[worldwoman1]

I think he did it also. Look at all the evidence they had against him. Plus they should have gotten him for evading the police for that long a time that they followed behind him.

[tface]

But you know what? With L.A. riding on the tail end of the Rodney King riots, the smartest thing was to find him not guilty. A lot of lives would have been lost if the verdicts were turned.

[SmartyPants]

It sure looks like he did it to me.

[tface]

I agree with Dude.... No one knows but God and OJ
