Finally OJ can rest easy knowing that his wife's killer is dead

Someone who had been stuck laboring on that debacle of a case told me she felt so utterly wrenched out from the experience, it took giving birth at age 45 to "restore her faith in humanity." (her words)

He wasn't "guilty", he was found NOT guilty.

If you want to vent your spleens and do your virtue signaling about the injustice of it all, blame the morons they put on the jury and the system that allowed such people to even be eligible for jury service.

Some other facts about the final jury: (1) None regularly read a newspaper, but eight regularly watch tabloid TV shows, (2) five thought it was sometimes appropriate to use force on a family member, (3) all were Democrats, (4) five reported that they or another family member had had a negative experience with the police, (5) nine thought that Simpson was less likely to be a murderer because he was a professional athlete.

The racial composition of the initial jury pool differed considerably from the racial composition of the final jury. The pool was 40% white, 28% black, 17% Hispanic, and 15% Asian.

The late, great Norm Macdonald covered the OJ story quite well.

Not being from the USA I had only ever seen OJ in Naked Gun movies and had no idea he was a star beyond that until the highly publicized car chase and subsequent trial

I guess I was ten
