O.J. Simpson Found Guilty in His Trial

Well, the "infamous murderer" O.J. Simpson was found guilty on ALL twelve
(12) charges in his trial for the fiasco in Las Vegas!! They said he could spend the rest of his life in prison! I say, "It's about time!"

It is that attitude that will be the basis for his appeal. I am not old enough to really remember the details of his wifes death, but from the news article I read , it seems as though a lot of people share your feelings about Mr. Simpson.

I fully agree with you John. I believe he killed his wife the first time and got out of it because who he is and has money to throw around. its about time he did some time over something.

I believe he is almost broke and lives off his name and friends with money. He has been failing in reputation and social standing for several years but has never believed he was not above the laws that affect the rest of us!

He's about to fall alot farther. Some people need to learn the hard way!

I graduated from my UAV tech school on OCT 10th 1995. They stopped our graduation to play the step by step reading of his aquital.....He should have been hung, shot, burned and buried a long time ago. He made it this far because of his money....and his "reputation". If it were me....I would have already served 13 years and filed a hundred failed appeals.

Hope he gets what he gave....

They can't touch his retirement pension he's getting. But he only gets $40,000.

So I guess it's true. Carma is alive and well, and God is watching.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Ill be even more happy when I see the door close permantely on his jail cell. I hope this helps Nicole and Ronald to rest more in peace. I know I do.

His verdict came on the anniversary of his acquittal I believe. Justice is finally served for the Goldman/Brown families.

Patriot:

You are right on the verdict being on the "anniversary of his aquittal." It was thirteen (13) years to the day according to the media! How weird is that??

This morning on the news they were interviewing the jurors that found him guilty and one of the female jurors brought up a good point about the defense intentions to "appeal" because there were no blacks on that jury. She said there were five-hundred jurors in the original "pool" of respective jurors and the defense had the choice to dismiss ANY of the ones they picked during the jury selection. BUT, THEY DIDN'T!! Now that O.J. has been found guilty and is going to prison they want to make this into a "racial" thing even though is was THEM that had the choice on who was picked abd sat on the jury! WOW!!

Along with the racial thing, the appeal is being submitted because his lawyer thinks the jury convicted him because of the past decision.
What gets me is the fact that he is being kept in isolation. WHY?
Are they afraid something would happen to him if he was in the general population?

Did not follow the trial closely but....
Each side only gets so many 'exclusions'
-Was the trial in Las Vegas?
-How many in the pool were Black?

None of this should make a difference but will it?

This tread has proven his attorney's theory.
