Why am I posting this? I must be a complete idiot but...what the hell! Did OJ kill his wife and her friend? Everybody has an opinion but the jury found him not guilty, Had I been on that jury I would have voted likewise...Mark Furhman (sp?) made it impossible to convict him. Is he an idiot? His actions since the crime scream "YES" But...if we incarcerated folks for being idiots.... This latest crime is hardly worth a long sentence... Our legal system don't state that it's ok to "get even" or balance the scales... He should have been sentenced solely on the merits of this conviction... Was he? Even if he is guilty of murder...he didn't get away with anything...he simply avoided man's law...I believe there is a higher justice. I also believe that it is better to let a guilty man go free than to punish an innocent man...isn't that a cornerstone of our system? I find no joy in this....I find the man pathetic, yes...distasteful, but I don't get the vulturistic joy of some...

If you hold the same litmus test for saying he was not guiltly of murder because of the results of the muder trial to the results of this trial, why can you not accept the decision?
The judge clearly stated before sentencing that the verdict and sentence was based solely on the results of this trial. He was guilty of like 10 different things. It's not my fault he screwed up. That's justice baby! Quote:

If the jury in that murder case proclaimed he was innocent, then that should have no influence on this case. But I believe it did influence the jury.... Yes he probably did it but...it sets a dangerous example by where people that are actually innocent will never be fully cleared of their name. |

The innocent verdict in the criminal murder trial was as racist as it gets.
He was found guilty of murder during the civil case if anyone remembers that. Goldman & Nichole's DNA were in OJ's car... it was an outrageous verdict. Now this dumbass is found guilty of KIDNAPPING, armed robbery basically, using force to kidnap.. etc. The sentence had everything to do with the current CONVICTIONS. If people feel it also helps vindicate that OJ is a MURDERER than AWESOME!

From everything I have read, all the sentencing has been within guidlines and has been 'normal' for this type of activity. I am guessing judges aren't stupid and this broad looked up past cases to see what they got, and made sure it was close, given the probablity that any harsher sentence an appeal for unfair trail or whatever they could cook up.... |

I agree he's a pathetic person, but I question the sentence based on the details of the event as reported....perhaps the judge had info that we do not, I don't know but it seems pretty steep....again, all I'm saying is that the sentence SHOULD reflect this case only...I can't see inside the judge's mind but I think the concern is valid enough to express. Of course I remember the results of the civil case, but in Civil Court, the standard of proof is a lot lower, he wasn't found "guilty" he was held "responsible"...we don't use civil decisions against a person's criminal record! How do you know the decision was racist? As I said, I would have voted not guilty and last time I checked, I was white....let me look again.........yep, still white. How can one vote to convict with a clear conscience when an admittedly racist cop handled key evidence, the same cop who admitted planting evidence in the past on black defendants because they were involved with a white woman, and bragged that he would do it again? When several other investigating officers shared his views, when key evidence was carried around in an officer's trunk instead of being turned into the evidence locker thus violating chain-of-custody regs, when the time line never quite fit, when Simpson's medical condition raised questions concerning his physical ability to commit such a violent act(s), and yes...when the damn glove didn't fit!!! (i know all about the science there but the glove didn't fit in front of the jury and the inept prosecutors had no answer). Simpson had the dream team and Darden and what's her name had no answers to much of the science...I mean hell, Simpson had F. Lee Bailey third chair!!! Bottom line...the case as presented fell well short of "beyond a reasonable doubt". I watched the circus every day, right or wrong, the jury had little choice...to call it racist is over-simplistic at best!

Come on Scavs...never said he did nothing wrong or shouldn't be punished...merely questioning the severity of the sentence...obviously it will be appealed and if within guidelines will be upheld. The issue to me is the glee that some express...

I am not the smartest person in the world, but I for sure know that I shouldn't be walking into a room with a gun to steal something. You understand that if he didn't bring the gun, he is probably not in jail now. Guns are NO JOKE, just ask Plex and the 3.5 years he will be serving |

I know you are kidding but you can be arrested for making your hand into the shape of a gun and pointing it at someone. I believe they call it an assertive action. Doesn't make it right but ****
