ORIGINAL: DaddySatyr I have always felt that OJ was involved in his ex-wife's murder in some way, but I also felt the prosecution failed to make a good case and the defense was brilliant at dissecting it. Mistakes were absolutely made, on both sides. Three of the most egregious: By the prosecution: Why was VanAtter walking around the crime scene with vials of OJ's blood for hours? That definitely allows for reasonable doubt. I'd have voted "Not guilty", based upon that alone. By the defense: failing to have an answer for why the gloves were found (supposedly dropped out of a back pocket) in two places so far apart. For the judge: How the hell is Ron Shipp (? spelling?), testifying about a dream OJ told him about admissible. It's like hear-say³. To my mind, this was a welcome mat for the defense to argue "Reversible Error" on appeal. All of that said, at OJ's parole hearing, the victim testified that OJ was not armed. I'm not saying he shouldn't have been convicted. I'm saying plea bargains have been made with far better prosecution cases against defendants. Michael For the robbery case he was locked up for, he was offered a plea bargain of 2 years jail time, he thought he could negotiate that down and had his lawyer go back with a counter-offer. The prosecution decided to go to trial.. he was so stupid and arrogant, he spent 7 extra years in jail as a result (not that I think he has learned anything at all- he tried to appeal saying his lawyer never told him about the plea offer).. The way the US justice system works, if you go shopping with some friends but they want to go the bank first, so you drive them there and wait in the car, unknown to you, inside they commit bank robbery, guess what- you are locked up along with them.. If you commit a crime and someone dies, even if you arent armed you are on trial for murder along with everyone else involved.. so it doesnt matter if he was armed himself or not (plus he told his friends to make sure no one left until he got his stuff).. As far as who killed Nicole & Goldman, she was nearly totally decapitated, the killer had a lot of hate for her.. I believe OJ killed her in a fit of rage and he did it alone... I think all of any decent friends he had finally came to that same conclusion which is why pretty much the only friends he has now are seedy types (like the ones that did the robbery job with him)..
