o.j. simpson fears for his life

http://www.therundown.tv/...-his-life/

It’s only been a few weeks since O.J. Simpson was found guilty on twelve counts of armed robbery and he claims to be shaking in his boots…

“I’m a dead man!” the disgraced gridiron great declared when he phoned pals shortly after his conviction. Even as he sat in his dank Las Vegas jail cell just hours after jurors found him guilty of armed robbery and kidnapping, guards worried he would be marked for death. For his own safety, he was put in an isolation cell dubbed “the hole” by prisoners.

“He’s scared to death - so much so that he won’t eat, and he has been given medication for depression,” disclosed a source. Simpson has plummeted to such depths of despair, revealed an insider, “he was put on suicide watch. Someone is watching him nearly every minute in case he tries to strangle himself with whatever he can find in his cell.”

“O.J. has two major things working against him as he heads to prison - he killed two white people and he’s a celebrity,” a Nevada prison system insider told the Enquirer. “He’s a target for the Aryan Warriors, a very powerful and deadly prison gang whose members want to finally deliver O.J. fatal justice. They’re waiting for him to arrive - it’s going to be like tossing meat to the wolves. He’ll be dead within weeks.”

Surely the Aryan Warriors know he was aquitted of murder! He can explain it to them at least.

Why do I feel like he's really going to jail for murder? Supposedly these things are unrelated, but it feels like there's a sense that that the public is saying "we finally got him!"

Am I the only one who sees a problem with a neo-nazi, racist group targeting an African American prisoner....? Regardless of whether anyone thinks he did it or not, he was found not guilty...so IMHO he doesn't have to explain anything to anyone.....especially not to a bunch of racist criminals who were just as dumb as O.J. to end up in prison....

...just my twocents

that's what I'm saying. I personally believe he did it, but that doesn't matter. He was given a trial & found not guilty. He was found guilty of armed robbery, that's all.

Every so often I think, "what if he didn't do it?" (murder) His whole life has been ruined, is it fair? I don't know if he did it or not. I wasn't there.

Honestly, to this day, I'm still on the fence (as dumb as that may sound to some) as to whether he did it or not....but once he was found not guilty, I stopped wondering....and I agree that this feels like revenge justice...sort of like Capone (not comparing him to Capone)...."can't get him for murder, so we'll get him for tax evasion"...

nod definitely revenge.

As for me, I was shocked that he was not guilty, and didn't believe it, but realized over time that I can't ignore that 12 people aquitted him so quickly. Sure some of them had to have been idiots (law of averages) but all of them? It made me wonder, at least made me question the system, as I believe they did.

I worked at a TV station when O.J. was on trial the first time and watched ALOT of the coverage since it was kinda my job and it was also facinating. My impression was that that O.J. could have done it, but I would have voted not guilty too, because the LAPD fucked the case up badly. When the defense got done you just knew that much of the evidence was planted. Makes you wonder how often that kind of things happens everyday to people who can't afford billion dollar lawyers. If you you watched the entire trial and weren't biased you had to have reasonable doubt IMO.

Wow! As macabre as that seems, that would've been a great experience to have been around what was arguably the trial of the century...that said, I've been on jury duty and the cases I worked as foreman of the jury, it left a lot to be desired for the prosecutors....trying to connect dots where there were no connections....

This was always my thing with that murder case, If he did it why the hell did the Police feel the need to plant evidence, I asked this to everybody I knew who thought he did it and none could give an answer.

Well, I guess celebs can't always get away with everything. I think he was beign punished for the 2 murders we all KNOW he committed, more than anything else on this, though. But, I don't feel sorry for the guy.


Why do people who get away with the craziest shit end up breaking the law again? You'd think they'd be on their best behavior for catching such a break.

I see it this way. Those racists that are in there are just as violent and ignorant as OJ is. Don't put him in the general population with a lot of them because that wouldn't be a fair fight. However, lock him up in the same room with only one of them and let them fight to the death. No matter what the outcome is, at least one less asshole is around.

I don't see the connection....OJ may or may not have killed his wife (the violence angle I do connect because there is no question he physically abused her), but he (to my knowledge) has never espoused the murder or eradication of entire races of people because they're not white, like the neo-nazis...in the racists eyes, its not that he may have gotten away with killing his wife, its that he got away with killing his WHITE wife...and even in our enlightened times, the mere fact that he married her in the first place is reason enough for them to kill him....

...OJ probably is one of the biggest assholes of our time...but I think that it's plain wrong to just "let the Nazi's get ahold of him"...it just reeks of Jim Crow and racism...hell, if thats the case, why don't we just let them lynch him and get it over with...

No, he hasn't wanted to eliminate an entire race but he has no problem turning entire races even further apart than they already were simply so to get his ass off the hook from going to prison. Even if he actually isn't guilty of the murder (which I doubt), he deserves to be locked up for beating her all that time.

And as for racists, the real racists think she got what she deserved for being with a black man in the first place. They would love to get his ass simply because he's black, that's true, but they have no sympathy for her.

...OJ probably is one of the biggest assholes of our time...but I think that it's plain wrong to just "let the Nazi's get ahold of him"...it just reeks of Jim Crow and racism...hell, if thats the case, why don't we just let them lynch him and get it over with...


I made it perfectly clear that he should be put in a cell with only one of them. That way it would be a fair fight. You are acting as if OJ has no chance of winning against one of those bastards one on one. For all we know, OJ might be the winner of the battle. If the racist dies, well, that's a good thing also. I hate racists and I hate OJ just as much. Whatever the outcome of that cell match would be, it would be a win win situation. evillol

I think that you're oversimplifying this point....what did he specifically do to tear races further apart? The main thing that his case highlighted was the disparate treatment that minorities as a whole encounter while traversing the courts and legal system...the case also reinforced the fact that money can buy you out of a murder rap, regardless of color...granted, he most definitely should have gone to jail for abusing her...and I think that today, if anyone calls 911 for a domestic incident, one of the parties has to leave the home...and charges get pressed regardless of what the abused party wants....(wifey used to be a 911 operator, so thats where I got that one....nod)

And as for racists, the real racists think she got what she deserved for being with a black man in the first place. They would love to get his ass simply because he's black, that's true, but they have no sympathy for her.


This is true...but whether they feel sympathy for her or not, if racists were to get OJ alone, trust me when I tell you they'd invoke her name like they were talking about the virgin mary....because the fact that he allegedly killed her far outweighs the fact that she married "outside her race" in their eyes...

I made it perfectly clear that he should be put in a cell with only one of them. That way it would be a fair fight. You are acting as if OJ has no chance of winning against one of those bastards one on one. For all we know, OJ might be the winner of the battle. If the racist dies, well, that's a good thing also.

If OJ were to win this "one on one" battle, what makes you think that this thing won't be like the end scene of that Jet Li movie "The One"? Obviously this is all conjecture, but OJ would have to literally have eyes on every side of his head...he will literally fight every day of his sentence, and realistically the odds of him walking out of that jail are not good...

I don't feel sorry for him in the least....he got his ass thrown in the pokey thru his own stupid actions....but again, karma dictates that for every evil wished upon another, the evil is visited upon the wisher threefold...he'll get his ultimate punishment in whatever form based on whatever he believes in in due time....but its not for me to wish anything on him because in all honesty, nothing he's ever done, good or bad, has affected or altered my life in the least.....

That's life. That book 'What if i did it?' dunno if it was released or not but really, the idea alone was totally offensive. Dancing on Nicole's grave like that.

That whole trial should have been about murder and race should have never been an issue. True enough, the racist ass police turned it into a race issue by planting things, but after that was discovered and pointed out, the main focus should have been on the murder of this woman and not on race. It is definately possible that the police were racist and OJ was guilty. I can definately see them planting things for racist reasons in hopes of making sure he's found guilty for fear that he may get off (innocent or guilty) because of his money and fame. I can also see him actually being guilty, learning of what they have done, and using the fact that they are racist (which they are) to totally take eyes off of what he's done. Even knowing in the process that some people will actually think he's guilty but will want to see him get off because of the police department's racism.

I've seen the most liberal whites say he's guilty and the most conservative blacks say he's innocent. I've never seen such a huge division between blacks and whites as I have when that trial was going on. And I've also had black friends at the time (former friends now) tell me they think he's guilty and glad he got off. I take this much more personal than the average person because I have interracial marriages in my family and I would hate to see people cheer if something happened to one of my family because people felt it was payback for the sins that other white people did in the past....sins in which the victim took no part in. Back in the 1980s, my sister got beat up by her black boyfriend at the time. My mother took her to the police department and the white racist policemen told my mother that she shouldn't have been with a black man to begin with. Then, they did absolutely nothing about it. Yeah, those policemen were racist as hell but that still doesn't change the fact that her boyfriend actually did beat her up. As years go by, it appears to be better but that trial just opened up the fact that it's still the same.


If OJ were to win this "one on one" battle, what makes you think that this thing won't be like the end scene of that Jet Li movie "The One"? Obviously this is all conjecture, but OJ would have to literally have eyes on every side of his head...he will literally fight every day of his sentence, and realistically the odds of him walking out of that jail are not good...


I know. That's the point. He could possibly kill some racists, which would be a good thing, but he still would have to constantly watch his back also. That's what I want. I don't want him to ever have a moment of peace. I want the racists to get what's coming to them and I also want OJ to get what's coming to him. I don't want him to get away free just because he wins that particular battle. As I said before, it's a win win situation all the way around. evillol

Hey, I'm going easy on OJ because what I would want for those racist ass policemen that planted that evidence would be much more harsh. At least I'm giving OJ a one on one fight. I'd throw those racist policemen in a small cell with a bunch of angry black gangbangers and let them rip their racist asses to shreds from one end of that damn cell to the other. evillol
