He got off based on the evidence. Plain and simple.

BTW, the theory about his son? .....might be right on.

I think "catching O.J. Simpson" meant still something in `94, otherwise no one would have watched this trial either.

Graycap23 said:

Dawg, you've presented this ONE THING and wanna claim "Victory" now? . Give it a rest, playa...THIS conspiracy theory ain't flyin' with me, and neither is that weak-ass "His son did it" theory. Facts, not fiction, playa. You KNOW how I roll..try rollin' with me.

Graycap23 said:

Yeah, you WISH all I had was his NOW $500 dolla kicks that you claim wasn't expensive.

Cinnie said:

Huh? Why did it mean something in '94?

Cinnie said:

Cin, what happened, dawg? I thought you wanted to know what was up on this case? From the looks of your posts, you ONLY wanna here ONE SIDE of it - the side in which YOU agree with.

Now, you never ansewered my Bruno Magli question...why? Because it THEN makes your view different on this? What's up, playa? Handle ya bid'nis!

MuthaFunka said:

I just wanted to know why there was any doubt at all. From the press coverage at the time there was only one verdict. That's why I needed to hear more from the other side.

JustErin said:

I don't know enough about American football to speculate in depth.

Cinnie said:

Wasn't the dude just doing shitty movies and Hertz commercials at that time?

JustErin said:

He was still some sort of football hero though.

I read that as "Heinz commercials" and almost nodded anyway. I don't remember this schitt! He was playing in the 70s, I'm an 80s baby.

Cinnie said:

Well, there was only ONE TRIAL so there could have ONLY been ONE VERDICT at that time.

I mean the verdict BEFORE the verdict

I've not read the book either, but I just perused some stuff from it online. Check this out...

* Jason didn't exhibit "just violent behavior," he dealt with a clinically diagnosed Intermittent Explosive Disorder, for which he was medicated. He was known to snap and go completely apesh*t on folk since he was a kid. Just two months before the murder, he'd checked himself into Cedar-Sinai Hospital because he thought he was going to "rage" soon, but after released he is said to have refused his mood stabilizing medication.

* He tried to commit suicide once by stabbing himself with scissors; another time by slashing his wrists with broken glass; and another time by ODing on his meds. He once almost broke a girlfriend's neck by throwing her into a bathtub. He once beat up another girlfriend at his own birthday party... and tried to strangle her later the same night. He once attacked yet another girlfriend with a big-ass knife and cut off her hair. And he once attacked a former employer with a big-ass knife, an offense for which he was, in fact, on probation when the murders were committed.

* Jason and Nicole were known to go on casual dinner and dancing dates, and some people in their circle reported suspicions Jason had developed (presumably unrequited) romantic feelings for her. Apparently the night of the murders, Nicole and family was supposed to go visit the restaurant that Jason worked at. They, of course, cancelled and ended up at another restaurant. When they cancelled, Jason supposedly left work pissed a bit early that night... a good 45 mins. prior to the murders. If, say, he went to confront Nicole and ran into her with Ron, maybe the !@#$ hit the fan?

* Jason and O.J. were often at odds. Jason once snapped and attacked a statue of his father with a baseball bat. If this is true, Jason's feelings for Nicole probably exacerbated the strife between the two and, if Jason committed the crimes, not only might he have done it with the initial intent of implicating O.J., but he would have had access to virtually anything in O.J.'s possession -- like clothes, shoes, gloves... even his Bronco, all of which he was known to use at will.

* Ron and Nicole were likely killed with a big-ass chef's knife. Well, chef Jason was known to own a set of his own big-ass chef's knives that he usually kept with him. (More on that later.)

* When asked his whereabouts at the time of the murders, Jason first said he worked late that night (but co-workers eventually conceded that he had left early), then he said he was with his girlfriend (but she has said he wasn't), then he said he went home after work to watch TV.

* Several international crime scene experts were consulted, and while they generally support the notion that while O.J. was at the crime scene sometime that night, they say forensic evidence suggests a younger, stronger, more able-bodied man committed the murders.

* Jason was never questioned by police, and while O.J.'s fingerprints were not found at the scene, Jason's prints were never tested against the unknown prints there. And Jason's DNA would possibly have matched some of the blood evidence that was acquired.

* A day after the murders, O.J. is said to have retained a high-powered criminal attorney for Jason (purpose unknown); and Jason's psychiatrist was discovered to have shredded Jason's records.

Put this all together, and it's no slam dunk, but it does make you wonder.

Oh... and about Jason's knives: A while after the murders, the book's author was able to purchase a box of Jason's belongings that Jason had put in storage but (stupidly) failed to pay fees for. Inside the box were, among other things, pictures of Jason in a skull cap similar to the one cops say the assailant may have been wearing, a diary with entries around the time of the murder referring to him as a "Jeckyl and Hyde," who was "living in the year of the knife," and... yep, one of those big-ass knives, which experts say could have been the murder weapon.

And to boot, did y'all know Jason was arrested for a hit and run, during the O.J. trial?

WOOOOO!

Cinnie said:

Yeah, Cinnie, I don't know if Jason did it, but I'd certainly have done exactly what he has done since the trial if all of that came out about me -- dis-a-friggin-pear!

...And William Dear has all but dared Jason to sue him!

Cinnie said:

Well that was the other highly plausible theory - Jason did it. Why did he have to be named Jason?

choo choo choo
haa haa haa


But seriously,the prosecution could have made a case against Jason but OJ made for a bigger headline and more sensationalism. I remember the rumors that Jason banged Nicole. This woman was no saint, remember OJ was married when she hooked up with him and she did use drugs therefore an adulterous affair with her stepson is not all unlikely. If he's crazy and jealous and thinks she's his then why wouldn't he kill her if he found her with Ron? Wow I can't believe we still talk about this shit all these years later!

DesireeNevermind said:

Exactly!

And, for the record, I'm not at all pinning this on Nicole. She wouldn't have deserved this if she were the Antichrist. And O.J., even if he is innocent of these murders, is still a capital jerk.

I just think for all the energy this case got -- and for all the social fallout it presented -- this rather plausible theory should have been looked at. The extravaganza since the murders hasn't at all been about seeking justice for Ron and Nicole so much as nailing an uppity O.J., whether he did it or not.

Lammastide said:

I can agree with that to balance out my other stance.

Lammastide said:

So terribly true. Jason's reaction when the verdict was read always struck me as odd. I mean he held his head down practically the whole time as if he were awaiting his OWN verdict.

And it's sad that so many people were pleased OJ got off because they thought it was a stick to the system. They didn't realize that his getting off just made things worse. There were guys getting thrown in jail for simply arguing with their women in public. The field was not leveled for blacks and whites accused of the same crimes either; still a foothill up against a mountain.

I always thought they wanted to pin it on OJ for his past spousal abuse.
