OJ finally gets what was coming to him

I have to say, I believe OJ was guilty of the murders and it pissed me off that he was running free. It's good to see he wasn't able to get out of this one. I hope his sentencing keeps him in prison for a long time.

Let me go on record as believing that OJ did not kill his wife and her boyfriend, at least, not singlehanded as the prosecution contended.

It won't matter. If you tortured him for 30 years it wouldn't bring those people back to life. There IS no justice.

It kind of bothers me the way everybody sees this prosecution as a surrogate for the murder charges. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he appealed this conviction (and won) on the basis that it's being treated as a way to "get him" since he was acquitted before.

He completely convicted himself with that tape.

I agree. It doesn't matter if he's had 92 other acquittals...it's not the "revenge" system...it's the "Justice" system.

Does anyone doubt OJ was the ringleader of the robbery and approved the use of guns?

I agree, that investigation was poorly done. If they did they're jobs right, they could have not only found him guilty, but got him and those other parties on conspiracy charges, as well.

Nope. But the constant tying of his two cases together taints this new outcome.

If there's one thing that people of all political persuasions can agree on these days, its O.J.

O.J. was found guilty for the previous case against him, not this one. That's what it was and now people can feel "high & mighty" about him being put in jail now for previous crimes that he was acquitted for. I know everyone can agree that we all think he actually did do it. But a jury found him not guilty, and this jury used the previous case against him to find him guilty. It is what it is though.

Which would be a baseless, unsupportable, and all around frivolous law suit.

He broke the law, he was proven beyond a reasonable doubt to have been the perpetrator, he was sentenced according to the sentencing guidelines for the crimes he committed --which wholly don't match those of the alleged murder charges.

There's no way he would win. Any rational judge would throw out the lawsuit just as fast as it had come into his chamber.

If evidence could be found to support the case that he was found guilty as a surrogate for another crime it can be argued that the conviction is unjust.
