Police Slowly Escort White Hearse Containing O.J. Simpson
LOS ANGELES, CA — Mourners and curious onlookers alike gathered along the 405 freeway in Southern California to bear witness as Los Angeles Police vehicles slowly escorted a white For Bronco hearse containing O.J. Simpson.
The procession, which traveled at a low speed with law enforcement working to prohibit any other vehicles from getting on the freeway, allowed onlookers to have one final chance to see Simpson being followed by police officers.
"One last time, for old time's sake," said one witness who watched the white Bronco roll by followed by dozens of police cruisers. "He died as he lived. It's poetic when you think about it. And you have to feel for the police, too. They never really did catch him, did they? And yet here they are, still pursuing him. Really makes you think."
An LAPD spokesman described the mood of the procession. "We felt it was important," said Officer Reginald Johnson. "We began our pursuit of the perp — sorry, we began escorting the procession for the deceased as it left the Brentwood area and continued to follow until it reached its destination. We advised officers to keep a close eye on the hearse to make sure it wasn't trying to flee. You just never know."
At publishing time, crowds along the road were cheering as O.J. stayed ahead of the police one last time. "He did it again!" said onlooker Shawn Grimes. "I mean, he didn't ‘do it.' That's not what I meant. Sorry, that was a poor choice of words."
OMG, that is some recollection you have there! A blast from the past!
Tacky!
Yuppers...
He said He’d find the killer.....
In the mirror.
Good one, Bee. 😏
Did he die?
There’s a white Blazer here in Reno with the license plate “NOT OJ”.
That’s funny.
The owner apparently works at the Sheriff’s office.
That’s hilarious!
Too soon? NAH!
Bronco.
They should escort it over to the river bank and dump that garbage in.
I almost got stung, but I wish it were true..
The state did not wish to convict him. They feared rioting.
The fix was in when they agreed to transfer the trial from Brentwood (an upper middle class white neighborhood) to LA. No matter what the prosecution did, black jurors would never convict OJ.
OJ can now rest knowing his wife’s killer is dead.
They would probably let him out on no bail now
What would she say if the people all wrote in that they will not as Jurists find anyone guilty of murder if they killed her?
Would she find jury nullification so funny as AG nullification?
I guess it’s “No more running through airports” for OJ.
Pre-TSA airports were great.
Now? Not so much.
It’s pushing a decade since I’ve flown.
Thank you for posting this. Now that murderous bastard will see just how hot those gloves really are. Rot in hell O-J.
Yep. I totally understand it. He ruined his life, anyway. Also a travesty to take all that God-Given talent and squander it.
People are so stupid. And sometimes just plain EVIL.
