O.J. Simpson's best defense may be coming 22 years after the death of Nicole Brown Simpson.

The neuropathologist who discovered the brain disease that is rocking the NFL believes Simpson suffers from it.

Bennet Omalu, the forensic pathologist who first identified chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), said he is beyond confident Simpson suffers from the disease that is caused by repeated brain trauma.

Well now, if this CTE gets him out of the joint, maybe OJ can FINALLY find Nicole's killer. </sarc>

Maybe that’s why he can’t remember murdering his wife.

A doctor who makes a diagnosis publicly without examining any medical records?

He's eroding his credibility.

He willingly engaged in illegal activities including a double murder.

Brain trauma does not turn a person into a calculating psychopath. Personal choice does that.

But what crime does this get him off the hook for?

He didn't kill Nichole, as was determined at his trial.

Perhaps his CTE has something to do with the slow-speed chase, but he wasn't prosecuted for that, was he?

The autopsy doc on Reelz network said there was a fourth blood type at the scene and it was speculated that it belonged to OJ’s son.

So, give him the death penalty he deserves and let us know when the autopsy says.

CTE? What crap. Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman are still dead and OJ Simpson got away with murder. What does he want now? To get out of jail for his subsequent crimes? He can rot behind bars.

That new OJ movie bringing everyone out of the woodwork.

Faye Resnick and bitter enemy -ex wife of Marcus Allen have been cast on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. And it isn’t pretty.

I hear you but this article is just another example of what's happened in our society over the last 30 or so years:

"He's a victim of society", it wasn't his fault, blah, blah, blah..."

Yes.

“Beyond confident”.

That sounds like settled science.

No doubt it’s quite possible. It just adds more drama to the story.

Not only that, but Resnick’s good friend Kyle Richards - Aunt of Paris and Nicky Hilton - whose husband is so locked in a feud with Rick and Kathy Hilton that he wasn’t invited to Nicky’s wedding...is now going to show up on Arnold’s Celebrity Apprentice.

I can’t wait to see if she tries to get money from her sister during one of the donation events.

Bad blood all around. Round and round the circus goes.

Apparently Resnick is some kind of designer and has done stuff for Nickey and Paris Hilton.

I always wonder what the Rothschilds think of their mess.

I think Nikki is the sane one. Kyle is busy stirring the pot on RHOBH. There is no end to her attention getting.

Age and drugs don’t heap the brains, such as they are, of these guys either.

Didn’t read the article. Did OJ die last summer or did I dream that?
