> The OJ trial was the first victory of the narrative over truth.

And Alan Dershowitz was part of that travesty, but now he complains about the monster he helped create.

Don’t forget Kardashian. He was seen carrying a garment bag, which probably carried bloody clothes, to his boat. He was then added to the defense team so they could claim client-attorney privilege. His offspring are now only famous because the mom shopped a sex tape (allegedly) and married Bruce / Caitlyn Jenner.

He was obviously guilty. I was flabbergasted when this story first came out as I lived in Buffalo during OJ’s reign as a super star running back and couldn’t imagine him capable of such a thing. I feel sorry for those killed and their parents.

It was the black women jury who let OJ go free. They hated that he went out with a white woman Nichole. The prosecution was also incompetent.

Orenthal J was not in prison but he was not a free man. He was his own prison on 2 legs.

We’ve forever lost the opportunity to call him on April 1st and report that we have caught the killers.

He was a cold blooded murderer who was not convicted, that’s what I think of him.

I always thought that one of the unsung heroes of that night was Nicole’s Akita dog, whose incessant barking led a neighbor to investigate and discover the bodies. Otherwise, Nicole’s two young children would have found the bodies the following morning.

Did he confess in late hour of his life?

Has not been reported, so probably not, although if he did toward the end his family won't publicize it.

The most damning evidence against him was the 911 call Nicole made sometime before her murder when she said in her call that OJ was trying to kill her.

The judge (Ito) was the biggest problem in that case.

He should never have let it become the circus that it was.

Dear Lord none of us know for certain what was in OJs heart but you do and your judgement will be perfect and swift. I pray for the SOUL of OJ and if he is in your grace then we’ll know you are truly God. Amen

OJ killed two people. And his trial killed the Rule of Law.

In Kansas City we thought it very telling that his close friend Marcus Allen almost completely withdrew from public life. He was sure OJ was guilty and was disgusted by it all.

Now he faces a higher judge than any on this earthly plain. I hope he like hot weather.
