Not taking the time. I think Jason was staying there so he had access. Remember Jason was preparing a dinner that night only to be canceled by Nicole. Did he like Nicole? He may felt rejected he went into a rage and along perhaps he did not take his medication.
Jason was there at the house in the afternoon so he took his dad’s shoes & gloves. This murder was not planned but out of moment of rage passion.
Why would he take his father’s shoes?
I’m sure he had a pair of his own.
OJ had a history of beating his wife. Jason didn’t
A cancelled dinner is a weak reason to send an ex-stepson into a murderous rage. I doubt you would find similar examples of this happening in police logs.
On the other hand an ex-husband, seething because he wife didn’t allow him to join the family at his daughter’s recital dinner, and later that evening seeing his ex- wife with a young man is going into a murderous rage every day of the week.
