OJ Simpson remarks on Alex Murdaugh trial: 'I don’t know why they think I’m an expert on it'

Murdaugh trial has gripped nation

O.J. Simpson gave his take on the ongoing Alex Murdaugh double-murder trial on Thursday as jurors in the case began their deliberations after weeks of testimony.

The jury will determine whether Murdaugh, 54, is sent to prison for possibly the rest of his life for allegedly gunning down his 22-year-old son, Paul, and his wife, Maggie, 52. Prosecutors have argued that he slaughtered Paul and Maggie on June 7, 2021, near the dog kennels on the family's hunting estate in Islandton, South Carolina, in a desperate act of self-preservation.

Dozens of witnesses have taken the stand over the last six weeks.

Simpson was among the armchair quarterbacks who weighed in with his thoughts on the trial. He rambled for more than three minutes in a Twitter video.

"A whole lot of people asking me about this Alex Murdaugh trial. I don’t know why they think I’m an expert on it. But I got to admit when he took the stand, a guy who’s [a] habitual liar, I did watch. When the trial first started, I watched him take the stand, and I thought it was probably a mistake because the guy is an admitted liar, and it’s hard for me to think he could be on the stand for five, six, seven, eight days without lying," Simpson said. "The question is: What did he lie about? But lying and stealing money is a little different than murder."

"I realized watching him testify what he was doing. He was just trying to relate to one or two of those jurors that he was a good ‘ol boy. He was one of them. I’m not sure he didn’t succeed in doing that. I am not really qualified to say if the guy did it or he didn’t

You got to have a rhyming attorney...”if the glove doesn’t fit you must acquit”.

The murder aside.. Murdaugh has so much freaking baggage going against him even if he didn’t do it it looks like he did. I’m impartial I’m not going to say I think he did or did not do it... but the baggage dude, people want to hang your ass for that alone you stupid dumbshite.

Oh come on, OJ. You know it’s because you also murdered two people.
So you have a special insight 99.999% of the population doesn’t.

We know you didn’t kill this family you never heard of.
The Mom would not have been your type, anyway.

but....if you DID kill them, how would you have done it?
Hypothetically speaking, of course!

I guess when you turn your ex-wife (and her ‘friend’) into a Pez dispenser you don’t naturally expect to be asked about crimes of passion?

Who knew?

Maybe OJ feels more informed about the Kohlberg massacre.

I don’t know why they think I’m an expert on it.

Stop posting Babylon Bee material under other sources. :-)

Does Ryan Gaydos think that the jury will decide Murdaugh's sentence?

Stopped reading right there.

True enough... The ‘juice’ killed his wife and her bouncy boy... This dude killed his wife and his son... Who kills their own child?

They’ll both burn in hell, but when you kill your own child the flames should be a little bit hotter.
