Remember the look on his face at the O.J. trial, when Simpson was found not guilty?
Dunne's face said it all!


Hate to admit that I (even for a fairly literate "Okie" at the time) didn't know Dunne
but by literary reputation.
But the face that got me was the lawyer friend of O.J.'s ...named something like
Kardasian (sp?). When O.J. was read his not-guilty verdict, Kardasian looked
like he'd been hit by a thunderbolt.
Anyway...if the topic interests you, a "sidebar" has surfaced in Los Angeles in the
last year in the local free weekly "NewTimesLA" (a MUCH better local investigative source
than the Los Angeles Times!) and even on local talk radio (on "The John and Ken Show"
on 640AM).

This investigator by the name of William Dear from Dallas has been (apparently)
following his nose and built what I think is at least a plausible case that NOT O.J., but
his mentally-unstable son (from his first marriage) might have done the double murder...
without any fore-knowledge of the act on O.J.'s part. Most damning info. that didn't come
out at the time of the trial (to Dear, and probably me to) is O.J. hiring his son the
services of a very prominent criminal defense lawyer a day or so after the murders (if I recall
Dear's thesis correctly).
This Dear fellow my just be grandstanding, but I haven't heard any "de-bunkers" really
take him (or his theories) on yet in the past year.
In case you're a murder-theory junky, you can find Dear's book on amazon.com:

O.J. Is Guilty But Not of Murder
by William C. Dear

PS: My "brush with fame"
1. Moved to LA in late 1995; accidentally found and took up an apartment 1.5 blocks from
the site of the (in)famous double murder.
2. Got stuck in traffic on Sunset Blvd. while running an errand...on the day O.J. was released
from the criminal trial.

Yeah, I remember that, as well. And he was the one who carried out O.J.'s bag of tricks right after the murder. Dunne was the grey-haired gentleman at the trial wearing a bow tie, and he had such a shocked, upset look on his face when the verdict came in.

As for the "O.J.'s son did it" theory, a friend of mine had that very theory, but I decided when I heard it that it was bogus for several reasons:

* How do you explain the cuts on O.J.'s hands right after the murder,

* Why did O.J. have so many different alibis for what he was doing that night -- an innocent man would have had one,

* What about the "ugly-ass" Bruno Magli shoes -- does his son wear his father's shoes? Are they even the same size?

* How about the gloves -- did his son wear his father's gloves as well? The son and daughter (not Nicole's kids, the ones from the previous marriage) were not particularly close with their father until they would paraded around after the murder. They weren't living at the house before then.

* The DNA evidence incriminated O.J., not his son (his son would have DNA material from his mother, not just O.J. -- the only way the DNA would be the same is if they were identical twins!)

* And finally, and most importantly, although I do think O.J. was tipped off as to the verdict beforehand (word has it someone told him the night before), he had no guarantee until then that he would be found not guilty. O.J. is simply too selfish and narcissistic to ever take the fall for his son and risk going to jail for life. I just can't buy it, with his personality makeup. (For the same reasons, I never bought the theory that the Jon-Benet Ramsey's son killed her, and the parents covered it up.) Anyhow, I will check out this author's theory, and see how he explains how the son could have been guilty.
