Is OJ Simpson a murderer? he was never convicted of it...

OJ was convicted of it in civil court (where the standard is 51% evidence) but “found” not guilty in criminal court where the standard is overwhelming evidence.

I see it as double jeopardy to try someone twice on the same offense.

How about we set up 4 more legal systems so that we can keep retrying cases by any standard of measure?
