OJ Simpson Lawyer Alan Dershowitz Says He Would Have Represented Victims ‘If They Had Called Me First’
New York Post ^ | April 12, 2024 | Shannon Thaler

OJ Simpson’s attorney Alan Dershowitz said that he would have represented the alleged victims of the 1994 murder “if they had called me first." Dershowitz made the statement to Fox’s Sean Hannity on Thursday, following the news that Simpson had died from prostate cancer aged 76.

“I want to send my sincerest condolences to the Goldman family, the Brown family. They’ve done a phenomenal job in standing up for their relatives, and if they had called me first before the OJ team called me, I probably would have represented the Goldman or the Brown family,” Dershowitz said, as earlier reported by Mediaite. However, Dershowitz was attributed for rounding out Simpson’s “Dream Team” during the murder trial for the NFL superstar’s ex-wife, Nicole Brown, and Ron Goldman.

Dershowitz told Fox: “I’m very sympathetic with the Goldmans and the Brown family and I wish I could have been on their side, but I wasn’t, and in the end, I think history will remember OJ Simpson as someone who possibly did it, but who the police tried to frame.”

Obviously, it was suicide.

Dershowitz might be a Lolita chaser and a big-time liberal, but he’s not an idiot. He actually is one of the first to defend President Trump against the illegal show trials the Biden regime is putting him through.

He voted for Shitlery and Biden. He’s an idiot. As I said, he says nothing insightful that anybody with half a brain says when talking about all the lawfare.

He’s still considering voting for Biden. He’s either evil or an idiot. Probably both.

So, to this guy money is more important than “just-us?”

No wonder there are so many lawyer jokes.

Guilty much? And yes, the other Freeper is right, the family members of murder victims do not usually retain counsel.

I like Dershowitz, but this is pretty pathetic.

And I actually understand the prosecution blew this case, and did not prove things beyond a reasonable doubt. But let’s not shilly shally and blame shift like this.
