Like a lot of white people who are sports fans, I wanted OJ Simpson to be innocent. I wanted to believe that the police framed him, that drug dealers did it, that someone else did it, but the fact is that only OJ could have done it. Look at the possible scenarios and why they aren’t plausible:
1) The cops framed OJ — To do that, they theory is that they got OJ’s, Nicole’s & Ron’s blood from the crime scene & preserved it using EDTA & then put their blood on OJ’s sock, the 2 gloves, his bedroom, the Ford Bronco, the Bundy crime scene, among other places. But they didn’t have samples of Nicole’s & Ron’s blood, so how did their blood get into OJ’s vehicle, sock & gloves? Detective Tom Lange has stated in various interviews that the cops weren’t sure if OJ was a 3rd victim or not when they arrived at Rockingham & entered his house cautiously looking for bodies of him and his live-in housekeeper after they were let in by SImpson’s daughter who was sleeping in a bungalow behind the house when the cops arrived. They weren’t sure when OJ left town and initially assumed he was out of town when the crime occurred. For the reason that the cops weren’t sure if OJ did it or not at that point, I don’t believe they planted evidence. I’ve read about the Rampart Scandal from 2000 & I don’t see a correlation here as those Rampart cops were motivated by money, not justice, as the latter would be the case if they were trying to frame OJ because they thought he was guilty.
2) Drug dealers — Crimes by these guys aren’t particularly thought out & complex. They typically just kill people very simply and move on. They don’t frame others for it. They don’t expect to be caught and have no fear of it. Many of them prefer you know it was them to plant fear into the minds of their enemies, and their friends. The idea that a drug dealer would kill someone & then frame a 3rd party is highly implausible based on the history of tens of thousands of drug murders that haven’t including framing another person and that, to this date, I can’t find any evidence of a drug murderer framing someone or even attempting it.
3) Someone else killed Nicole & Ron — Theories include OJ’s son, a friend, a serial killer, mobsters, someone hired by OJ, etc, but if you add up the circumstances that virtually all people agree with & match up the facts we know, those scenarios aren’t plausible. If someone other than OJ did it, why isn’t their blood anywhere and everywhere? And how or why would these other killers get OJ’s blood at the crime scene and other places when he’s allegedly not there or doesn’t want you to know he’s been there?
4) Programmed — Conspiracy theorists screw up the real conspiracies by seeing conspiracies everywhere. Most experts on the JFK assassination are convinced it was a conspiracy, and I am reasonably certain that a conspiracy existed for over 30 years now based on what I’ve read, and I’ve read many books on it & watched many documentaries & interviews on it. But I don’t fall for other conspiracies simply because I believe in 1 possible conspiracy. The world is not flat, we did indeed put men on the moon, and OJ was not part of a programmed mind-control experiment. The CIA’s efforts at mind-control & brainwashing pale in comparison to what religion has done to the world’s minds, which means they never had any luck with it, nor found any drugs that were effective and left a person able to do anything while under the influence of it. Religion has proved the best way to control hearts & minds is to convince someone to do something they wouldn’t normally do by simply presenting them an alternate reality & convincing them to believe it, like there’s a old white man in the sky who created all we see & created us, with other related fables that are counter to known scientific facts, then ask them to do it in the name of religion or to save themselves and society.
Virtually all white people knew he was guilty, and I believe a heavy majority of black people knew as well, but the mostly black jury (9 out of 12) acquitted him not because they thought he was innocent or that the state hadn’t proved their case, but to smack down the LAPD and strike a blow for black people who were ever intimidated, beaten, framed or coerced by the LAPD or cops everywhere. The OJ case turned into a race war, and on that day, the blacks won and the justice system lost.
OJ did get a decent amount of punishment; he didn’t get away scot-free by any means. For starters, his reputation was forever destroyed and he became a sideshow freak. He lost all his assets (at least $133,000) and his house on Rockingham. He spent 15 months in county jail during the trial and then spent 9 years in a Nevada prison, which happened due to trying to recover his allegedly-stolen assets to essentially keep the Goldmans from getting them if it could be proven the assets were indeed his, so in a way, the 9 years was due to the double murder case, and considering the fate of virtually everyone else involved in that case, Simpson got sentenced like a murderer would. We’re talking about armed robbery & unlawful detainment and he got 33 years for that, which should have been more like 10 to 15 tops. That was payback, as many murderers & rapists get less time than that usually.
My next question is why hasn’t the Pro Football Hall of Fame kicked him out? If they didn’t want to induct Bob Hayes for 30 years due to what he did after his football career ended, then what you do after your career ends apparently matters in some cases, but not OJ’s, and that’s an unfair double standard.
