Hahahaha. I hope he’s loving Hell.
The Juice is out of juice 🤷 What a waste of our collective time and attention that piece of shit was.
His hell is trying on gloves that don’t fit for eternity
So. You think he’s having meetings down there with Cochrane?
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Wish Norm were still around for this. :(
Now he can rest knowing his wife’s killer is dead.
He was proven innocent in court
He was proven liable in the civil trial. The additional evidence uncovered by the lawyers in that case was damning. Civil trials typically don’t require a unanimous verdict, but it was unanimous in this case.
He was acquitted, meaning it couldn’t be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that he was guilty.
Ooooooo that’s good
Good.
I really hope he donated his brain to science. The man went from world famous to villain in a single car chase. It’s rare that people fall from grace so far, so quickly. I am not excusing his heinous acts, but I will say it would make a lot more sense, in my mind, if this man’s anger and impulsivity was predicated on a TBI.
For people out of the loop:
One of the first studies to investigate the rates of TBI in offender populations was conducted by Slaughter, Fann, and Ehde (2003) who reported the rate to be 87% in a county jail setting. Schofield et al. (2006) then reported the TBI prevalence in all offender populations to range from 25-87% and, later, Williams et al. (2010) documented the prevalence of TBI in those settings to be 65%. In a more recent study, Ferguson, Pickelsimer, Corrigan, Bogner, and Wald (2012) found that 65% of male inmates, and 72% of female inmates, reported at least one TBI resulting in a change in consciousness. Finally, some of the current authors studied the incidence of TBI in a mental health transition unit at a county jail and found the incidence of TBI among a sample of offenders with a co-morbid mental illness to be 96% (Gafford, McMillan, Gorgens, Dettmer, & Glover, 2015).
Why? He killed his wife in a fit of rage. There wasn’t anything special going on in his brain. A lot of pro athletes end up doing heinous crimes.
He was found innocent so he didn’t kill anyone.
I mean, he had been abusive for years, it was sadly not a unique nor surprising case, except for his fame, but fame doesn’t make you a good person.
What a terrible headline.
Fixed it: Murderer whose trial riveted the nation.
Person who was charged and put on trial for murder died. It’s a legal term. Journalists can get sued for defamation for blatantly calling someone who is not convicted a rapist or murderer. You can safely call OJ an armed robber and kidnapper though.
That’s why the talking heads on tv tend to dance around the terminology and say “allegedly” and “accused of”
Was found innocent
Not guilty is not the same as innocent.
Legally or morally?
Legally. “Found innocent” is a legal conclusion and factually incorrect.
Criminal trials don’t find defendants “innocent”. They find them not guilty, which is a huge difference. It means the prosecution didn’t bring forward enough evidence to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The presence of doubt means they weren’t found guilty. Not that they were found innocent.
Get fucked OJ. Cancer was too good for you.
Lol? What did he do to deserve dying from cancer?
Spare me the virtue signaling pseudo higher than thou bullshit. OJ is a killer and profited off of it. He deserves worse.
Looks like he got away with it after all
Of course it’s NYT. Fucking crackers.
Damn, such a shame Norm MacDonald died before he could make a farewell joke.
World news, huh?
