OT: Buried knife found on OJ Simpson's old property is being tested

[Koma]

Why does anyone care about this? Based on what Peyton Manning's apologists were saying a few weeks ago, the proper reaction is "This happened over 20 years ago. Who cares?"


(Edited to add: Yes, this is sarcasm.)

Goodell says it was Brady!

 

[fnordcircle]

Even if they could, why bother? He's already in jail on the robbery charges in NV.

Agreed.

O.J. can't be prosecuted for this again, though. What a dunce that cop is. He should do some serious prison time for at least obstructing justice, if true.

It will affect his legacy, if it proves he murdered them.

Not that it's rosey, but for the die-hards that thought he was innocent, this will change their minds unless they are in denial.

It was found in 1998 if i heard correctly, long after oj walked. even if he turned it over it couldn't be used.

A psycho girl will always give away the fact that she's a psycho in her eyes. That said, the fact that she's crazy just adds to the fact that it would be a very fun one and done.

Just make sure the crazy doesn't get your phone number or home address. Going with a fake name is a pretty good idea, too.

Well first they have to find dna evidence that it was the murder weapon. But if it is i agree it will change his legacy generally but not with his most ardent supporters, they'll say it was planted like the gloves.

Right. I don't think it changes people's minds if the DNA evidence comes back with a DNA mixture of 2 or all 3 of the people who where there that night.

People that think the LAPD framed him will continue to believe that.

People who believe that there is a .0000000001 chance that someone who had the same DNA strand as OJ also killed Brown and Goldman.

They absolutely are taking some creative license so you can't watch it and think everything is 100% historically accurate but it's been pretty fun to watch.

Can believe that was almost 22 years ago. I was a new college grad, single and in debt up to my ass.

We had just bought a house and were at Sears buying a fridge and washer/dryer. The OJ white Bronco chase was on a bank of TVs all over the store.. We drove home and the chase was still on...WTF???? That's when I knew it would be a cluster&*^*. Anybody else and there have the spike strips and guns drawn.......

 

[chasa]

maybe they can send this case to goodell for arbitration.

OJ I found that you were at least generally aware that you murdered those people, im suspending you 3 and a half games, and taking 4 picks from the patriots.

 

[Joey007]

I do believe double jeopardy is voided if there is new evidence presented.

Are you sure on that? Wasn't sure if there were exceptions to it.

 

[denverpatsfan]

I am appalled that people still wear their OJ Bills jerseys with pride. I guess it's a "Sticking it to the man" thing? Maybe someone here can help explain?

The entire world stopped. Just like when the verdict was announced.

We'll never see anything so bizarre and strange again.

Its called reverse racism.

I wouldn't be so sure of that.

Very true.

And now you're what, in your 40's and in debt up to your knees?

On a much more serious note, the most revealing thing to me when that verdict was announced was the sheer jubilation from the black people on camera. It was the same reaction you'd see from football fans at the moment of a winning TD of a playoff game. I didn't expect that.

 

[1960Pats]

So they found the knife.

If it didn't slit you must acquit.

Which reminds me. I can see it now. Somebody brings the knife to OJ's prison cell and they film him struggling to hold it in his hand while he makes weird faces as if he can't get his hand around it.
