Simpson was a great football player. An amazing running back.
As a human being, he has not done so well. Personally think he will struggle again when he gets out. He appears to have some strong anti social traits. I have never assessed him so wont pass out any diagnoses. But generally people who struggle with these traits do not change and no amount of rehabilitation seems to help.

He described OJ as a truly gifted athlete but not very bright and that OJ's impoverished childhood background in SF may have had a profound effect on some of his poorer adult decisions in life. No excuses, just the way things turn out sometimes. |

It's interesting how people get so angry (some even in this thread) over OJ.

Two innocent human beings were brutally murdered. By OJ? Who knows other the OJ, but setting aside that terrible crime, a worshiped sports figure (OJ) spent years in prison for a different crime, desroying his image and ruining people that had faith in him.
There just are no winners in any part of this story. |

Doesn't he have some kinda retirement plan from NFL ?? Other then that he can't have to much cash unless it's been stashed. His employability is zero.' Of course he'll probably get catered to at the golf clubs. Maybe not, I wouldn't want him in my club as a member.

objectively speaking, for the crimes he was actually convicted of he served more than his fair share of time.
The "other" trial is irrelevant as he was acquitted. Not taking sides one way or another, but 9 years for a first time felony offender (technically) is about par for the course and fair amount of time served. He got out on the "points system" which is designed to be objective and his score was more than enough for release. http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/o...sment-48687936 |

When I lived in Florida I had a few properties in different states and if I remember it right you could only claim one homestead.

Would I want a convicted armed robber or murder next door to me of course not no one would... do I really care what happens to OJ Simpson not really I think what he did was pretty stupid as well as a major crime who deserve to be punished for it... whether he's a murderer or not is another story that's really not for me to decide either way.... I will leave it at this my thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the victims of the murder as well as those involved in the armed robbery case he was convicted for...

I was hoping they would say "sorry bro" and deny him.

For our TRF brethern over seas that don't know, OJ (the juice) a nickname for OJ Simpson (I think the OJ is short for Orange Juice). OJ Simpson is a star American football player in College and the National Football League. He played many seasons and is considered to be one of the best running backs ever. He was charged with the knife murders of his ex wife and her current friend/boyfriend Ronald Goldman. It was a sensational trial back in the 90s and it ended with a verdict of "not guilty." About nine years ago he was convicted of a different crime, I am not up on the details but I believe it was kidnapping; he has been in prison ever since. He was just paroled and will be released from prison in a few months.

Back in the 1980s, OJ Simpson was a product spokesperson for Tree Sweet Orange Juice. Perhaps this is where some of the misconception arises from. Having grown up in the SF mid-peninsula during his collegiate career at USC, Orenthal James was pretty well known as OJ's actual first/middle names. Besides, who would name their child Orange Juice?

Karma. Yup that's the word.
Imho he was acquitted because of a failed prosecution not because of his innocence. It could be argued that his penalty for the follow up transgression was disproportionate to the crime but ... Karma is a b@tch. Hopefully he stays out of the news for the rest of his days.
