OJ has paid his dues according to NV. Oct '17 release .
He looks to be in good shape and could have a happy ending.

To quote GBs earlier post: Won't be long before...the juice is loose.

And the betting odds were reflective of the hunches.

Does he deserve a happy ending though?

Not sure.

No apology necessary. You were updating the forum on this recent development.

I think OJ is the only one who knows that. My guess, he's playing golf before the end of the year. I do believe in second chances though

What about third chances? He's already squandered his second chance.

He beat the murder charges. In all actuality this was a first charge(9 yrs ago). I'm not a fan by any means but it seems he has paid for what he was convicted of.

I understand, but many believe he got a "second chance" with his first acquittal... and yet he continued to make bad choices.

I'm not saying he shouldn't be paroled now or that he hasn't served sufficient time for the crime he was convicted, but second chance? He's had that.

"If the glove does not fit, you must acquit." - Johnnie Cochran

There are too many loose ends to have pinned OJ down with a criminal conviction in the Nicole Simpson/Ronald Goldman case. Some suspect that he was framed (for reasons I'm not going to go into here). It's a tragic scenario where all of the victims (including OJ himself) were not angels by any means and perhaps the actual truth behind this incident will come out later.

Bad judgement and bad choices on OJ's part contributed to the fix he got himself into.

He's quite lucky imho.

He should go to Vegas, sign footballs with "Have a killer time in Vegas" and charge $100 each.

More along the lines of a victim of his own stupidity when it came to making certain choices pertaining to his personal life.

I'm no fan of OJ. He got away with murder and has sidestepped any financial responsibility in the civil case against him but he was way over-sentenced for the crime that sent him to prison for 9 years.

With that said, I don't care where he goes and what he does when he's out. I'm sure he will be in the news again

I totally agree you can think whatever you want of the guy but he beat the murder rap... this whole armed robbery thing was a completely different case and personally I think he got sentenced of 30 years plus was a bit overdone even though the charges were very serious.

At this point he deserves a second chance best wishes to the Juiceman hopefully he straightens as life and spend some time with his children

Don't agree with the past. Do I believe he killed them, yes, but he was not convicted. I thought the time DID NOT fit the crime and was unfairly punished because people were mad he got off.

Some people at work were talking about this earlier. They were actually angry that OJ was approved for parole. I don't understand that quite frankly. He was convicted of robbery, he served his time and he was on good behavior while in prison. What's there to be angry about? If you want to be angry, be angry at the jury who acquitted him of the double murder. Be angry at the prosecution who screwed up that case so badly that the jury had reasonable doubt.

As far as I'm concerned, the state of NV has done their duty and OJ has served his time. I feel neither happy nor sad and certainly not angry.

The problem with the 'framing' argument is in order for that to be the case the detectives would have had to know he was not out of town or out of the country. They didn't know that and when they first contacted OJ he was in Chicago. That argument doesn't hold any water. Say they plant the glove and blood evidence and OJ was in France. What do they gain by doing that?

Maybe he should move to Canada...you have some room in your neighborhood?

I'm not worried as he will violate his parole within 12 months and be back in prison where he belongs.

I love all of the 'well he probably did kill those people' but this isn't about that and he deserves another shot. NO, the people he killed deserve another shot.

Karma...hope it comes around for him.

I agree... and like I said earlier I'm not a fan of OJ... but the whole thing of "if the glove don't fit you must acquit" argument even if the glove doesn't fit your hand perfectly it's not that hard to kill a woman that weighs what she weighed or for that matter the gentleman that was killed as well but at the end of the day he wasn't convicted so you really can't try to punish him for a crime he was found not guilty of in a court of law

Oh so the "second chance best wishes to the Juiceman" only apply if he isn't your neighbor. Got it. Then again in Canada he might get paid millions, so you're right, leave him here. Best wishes...you gotta be kidding me.

You should be saying best wishes for the families of the victims he killed.

I'm out of this thread as it will end up locked anyways.
