@@Nicoletta13 sure you may. For one, morally, as a man with success, I cannot put in my mind another man with far more success than I, go out of his way to kill his ex wife of two years when he had everything going his way, had a model as girlfriend and other side pieces and was regarded as an international superstar/legend when in contrary to him, his ex wife’s life was going downhill. I just do not see the motive. Had he done it from jealousy, it would have happened way sooner when Nicole was physically at peak. Physically, he was a broken ex football player. OJ Simpson isn’t a big man by any means, he was a 46+ yo man with two bad knees, a bad back and bad hands. For those that haven’t fought a day in their life cannot understand how ridiculous it would have been for him to pull that off. He cannot run or do a simple squat, he limps every step he takes. It is impossible for a guy his shape to be able to kill a young primed male and a female without receiving any physical damage (No the cut on his finger isn’t enough). To then get back home, clean and pack in time before a flight seems impossible with all that in mind. As for the evidences, it has already be discussed and too much tampering that went on so I am not going to revisit again. Last but not least, a serial killer named Glen Rogers was a big and strong lunatic. He killed a lot of women with knives (behead, dismember) and was reported to be in town while the crime took place. Physically and mentally, he is by far more suited to have done all of that. It was verified that the day after the murders, he called day off at work and showed signs of a heavy facial bruises. He literally confessed about it. The reason why he killed them is unknown, was it a drug hit? Was it just another murder that he used to do? It was even rumoured he had slept with Nicole before. We don’t know but it was damn sure not OJ Simpson. It was done by someone with knife skills that was used to kill people and kept doing it. It isn’t something an average Joe can just switch on and off. Portraying Simpson as a jealous ninja killer is laughable. He is too damn unorganized, slow and loud to pull all that off and get away with it.

Watching this for the first time was just unbelievable how OJ Simpson was the only suspect and not another suspect in this entire case. If they could retrial OJ Simpson they would have done a lot of things differently, but the outcome would have been the same. This trial was about the birth of court tv justice and ratings, only thing different was the financial resources that OJ Simpson had to defend himself. For first time in America the shoe was on the other foot and the peanut gallery was upset about the verdict, inspite of all the police corruption in this case. They would have been satisfied with falsifying evidence to convict OJ Simpson.....27 years later he's still guilty as hell, but a new generation sees this entire trial differently.

There wasn't another suspect because both nicole and rons blood was found in his car, not another suspects car. nicole's blood was found on his socks, not another suspects socks. They found a 3 and half inch deep cut on his left hand middle finger, no cuts were found on another suspects hand. There was a blood trail from the crime scene to oj's car that followed on to his driveway going up to his bathroom. No other suspects had a blood trail going from the crime scene onto their own driveway. He admitted in his police interview to bleeding all over his home and bronco on the night of the murders.

That's the whole point OJs Blood found on the socks with Nicole's blood, not Ronald Goldman's blood the problem was why was there EDTA found in OJs blood on those socks?. "And then finding Nicole and Ronald Goldman's blood weeks later. This is the point that people are not willing to see a murder of such a magnitude and so little blood evidence inside OJs residency. But I understand your cultural reasons of why you would believe police officers who lie or falsify evidence and are able to get a conviction through the DAs office, because the poor lacks the financial resources to challenge the evidence or background the police officer involved in this case. OJ Simpson wasn't that poor guy . "OJs Lawyers even challenged the DNA evidence and how DAs office went about handling the situation letting Ms Clark explain DNA was another big mistake in the closing arguments.
