Orenthal James Simpson..........
We have come to know him as O. J.
13 years since Mr. Simpson was acquitted of the double murder charges of his estranged wife Nicole and her friend, Mr. Goldman......
13 hours it took this jury to convict Simpson.....Guilty ........on all 12 counts....including kidnapping and armed robbery.
The 61 year old NFL Hall-of-famer, faces a possible life sentence.
Without his infamous "Dream Team" of 1995......O. J. was ........well just like us common folks.
Face it......we all knew O. J. did it! We ........as black people, applauded........because his legal team beat the legal system that had beat up blacks for a hundred years.
But .......this case was different.
There was no Johnnie Cochran........no glove that wouldn't fit........no "Dream Team".
This was a case of O. J. ........refusing to just live his life in obscurity........doing something stupid...........and forgeting who he was.
I feel sorry for his children..........they are now in their twenties........but without a mother.....and now possibly.......a jailbird dad.
I hear they are keeping Mr. Simpson isolated from other inmates .......for his own security.
What a sad ending....
