Dear Bob in Pacifica:
I used to have a girlfriend in Pacifica. At the time, I lived a few hundred miles down the coast, in the tiny hamlet of Oceano.
Together, we were the Pacifica Oceano.
It appears you may have forgotten a few things about the OJ Simpson trial, Bob, so allow me to refresh your memory. First, a few comments and questions:
“Does anyone have a theory why Simpson would stand around a crime scene in downtown LA for ten minutes to wait for two victims to stop moving, bleed out and be stone dead and THEN add meaningless wounds?”
Sure. He might have snapped in jealous rage and killed them within seconds of each other, then, in horror at the realization of what he’d done, slumped to the ground in tearful agony. Then, realizing that her cheating ways had driven him to kill them in the first place, thus it was all her fault, he stood up in a manic rage and proceeded to mutilate the bodies.
That sounds fairly reasonable. The reason they call it “blind rage” is because it’s blind. If you had stopped OJ just before he plunged the knife in the first victim and said, “Hey, listen, buddy — you’re rich and a famous celebrity and all that. Do you really want to end it all over some dame?”
He might have reconsidered.
But, blind rage being blind, his emotions got the better of him and out came the knife. As soon as it was over, he probably sobered up, realized what he had done, and slumped to the ground as it all sank in. Eventually, he would have come around to blaming her for it all, and that’s when he really got pissed. Now it wasn’t just his pride that had been hurt, but his entire life had been ruined. What greater anger could there be?
“Fake crime scene”
Do you mean the bodies were fake, or that some disgruntled Bills fan who lost money on a game OJ played poorly in had set the whole thing up in order to exact his revenge?
“fake reporting”
Do you mean the reporters were fake, or that the news was fake because the whole thing never actually happened, or that they were lying to us by telling us they had been murdered, when, in fact, it was just an angry discussion after OJ lost a heated round of Gin Rummy?
“false propaganda”
Isn’t all propaganda false?
If it’s true, then it’s not “propaganda” — it’s merely the truth.
“the basis for a political credo.”
Isn’t everything?
“While cogitating on the autopsy evidence, go back and read Barry Scheck’s summary”
Yeah, now there’s an impartial source.
As to his guilt, perhaps you’ve forgotten a few facts. (That would be “facts”, Bob, not “propaganda”.)
- The glove with Nicole’s blood all over it that was found outside OJ’s residence was a very expensive type of Italian glove with a very distinct stitching.
OJ was shown wearing the exact same style of glove, with the exact same unique stitching, doing a sideline interview at a football game a year before.
Side question: If (A) the glove had shrunken slightly from the drying blood, (B) OJ had taken some ‘inflamatory’ pills that morning which made his fingers swell, and (C) he had prior training as a professional actor, would it be possible for it to appear to the jury that the glove didn’t fit?
- Footprints at the crime scene came from a size 12 Bruno Magli loafer. Italian, very expensive. Only two outlets in the U.S. sold them, one on the East Coast and one in L.A. And, as you know, size 12 isn’t very average.
According to sales records, only one pair of size 12 Bruno Magli loafers had been sold by the L.A. store in the previous year, to OJ Simpson.
What are the odds that the killer would wear the exact same type of expensive glove that OJ owned?
What are the odds that the killer would wear the exact same type of expensive loafers that OJ owned?
What are the odds he’d wear both?
- The coroner stated that Nicole’s head had been pulled back as the killer stood behind her and a large, sharp knife, such as a ‘commando’ knife, had cut her throat with such force that it almost severed her head from her body.
Two months before, OJ had been rehearsing for an upcoming SEALS movie and had been trained in how a commando cuts an enemy’s throat from behind.
But, with all of the “propaganda” being spewed out by the “fake reporting” at the “fake crime scene”, you’ve probably forgotten these key facts, Bob. As one of the prosecutors said afterward, “We had enough evidence to convict ten men.”
