Most of us who participated in the cyberjury believed that OJ might be covering for someone

Isn’t that a crime called “accessory after the fact”? Doesn’t rise to the level of murder, but it is still a serious crime. And yet OJ still walks free.

And I think that a man allegedly involved with either committing or covering up a double murder, appearing at an event that celebrates the depiction of violent death, is an incredibly sick irony. OJ either has enormous cojones, or an incredibly stupid PR guy. Or both.

I don’t want to get embroiled in a big OJ bruhaha, but back in 1994, before the blogs, there were Compuserve forums and I participated as a cyber juror for the OJ trial through a group on the Legal Forum. We were required to watch from gavel to gavel, not just the nightly soundbites that most of you only saw. There were 177 of us, and at the end of the trial, 175 voted not guilty. Unfortunately, the trial we and the jury watched was a far cry from what you heard each night. Today, on Court TV with Catherine Crier, it was announced that a documentary by an investigator is about to air and the claims were pretty astounding, if true. I think even Catherine had her “guilty as hell” position shaken slightly. Most of us who participated in the cyberjury believed that OJ might be covering for someone and if today’s reports prove out, then that is the case. The primary named suspect today is OJ’s oldest son, Jason, who apparently has a well-documented problem with instant rage. Now, during the original investigation, Jason was ruled out due to what at the time seemed an airtight alibi. Apparently, that alibi has fallen apart with the discovery of a falsified time card and that instead of being at his restuarant as claimed, he left at 9:30 that night and he was angry because Nicole had promised to show up for his big “chef” premier and didn’t show. I didn’t hear the beginning of this interview and I came in right when the investigator said, “we think we found the knife.” Catherine backed up this statement by saying she had seen everything.

I hope this is the case, as it has always bothered me what the media and then the public afterward did to OJ. Oh, and by the way, when I first joined this cyberjury, I thought he was guilty as hell too. By the end of the prosecution’s case and before the defense put on a single bit of evidence, I had changed my mind. Seeing the real time trial very much made the difference. There were some days when I would listen to the wrapups and wonder what the media had been watching because it sure didn’t match anything I’d been seeing. All for what its worth.

I used to be the loss prevention specialist at the Gap on Wilshire and 20th about 6 or 7 years ago. I remember him about once or twice coming into the store with his children. A number of our customers were so disgusted they left the store.
