OJ Simpson died

  • Just heard it on the news.

    Well, he's getting justice now!

    The justice of man is HIT OR MISS at best. Money, fame, and a good lawyer can allow one to escape justice in this world.
    But the justice of God is perfect and inescapable. Strive to be right with God. That is *all* that matters.

    .

    In his case it wasn't any of those things that helped him escape justice, but something else about him ...

  • I'm 99% convinced OJ didn't do it, but rather his son did, and he took the fall to protect him.  There's very solid evidence to back that up.

    Yeah, the fact that he didn't actually commit the murders.

    I've never heard that theory before. I just kind of grew up and was taught that OJ was guilty as sin. I was a senior in HS during the whole low-speed chase, highly public trial, etc.

    I don't understand

    A) why a father would take the Murderer label (go to prison?) for his son. That's some serious, HEROIC levels of selfless love, charity, and devotion there. Is OJ a literal saint?

    B) Why would the son kill these individuals? I've never heard of a child getting involved in relationship-based disputes of their parents. Oh I'm sure it's happened sometime in history, but it's EXCEEDINGLY rare to say the least. Most kids aren't that "emotionally invested" in their parents' relationships to the point they would commit murder. The sex life of one's parents is usually something children would "rather not think about".

  • Here's a summary of the evidence, but I've seen pictures of some of the items discussed, etc.

    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/oj-simpson-book-jason-simpson-william-dear_n_1397583

    Some evidence isn't cited here.  Goldman held a black belt in some martial art and his hands black and blue, where he clearly put up a fight, and OJ was stripped naked and examined, and found not to have a scratch on him.  That wasn't cited in the article, but the evidence against OJ's son Jason is very solid.  There were fingerprints found at the scene that didn't match either OJ or the victims.  Jason later let payments lapse on a storage locker, and the PI purchased its contents at auction.  In it was found a knife (with his initial on it) that forensic pathologists concluded was 100% consistent with the weapon that caused the wounds.  Jason had just gotten in trouble for attacking someone with a knife, and wrote in his journal about how he was losing control to rage and would kill someone with a knife.  PI found pictures of him wearing the hat that was found at the crime scene.  He falsified time cards to give him an alibi.  Etc. etc.  There's a ton of evidence that Jason Simpson did it and OJ knew about it, and decided to take the fall for him (though he got acquitted).

  • OJ deserved, then, to be thrown in jail for obstruction of justice, and conspiring to keep a murderer free on the streets instead of in jail where he belongs.

    Either way, O.J. was an evil man.

    Sure, that was a crime too, but covering for a child vs. murdering two people entail dramatically different degrees of evil.  Many people have tried to cover for their children out of a misguided love and loyalty.

    OJ was obviously no saint, but no one has ever claimed that he was.

    I've always thought that while OJ was almost certainly "in on it", that he had an accomplice or accomplices, and he may not have actually committed the murders.  The son is as likely as any, and more so than many.

    Given what's known about his son, his admitted fantasies about knifing someone, his having a short time earlier attacked a former employer with a knife, his issues with rage, and then the physical evidence, including the knife found in his storage locker, a picture of him wearing the same knitted cap as what was found on the scene of the murders, and the lack of any physical evidence against OJ (not a scratch on his entire body while Goldberg's hands had been beaten to a pulp) ... it all adds up to the son having done it.  It's unclear whether OJ was there at the time or showed up afterwards.  He's certainly complicit in covering up the crime, but he almost certainly didn't do it.

    Many people have been wrongly convicted because the lazy police "zero in" on a prime suspect, putting blinders on, so that they ignore and "don't notice" other viable suspects, but then they don't have big money to spend on high-profile defense attorneys either.

  • Can someone help me out with locating Church doctrine on praying for reprobates who die without repenting?  I wonder what the value is in such an activity.

  • Well, he's getting justice now!

    He got temporal justice, too. God afflicted him with prostate cancer which killed him. That's a bad way to die.

    Regarding OJ's victims, I have no sympathy for them: a race-traitor whore and a Christ-murdering Jєω.

    The general premise is that God is outside of time. If we pray, it is possible that these are heard in a retroactive sort of way.

    Also, as mere mortals we can never know with absolute certainty what goes on in the soul during a dying person's last moments. That is between that soul and God. 
    Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you, all things pass away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. He who has God finds he lacks nothing; God alone suffices. - St. Teresa of Jesus
