OJ Simpson sentencing

[JimFitz]

GOOD RIDDANCE. JackA$$

I think you have to have a conscience in order to be haunted, which OJ doesn't have. He's too much of a sociopath. He certainly looked very happy on the golf course over the years & dodging out on paying the Goldmans, as though that was a game.

Bye, bye OJ!

Found this...not sure how accurate it is....


Article dated 9/2007
His daughter and son are now in college, Sydney, 21, at Boston University and Justin, 19, at Florida State, having graduated from the Gulliver Preparatory School.

I thought that he said that he is broke. I wonder how he's paying for that. Maybe scholarships?

I'm so glad- he's such a scumbag! And I don't even care if he was given a vigilante sentence-he deserves it.

He cries poverty but his wealth is sheltered.

I feel so horrible for those kids. I wonder what their relationship is like with Nicole's family? I hope it is strong and that the kids don't hold anything against them.

I had a friend in high school who's pregnant mother was murdered. Years later, her father was found guilty and sentenced to something like 25 years. I know that she always claimed his innocence even in the face of evidence that said he did it. I think the reality, the truth, was too hard for her to handle. Her father died about 4 years later in prison from a heart attack.

Sydney has had her own troubles with the law.



Sydney Simpson 50 hours Sentence

Sydney Simpson is the daughter of O J Simpson. She was sentenced recently for 50 hours of community service. After her sentence she did not appear in the court but on the other hand her attorney appeared for her in the court. In fact her lawyer accepted the deal on her behalf in a teleconference with a judge.

Sydney Simpson is 20 years old. She was arrested in January 2005 due to ruffian behavior. This was because she was involved in a confrontation with police during a fight outside a prep school basketball game. What is noteworthy is that after she was arrested she repeatedly yelled profanities at officers. These were basically the police officers who were called to Ransom Everglades School to stop a fight after a boys' basketball game against Gulliver Prep.

Sydney Simpson is a student of Gullliver who had graduated when she was 19 years old. She has reportedly exhibited violent behavior and had slapped an officer's hand, as per the police report said. Nonetheless the report also said that she had pleaded not guilty to the charge of resisting arrest without violence and disorderly conduct. The judge however was reluctant to hear that and has sentenced her; the judge also said that the charges will be dropped against if she completes the community work.

Sydney Simpson is one of the children of the former football star, broadcaster and actor OJ Simpson.

Sydney Simpson had earlier complained that her father was trying to kill her and this had happened at their Miami home. She and her father were having arguments and when it reached an extreme level she assumed that her father might kill her and hence she locked herself up in a room shouting for help. Thereafter she made a call to 911 and when the security people arrived home, Simpson wasn't there while the daughter explained that she and her father had been fighting over family issues that did not need intervention. She then termed the incident as an abuse thing.

Sydney Simpson was six years old when her mother was killed. She also has a brother Justin and both of them, as they have both spent a lot of time with their maternal grandparents they are fully aware what had happened to their mother.

I live in Miami about 10 minutes from his home. He lives by Killian High School. Don't let him fool you. I see him out at P.F. Changs all the time. He was living the high life here in Miami. Golfing and hanging out at restaurants IS his past-time. His daughter is friends with some of my daughters friends and she is doing well now, but had a lot of problems during high school. Son played football at Gulliver for a couple of years and is at FSU now. Both of them are doing pretty well from what I hear. O.J. could have made something of his life after his 1st trial don't you think? Instead he chose to rub people's noses in the fact he is able to just walk around and got away with murder imo........Oh well, now we will never know who killed Nicole with him being stuck away in prison... ......since he vowed to spend his days looking for the killer.........he got what he deserved.

 

[veraletta]

since he vowed to spend his days looking for the killer,
maybe someone in jail could hand him a mirror.

Oh we ALL know who KILLED Nicole....yup we ALL know. And now he is finally behind bars Maybe NOT in jail for killing Nicole and Ron but he is behind bars just the same.

Dinner at PF Changs is the high life? Wow.

What an interesting comment. What should he have 'made with his life' at that point? How was eating at restaurants and playing golf rubbing people's noses in anything?

A lot of people get all pissed at OJ for not being convicted at the first trial. I don't get that. The system worked as designed. He was found not guilty. If you want to be angry at someone, be angry at the prosecutors. They's the one who did a crummy job of things, assuming he was guilty.

 

[missypie]

Someone on the radio (on the defense side) said that for anyone else with no prior criminal record, the judge would have consdiered probation. We're all treating him like a murderer, but in the eyes of the law, he's clean. I think the murder definitely came into play on this one, and I certainly wouldn't lose sleep over it!, but I don't know if it's right legally.

 

[tinatark]

He's not broke - he gets a hefty pension monthly from the NFL. He doesn't have a "job" because those monies would be garnished and paid to the Goldman family.

I do think he killed Ron and Nicole, and got away with murder, but this case is so clearly seen as the payback for that... even law enforcement, at the scene of the "crime" referenced that.

I have a feeling he has a great case for appeal - considering the situation, players, etc.

If it were anyone else going in to get their personal stuff, especially after asking the FBI for assistance in retreiving it, and being told to "go get it"... they wouldn't have been charged with a crime.

Anyone who thinks this sentence and conviction is about the events which happened in a Las Vegas hotel room is mistaken, in my opinion.

He did shove it in everyone's face that he got away with murder.
Remember when he was aquitted he vowed to find the killer.
What happen to that? It took 14 years for him to look in mirror.

He pleaded poverty when he was ordered to pay Goldman's family in the civil suit. So yes, P.F. Changs is the high life if you supposely can't pay your bills and debts.

Who cares at this point whether it is about Vegas or Nicole and Ron...the bottomline is that the JUICE is in JAIL....see here he is the first photo of him in jail posted for your enjoyment here on the DISBoards

So...what do you all think???

So, in Vegas, if you hold people against their will, brandish a gun and threaten them then you can only get off with probabtion? That is scary in itself.

So, the FBI told him to kidnap and rob people at gun point? Yes, I know they didn't say for him to do that, but he did. He was found quilty and is being punished for it. Not everyone will agree with the sentence, but, I for one am glad that he is behind bars.

 

[momrek06]

Let's not forget the first words out of the Judge's mouth today to OJ was....

"You, Mr. Simspon are BOTH ignorant and arrogant"!!! Yup, she is right and she is the Judge!!!

So what if 14 years ago I declared that I would find the murderer? Is the fact that I haven't turned anyone up proof that I am shoving your face in it?

There is a difference in being impoverished and being able to pay someone who won a civil suit. If the arbiter of that decision decided that he would be able to keep enough money to eat at a chain restaurant, then I don't see a problem with his ordering the occasional lettuce wrap.
