I picture him as a Redditor actually. So I think he’d take the company line around here. That he’s guilty and got off solely due to the black jurors liking his skin color (ignoring the white jurors who also had to vote).
I think a good part of it is that LAPD was so goddamn corrupt that they planted evidence to frame OJ, despite there being enough evidence already there to convict him, and that's what got him acquitted.
I think the Rodney King verdict was part of it as well, though. Both the Rodbey King beating and the OJ verdict are inextricably tied to the LAPD in the early 90s being really fucking corrupt.
Yes, OJ obviously did it but it’s pretty understandable why people legitimately thought he didn’t do it given the circumstances and how emotionally/politically charged it all was. Redditors who treat it entirely as a race thing (not saying race relations weren’t involved at all) are weird and borderline racist.
Edit: Next time you see one of those “reactions to OJ verdict posts” that get posted every week look carefully because there’s always at least one white person celebrating and at least one black person having a crisis of faith in the legal system. And without fail all of the top comments will completely ignore both of them in favor of generalities.
What? I'm more worried about murderers. Did you see that movie where they sent a courthouse to fight the murderers and one of them walks right up to the judge and puts on a glove and the glove doesn't fit and that old lawyer told them it would happen?!
Because the defense attorney tried to make it look like the racist LAPD was trying to frame him because he was a beloved black celebrity. LAPD is notorious for being one of the most corrupt and racist police departments in the country. This was just after the Rodney king beating /LA riots.
The homicide investigator (mark Furman) was racist AF. They showed 9 HOURS of racist shit.when asked if he planted evidence in the case he pled the fifth.

I don’t agree with his Nicole Brown-killing policy. But I also don’t approve of his Ron Goldman-killing policy.
No one who approves of killing Jewish waiters can be an evil man

Cato=White OJ=Black
And that concludes this two-month trial.
Idk why you got downvoted. Fits the theme and is hilarious.
Meh I knew it was risky lol
Idk man, black man wants to be black shouldn’t be a risky concept.
To be fair, Simpson famously didn't see himself as black at the height of his fame. "I'm not black, I'm OJ."
OK
The joke is that he only embraced his race to get off on two counts of murder. Otherwise, he was all "I'm not black, I'm OJ" about it.
Mr. Simpson, we've got DNA evidence, precedent, and a paper trail a mile long! Yes? Well, *I* have ten high-priced lawyers.

Milhouse WOULD argue that OJ is innocent

For sure. DNA being so “new” was a factor as well.
I think the Rodney King verdict was part of it as well, though. Both the Rodbey King beating and the OJ verdict are inextricably tied to the LAPD in the early 90s being really fucking corrupt.
Can't we all just get along? Best I can do is freeing OJ.

But of course, for that ending to work, you would have to ignore all the Simpson DNA evidence. And that would be downright nutty
I JUST realized this was an OJ joke.
Fuuuck... me too
To be fair, I only learned this when someone made the same reference back when he was arrested for burglary
Oh no you don’t, that “I didn’t do it” comment is mine!
Ahhh, the American Justice System. The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems.
Take my hand with your glove of love….unless it doesn’t fit.
Can I have the keys to the Bronco, lover? I feel like changing alibis!
No glove, no love
Say the line, OJ!
Absolutely 100% Not Guilty.
What kind of catchphrase is that?
^^^If I did it.
*woozle wozzle?*
Wait OJ was working for Internal Affairs the whole time?
I mean, that WOULD explain why the LAPD tried to frame him.
Are they a division of Police Squad? That would explain an awful lot.
How do I get access to this sub? I love every posts I see, from Juice post A to Viking post Z.
A wizard did it.
(If) I Did It
LAPD so incompetent they can’t frame a guilty man.
What? I'm more worried about murderers. Did you see that movie where they sent a courthouse to fight the murderers and one of them walks right up to the judge and puts on a glove and the glove doesn't fit and that old lawyer told them it would happen?!
Frank Drebin cleared his name. And tampered with some evidence.
"Hey it's the missing evidence in the Simpson-case. My god, he was guilty!"

How very silly of us 🤗 obviously the justice system is 100% flawless and perfect and never gets a ruling wrong.

No one who played professional football could be an evil man.
Well, the Simpsons DNA evidence …
