31. I feel OJ was set up. Of course they have wanted him from the gate and most people whom had something stolen from them of any significants would want it back and most of us blacks would go get it. It dosent matter who had rights to it it orininally belonged to OJ thats whom it was stolen from. Im sure most of the people invovled knew his passion for the stuff which made great oppurtunity too set him up. Next they will all be willing to testify agaisnt him they will all get off and he will be facing alot of time for bull. That the revenge from the past.

32. OJ IS RESPONSIBLE for the choice he made to enter that hotel. Given his high profile. He put himself in this mess.

33. This piece of crap murdered his wife and another man, got away with it, and now he thinks he can do whatever he wants. You can slice and dice this all you want. There WAS a gun, and that makes it armed robbery.

The guy's no hero to the black community. Stop treating him like one.

34. How come no one has mentioned here that one of the men he was robbing ,threatning ,strongarming, whatever is now saying he doesn't want to press charges and the other is in mt. siani hospital after having a heart attack, and if you read or listen to all the reports this all leads back to mr Goldman? I am in no way an OJ supporter, but this all sounds kinda fishy to me,#18 the oracle makes a good point there are so many OJ haters in the world the trial for this will probably only be revenge for murder.

35. O.J. Will Walk Again..... This Time He Should!!!!!!
If you record someone without them knowing it is,nt that against the law?
if you have or sell stolen sports memobilla is,nt that against the law?

Did he know those other guys had guns?

Also I remember the big stink Fred Goldman had when O.J . team announced the book
and movie/tv deal know FRED GOLDDIGGER has pub rights he,s going to profit on something he call dispickable and immoral I would have respected him I he had a burn book party.

I may be one of the few americans that think he didnt kill his wife AND Ron......but it seems like white
america wont mind if he gets life in jail for these RIDCULUS CHARGES.

36. I would like to hear the entire tape before I am satisfied about the situation.
As the rest of the world, I do remember the moment this guy was found not guilty years ago over the murder of his wife and other guy. I did'nt care much for O.J. or his problems at the time and yet I somewhat feel the same today.
My only issue is:
Why is it that everytime I see or hear anything about him, it's all about a murder that was beaten years ago. I understand that we "SAY" it's not a race issue, but a justice issue.
If it is all about justice, then why don't you people believe in your own system?
EXACTLY!! In the murder trial, O.J was 99.9% guilty until rumors began to surface about a possible civil riot and the courts could not funtion correctly afterwards..
At the time, I was living in Milw., Wi. and I don't believe that anyone cared about the entire case other than the fact that it was good entertainment ( Suppose that's why Marcia Clarke & E.T. came out of the woodworks today in Vegas). Call it what you want, but I'm the truth and here's how I see it. It's about Pride..White Pride...and a Blackman went free. I have love for my country, but despise many of my countrymen...If I don't get to see my comment posted, I'll enjoy the fact fact that I touched a nerve and the "TRUTH" hurts.

37. OJ should have used his common sense and left the Ganster moves to Hollywood. He will be forced to take responsibilty for his actions by the court of law. He had a choice. Setup or not.

38. I'm with you Joe Johnson! In fact there are millions who are with you Joe Johnson! Lack of evidence always speaks for itself in any case. And that is why, hopefully, we have an unbiased jury in our judicial system. The millions understand manipulation of happenings to fit the crime and we have all experienced it. Be it through the unjust experiences of family members or friends who have had and will continue to have these lifelong experiences to satisfy the needs of the mobs who want to avenge merely for the sake of avenging! I'm just glad we're not living in the days of frenzied mobs gathering up the posse for a good ole hanging! Or are we?

39. OJ's toned down demeanor tells the world that he knows he's in big trouble this time. No talking, no smiling, nothing.

40. OJ is in some real trouble here. If that is his voice, then I think he's done.
It doesn't matter who has title to the property. If it was stolen from him, he is not legally entitled to recover it in this manner. In other words, having valid title to the property in question is not a valid defense to robbery charges. The victims had clear possession of the property and OJ and his friends used force to take it away from them.
Based on the tape, it is clear that OJ is shouting orders that are backed up by weapons. He can argue that he didn't know the other guys are armed, but based on what I hear on the tape, no reasonable jury will buy the idea of "I didn't know the other guys with me were armed". Therefore, the crime is clearly armed robbery. The fact that OJ was not himself holding a gun is irrelevant as long as he was participating in a robbery where he was using the threat of the guns others with him were holding to take property away from others.
OJ is not going to get away this time. Johnny Cochrane is no longer with us, but even he would have had a tough time getting past a tape of OJ telling people to get up against the wall and a whole lineup of witnesses that will end up testifying against him including living victims and co-conspirators. Sloppy police work, racist cops, and incompetent prosecutors will presumably not be involved this time either.
OJ's problems (including the 1994 murders) stem from cocaine addiction and the paranoia and delusions that accompany it. In interviews since the murders in 1994, you can see that OJ has changed drastically from the person who used to be a sports reporter on TV. His life has just gradually spiralled downward over the years, and now after beating the rap in the trial of the century, he'll end up being convicted in a pretty clear-cut armed robbery charge and put in prison for at least 5 years if not more. He won't be there forever though, and eventually he'll get out and his money will be gone and he'll just be a pathetic old man with some interesting stories to tell. If he's honest, he'll admit that cocaine was his downfall.
So what should OJ's lawyers do? If they want to make money, they'll milk the case for all its worth and write a book after its over. If they want to do what's best for OJ, they'll try to get him to plea bargain as quickly as possible. It would be anticlimactic after the classic murder trial that filled thousands of hours of television coverage, but it's really the only reasonable option at this point. One way or another, OJ will be in prison and a lot of people will write books about it and try to cash in on the situation.

42. OJ be gilty dawgz!!! He be rite dat book "If I did it" az a tribute to hiz dead wife and his too kidz. Wasn't dat nice of him?

What kind of father writes a "fictional" account of murdering the mother of his children? I feel really sorry for his kids.

I agree with the other comments about Fred Goldman; what a "despicable hypocrite" to use Fred's own words. Blood money baby!!!

Posted at 1:43PM on Sep 20th 2007 by JosefBach

43. I wouldn't be surprised if the Goldman's didn't set this up. Fred Goldman is a nasty, nasty man. I agree that a jury found OJ not guilty and the case is over and done with. First the Goldman's didn't want the book published and then they saw dollar signs and want it published. All the money in the world is not going to bring their son back. The bitterness and anger is going to destroy them. They need to move on with their life and quit obessing with OJ. They must have a shallow life to only worry about him and what he is doing. If he is guilty, he has to live with that, and will be punished by a higher power one of these days. If he wanted what belonged to him, he was entitled to it. Someone tipping him off was working for someone, and hopefully that will all come out in the trial. And no one likes Marcia Clark either and her comments only make her look bitter because she couldn't win the trial against OJ. She needs to get a life too. I say let the courts do their job and everyone needs to stand by their verdicts.

44. OJ COME BUY A WHITE BRONCO FROM ME AT DARCARS TOYOTA FREDERICK, MD

45. First of all, let me tell all of you who are reading this. I wish for all of you to get on with your lives. Everyone in this case has a hunger for money. Including O.J. I feel he loves the Lime light, and loves the Media attention. He has that Love him Hate him thing going for himeself and this is why everyone like myself is taking time out of their lives to comment or watch this Man. STOP IT! If we stop giving him the time of day, then he'll go away. We'll never know if he really killed Ron & Nicole, and we'll never be his eternal Judge. I personally hope they do put him away, because then the media will find someone else to go after. No more O.J no more Golman's. By the way, where's the Brown's??? Everyone keep saying what he owes the Goldmans, but what about Nicoles Family? They do not care I tell you that much. They know no amount of Money in the world will stop the Killing of innocent people, and it for sure wont bring back Nicole...
