OJ on ID

I bounced that idea with an old golfing buddy of OJ's. He said it was bullshite and the Juice had been acting weird for weeks before that. He knows that he killed her.

No to the discovery of son's DNA and I'm kinda like the other posters in that I'm positive OJ did it and I'm burnt out on it as well..was just curious to see if additional info was actually coming out but looks pretty lame so far

Watched it tonight. Still open to the possibility that his son may have played a part, but they've done nothing to eliminate OJ up to this point. So far, these episodes feel kinda padded, so I'm not holding my breath for any "big reveal"...

I'll admit that Lange guy seems protective to a fault, though...

I got burnt out on OJ when it happened and still can't muster any interest in revisiting it.

So did I, but I kind of stumbled upon the espn 5 part oj series while my wife was watching it and it was fascinating

Jason could have definitely done it.

Alibi was weak, had an alleged motive, was alleged to be slightly insane, carried chef knives on him, took meds and fit the description at the scene, he was always wearing a black wool cap.

And OJ's Bruno shoe footprints at the scene can definitely be explained by him going to the crime scene after Jason called him and told him what he allegedly did.

The key point, like in Making a Murderer...is that the almost total lack of blood (Despite what people remember or think because of what prosecutors said in the press prior to trial - trial showed pin prick blood stains) is that the lack of blood in the Bronco more supports someone checking out the scene to confirm a story than someone who was in a brutal knife fight with two people where apparently "gallons of blood were spilled everywhere" - unless OJ was wearing a Hazmat suit and dumped it into a storm drain, it's never made any sense.

Jason is just a theory but it's definitely plausible that OJ took the fall for his son.

will add this: most of what I've seen on this show (so far) is nothing I haven't already seen on the internet, EXCEPT the conversation with Goldman's friend who loaned him her car. She said LAPD returned her keys to her untouched in an evidence bag. According to the hosts, this is puzzling because if the keys were being used in self-defense to fend off the attacker(s) (she said the keys were soaked in blood), there'd be enough DNA on there to make it an open & shut case. When Lange found out they successfully talked to her, he called her a liar. She didn't come off as someone with an axe to grind, so I thought it was an interesting reaction by Lange...

I'd never heard that either. Crazy. At this point Lange is just an annoying windbag who can't stop making excuses for the investigation that was so poorly executed.

one of the juror's basically admitted this on the ESPN documentary

yeah and it's sickening. OJ was as guilty as guilty can possibly be but the prosecution fricked up so badly and it was made to be a black and white issue instead of actually trying the case at hand. Disgusting that he got off. Of course the minorities saw it as retribution for rodney king, while ignoring that this man heinously murdered another human being.

It's interesting, when the verdict was announced, none of my African-American friends were cheering for his acquittal as much as they were cheering for "the system", if that makes sense...

Of course. Cochran made the trial a referendum on civil rights. Once he managed 9 blacks on the jury, it was a foregone conclusion that he'd not be convicted.

And it's why all these shows about OJ are not interesting to me. And in a way, their existence gives credibility to that jury and that case.
