What most people don't know is that part of the $33.5 million civil judgment, which he has not paid, O.J.'s NFL pension and his Florida home were not to be touched. O.J.'s NFL pension is worth $4 million. Poor, poor O.J.
Since the cancellation of his book, copies which have already been printed are up for bid on ebay... however ebay has not been fast enough pulling the copies from the auction site.
$29,000 and still 8 days left, and there are reports as stated in the article above, that copies have sold for a million.
Must be tough these days living on a $4 million pension and property valued in the millions.
In doing some searching on the actual trial, a look back, the amount of evidence against him was astounding. Marcia Clark is one good prosecutor. Here is a quick list of the evidence... just to give you an idea of how bad, and I mean BAD she must be. Is it possible she even took a bar exam? Here's the list...
* DNA analysis of the blood found in, on, and near Simpson�s Bronco revealed traces of Simpson�s, Nicole�s, and Robert Goldman�s blood.
* DNA analysis of bloody socks found in Simpson bedroom were proven to be Nicole�s blood.
* Simpson�s hair was found on Goldman�s shirt even though Simpson claims to have not been at he home and to never have met Goldman.
* DNA analysis of blood on the gloves was proven to be a mixture of Simpson�s Nicole�s, and Ronald Goldman�s. The gloves also contains particles of Goldman�s hair and carpet fibers from Simpson�s Bronco.
* Officers find arrest records indicating that Simpson was charged with the beating of his wife Nicole. Photos of Nicole�s bruised and battered face emerge. Simpson was sentenced with 3 years of community service for this crime.
* Police discover the dome light in the Bronco has been removed. A search of the vehicle reveals the light was carefully placed under the passenger seat and was in good working condition. Puzzling blood smears on the passenger floorboard indicate that Simpson may have purposely removed the light and placed it under the seat before the murders. Then after the murders he may have unsuccessfully tried to find it to put it back in the socket. Police on stakeouts routinely remove the dome lights from their vehicles to avoid detection when the car doors are opened.
* It was discovered that Nicole has one set of keys to her home missing. She had indicate to several family members and friends that she feared Simpson had stolen them to gain entry into her home. The keys were later found in Simpson�s home.
* Paula Barbieri indicated that she had broken up with Simpson the day of the murders. She indicated he seemed very disturbed at the news. Phone records proved that Simpson attempted to contact her shortly before the murders from his Bronco�s cellular phone.
* The left-hand glove found at Nicole�s home and the right-hand glove found at OJ�s home proved to be a match. They also proven to be Simpson�s size. Even though Simpson claimed under oath that he did not own a pair of Aris Isotoner gloves, several media pictures emerged showing Simpson wearing these exact gloves.
* The bloody footprints are quite easily identified as being made from a pair of Bruno Magli shoes. These shoes are quite expensive and extremely rare. The size 12 prints match Simpson�s shoe size. Simpson claims under oath that he does not own any such shoes and in fact indicates that he thinks they �are ugly�. A photograph is introduced showing Simpson wearing the exact shoes at a NFL football game. Simpson claims under oath that the photo is a forgery and is backed up by an expert witness. Later, another photo taken by a different source, also shoes Simpson wearing the same shoes at another NFL football game.
* Friends and family indicate that Nicole was quite consistent in her claims that Simpson had been stalking her. She claimed that everywhere she went she noticed Simpson would be there, watching her. She is afraid because Simpson had already told her he would kill her if he ever found her with another man.
* Ross Cutlery provided store receipts indicating that Simpson had purchased a 12 inch stiletto knife six weeks before the murders. A replica of the knife was purchased by the police and provided a exact match to the wounds on Nicole and Ronald Goldman.
Sorry to bring any of this up again, but with the recent interviews and controversy surrounding O.J. once again I might add... I thought it might be good to refresh peoples memory of one the greatest 'botch' jobs in American history.
I guess if you are planning to kill someone... LA is the place to do it! Hell, just ask this guy
He can vouch for that.
