He broke the law.

We can probably all agree some of OJ's property was there so Simpson may have been trying to resolve the problem without getting the police involved so his so called friends didn't get busted in the process.

 

and it backfired....

I wouldn't feel bad for stealing my own stuff.

 

And it wasn't all his own stuff. Much of it was memorabilia that was legitimately owned by the collectors. There were personal items that belonged to OJ but it was the minority of what was there.

 

That being said I always though the sentence was absolutely ridiculous. It didn't match the circumstances of the crime at all. I will continue to believe he was sentenced for what happened in 1994 not for the reality of the circumstances around the armed robbery.

Mostly, I agree with you here. But, while I can't speak with authority, I recall reading/learning that Nevada has unusually stringent penalties for armed robbery, which is already very stringent everywhere.

OJ got more time than the guys with the guns. It was definitely payback.

Yeah, that was self serving BS.

He should live out the rest of his life as a pariah. Never interviewed, never recognized. No interest whatsoever. Hope he dies a miserable old lonely man.

I think OJ should use his popularity to pay the Goldmans and Browns all the money he owes them.

He doesn't have $33M+ worth of earning power and even if he did it wouldn't be his concern.

Maybe he meant "prison life."

I find it odd that despite being a keeper of the peace for 9 years behind bars most of the media portrays Simpson as a ticking time bomb about to explode. The guys 70 years old.
