OJ Simpson has thankfully kicked the bucket.

For anyone thinks that he’s innocent, listen to the phone call that the LAPD made with him during the Bronco chase. It’s the closest he ever got to just confessing the murder out loud.

I hope Fred Goldman is feeling better, knowing that this wife-beating trash has stopped breathing and been sent to a painful eternity.

Doesn't matter if he was innocent. The police fucked it up so hard that even a guilty party would, should, and very possibly did get off Scott free.

Hell they fucked it up so bad that OJ won despite the lawyer OJ had who to this day is proving he is a spectacular idiot.

If you are still arguing about him being innocent. Still demanding he is guilty. Still being mad about it. You are not only very probably racist you also just do not understand some of the basics about how just about any legal system works.

Sometimes it is right for a court to let someone off regardless of guilt. It happened. It was decades ago get over it and your obviously racist obsession with it.

It's also extremely weird and disgusting to be thrilled by the death of some guy who, yes, killed his ex in a violent rage decades ago, but has been mostly not murdering people for many decades.

Like he obviously wasn't a current danger to anyone when he died in 2024 so what the fuck are you crowing about?

Most murders are committed by people with poor impulse control in a violent rage, and that chronic wife beater finally escalated is certainly no reason to celebrate him, but his death decades later is going to make you crow for joy? Are you going to celebrate Obama's death? Guy personally murdered several orders of magnitude more people then OJ.

Just seems beyond twisted how hyped people get over every time an obviously mentally unwell person who personally stabs someone dies as compared to all the billions of other deaths that are totally cool beause they are less visceral. Maybe my autism is showing.

Also, OJ only mostly got away with it. After being acquitted in a criminal court he was later successfully sued for the murders, and the victims received a nonzero fraction of the settlement demanded. The fact they didn't receive the whole sum reflects more on the US facilitating the non-payment of compensatory and punitive damages than it does on OJ, a known murderer guilty of worse than a little financial fraud, personally.

(That, or it reflects that people weren't mad keen on there being a loophole to charge someone for the same crime twice.)

Not really a loophole. If someone is convicted of a crime that includes jail time (like robbing a bank) they may also have civil penalties (like restitution). The bank probably doesn't care how many years someone stays behind bars but does care about getting the money back.

These can be handled together, but a complicated explanation of financial injuries could complicate a prosecution and there’s no guarantee that a DA will do so.

Often civil cases will include more people - while only one person might go to jail for a crime a number of people might be financially liable for an incident including insurers.

Restitution in the US law system is payments made to the victim of a crime after a guilty plea. Not a separate civil lawsuit.

"Wrongful Death" the thing OJ was actually sued for, is a completely separate claim that is not restitution.
