OJ is exactly where he needs to be (in prison).
It's been 22 years since my original pre-trial post, but I still stand by the right to a fair trial and "innocent until proven guilty".
OJ deserved to have his day in court just as DYLAN ROOF, the confessed Charleston shooter deserves a fair trial now. Even though Roof posted a manifesto outlining his belief in White supremacy and his hatred towards Blacks, he still deserves his day in court.

Carolyn Duff,
You have stated that all of your polls say the same thing,
namely, that more blacks than white think OJ is innocent.
No matter how many polls you come up with, if they do not
include an undecided category (to which many I know, including
myself would vote), that poll is not valid as it does not allow me to
voice my true opinion. So if I had
to answer, I would answer innocent, SIMPLY BECAUSE
HE IS PRESUMED INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY and
for no other reason. But maybe you don't think that OJ
has that right.
But most everyone (I hope) black or white
wants to know that he gets a fair trial and fair punishment for
the crime and that he is not 'lynched' just because there are
those who want it done, regardless of his guilt or innocence.
But just for arguments sake let us say that blacks are
reluctant to convict other blacks (based solely on an inept
poll). What do you suggest
we do? Eliminate blacks from the jury pool?
So do you also suggest that we eliminate all white juries
(who on the record time and time again show
their bias for whites defendents)
who acquit white civilians and police officers from murdering
blacks, hispanics, chinese and other non-white victims even
when these murders have taken place in full view of witnesses?
And inspite of your belief, it is still happening.
What is your solution?
Do you think that whites should be excluded from juries since
they have to my knowledge NEVER convicted and sentenced a white
man to death for the killing of a black person (Please give me
a court case, as I am very interested in verifying this), even though
white juries have shown that they can give a black man death
for the murder of whites?
I challenge you AGAIN not to muddy the issue and
to answer these questions directly!
Email is preferble.

Georgianna
