All I know is that they are saying on the news that he could get life. If the sentence is anything more than a few years then it seems to me that it simply isn't fair (unless someone has data showing that similar crimes by non-OJs generally result in long sentences).

Despite him getting away with murder (and I do believe he committed those murders) there is no make-up call. Incorrect acquittals is a risk of the system and I like the system well enough to accept that.
The system needs to be fixed.

One day after the aquital, he could have had a press conference and admitted guilt, shown home movies, etc., and nobody could have done a thing.
