7. Suicide?
Some sources say that OJ Simpson had a few suicidal thoughts after the murders, and he even recorded some tapes. In one of them, he recorded himself while saying that he was thinking of killing himself. That happened before he decided to take off in his white SUV.
Some of the tapes were shared with journalists, and they discovered that the former athlete stated that he wanted to be remembered as “The Juice.” (That was a nickname he received at the beginning of his career, due to the fact that he was very fast, and his initials, OJ, were also the initials of orange juice.) He also stated that he wants to be known as the good guy, as a man who is passionate about sports and who is good at them.
Moreover, OJ Simpson also mentioned that he has no idea how he ended up in such a negative place. He mentioned that he loved everyone and that he wanted his children to stay out of trouble and be left in peace.

Guilty as sin
wheres the murder weapon? Did you see him at the crime scene?
As per Cochran: “If the glove doesn’t fit, you have to acquit. He was not found not guilty, he was acquitted which means there was not enough evidence to bring him to trial in the first place.
That was the stupidest claim made as well as heard and not disputed by the prosecution and anyone else within the courtroom at that time. I am a retired architect now but grew up delivering newspapers in the City of Chicago for many years in the late1960’s and early 1970’s. Winter in Chicago is cold, wet and snowy so gloves were a must. Sometimes, I had leather gloves and they would get wet. As a result, they would shrink as they dried out and did not fit the same. Wet leather has been used to tie things together, which then tightens up as the leather dries out…..”shrinkage”. Moisture, whether it is water or blood would have the same effect. Noone ever mentioned this fact in the trial and it is astounding to think that it could be rationally disputed by an uneducated,
at the time, “newpaper boy”! As such, “guilty”.
Agree 100% Guilty
Absolutely he was guilty. No doubt it’s too late now.
Yes, he did it!! A jealous hateful crime committed by the husband. He over killed both of them in the most awful manner a crime of passion couldn’t been painted any clearer. But each individual in that murder trail that play a part of proving this monster innocent had their day of judgment in the worst way.
I’ve never had any doubt. Ever! He did it!
There’s no question he did it.
I think he was guilty, but not beyond any doubt. Maybe not even beyond a reasonable doubt. Explanations for the blood evidence are dubious. Esp. that police planted evidence, of which there’s no direct evidence.
The guy was guilty as sin. There was a mountain of evidence against him, people who don’t want to see it that way are in denial. I followed the case live as it happened and reviewed it countless times, I always get to the same conclusion”Guilty”without any minuscule doubt.
Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows OJ killed his wife and Goldman
I believe honestly fir a long time thst he was innocent. It was me and my father in law who thought that OJ would be caoablf of such a horrible crime..Peoole told me I qas crazy but I saw on TV when he was acquitted , he didn’t look like a man who was relieved and gratdful he was found not guilty.The look on his face was onf of z man who got away with murder vecause he an excellent law team.No other susoects were picked up by the poluce.The years later OJ breaks into some guy’ s house and commits armed robbery.Case closed
OJ didn’t do it, alone. He was there. I think it was his son did it, not OJ.
Glen,
When OJ played for the Buffalo Bills, I was his biggest fan, as at the time I klived 75 miles fro Rich Stadium, and was able to see OJ play, many times. I want ton believe OJ was innocent, but now have reservations, and now think he was the killer of both Nicole and Ron Gloldman. My wife and I were in Lake Tahoe, and happened to stop by a sports memorability store displaying an autographed OJ helmet. I asked the sore owner “do you really think you can sell anything OJ has autographed? His answer was, I don’t just think I know I will sell whatever OJ signed items I can get. He went on and said “you must be one of those guys, who believe OJ was guilty and then added OJ killed no one,,, but his son did! When asked how he knew OJ’s son was the killer, he said I know OJ personally, and have visited him in jail, where he said his son. had killed both Nicole and Ron, due to the poor way she had treated OJ. I asked him if he really believed OJ was not the kjlller, hen answered I have known OJ since the first time he touched a football, and never once lied, so yes I do believe him saying he s not who killed anyone, the police need to take, another look to find the killer of the two people Ihave been falsely accused and arrested for.

Why would a person climb over their back fence to enter their home!!!
Because the limousine was there to take him to the airport. He didn’t want the driver to see him. He absolutely did it.
So as not to be seen by people in the neighborhood who knew him.
It was obvious that He was Guilty, but They didn’t want to convict him because of the Rodney King Riots the year before. They were afraid they would have them again if they convicted O. J.
I kept up with trial and believed he was guilty. I still believe he was guilty, but he is dead now so this is a moot point
OJ actually admitted he did both murderers once to his lawyer in earshot of a C.O. & upon the not guilty finding, knowing he couldn’t be tried twice criminally, he admitted it at a party he threw for the jurors. Bragging about it.
You would think these jurors with little to nothing in common with OJ would have acted astonished, however, OJ showered all of them with money and expensive gifts and friendship with a once famous athlete/actor.
It’s a form of The Stockholm Syndrome that kicked in and the jurors kept siding with OJ despite knowing first hand he was guilty. OJ painted a picture of his needing to kill them lest he be killed which was untrue.
OJ’s guilt manifested in his PTSD/Anxiety of a guilty conscious. He started committing all manners of crimes OUI, B&E night-time to steal his trophies back, drunk & disorderly behavior and more.
OJ was in & out of lockups and prisons ever since, looking disheveled.
This is common behavior for a guilty man freed on a technicality.
As a member of the law enforcement community I could go on about evidence proving his guilt but one thing stands out.
Police Detective Mark Furhman is a terrible, Potential Neo-Nazi bigot. He is on record stating that he believes men of color to be inferior, animals as he put it.
For the system to work OJ had to go free criminally because of the prejudices of the LAPD which were disgraceful.
But Karma is real and O.J has already been becoming mentally unstable, unhappy, fearful and maladjusted.
No one here gets out alive, and what comes around, goes around.
Did you just make up a bunch of random things and use them to support a judgemental and flawed opinion on his guilt without using any actual evidence. I’m not even saying that he did it or didn’t do it, but a lot of the statements you made seem to be completely fabricated or unsupported opinions.
I would want to see sources on the information about the jury and also being overheard admitting. Also for every piece of information you mentioned I have heard something equally impactful related to his innocence from the exclusion of important findings that were kept from being talked about like there being no blood in the vehicle when inventory wa done but then later all this blood was there, the glove found by who you agree was a very biased and corrupt man.. the same man who entered the crime scene for some reason and was repeatedly told he couldn’t be where he was until they photographed the scene and cataloged evidence. Then they find more evidence right where he was standing even though nobody saw it moments earlier before he had entered.. without any reason to have entered that area..
After how many times we have seen video evidence of law enforcement planting evidence why wouldn’t it be conceivable that this specific officer with all his issues may have planted evidence to frame OJ. As far as OJ’s later behavior I can only say that many of his issues are far more of a fit with the exact opposite of what you claim. Somebody innocent, but wrongly convicted or even just innocent and falsely believed by most of society to be guilty would be likely to have all these characteristics and end up with those
kind of issues.
The self-fulling prophecy of deviance is one way I’ve seen it explained. Plus the added stress you would carry living out life in a world where nobody believed you would be overwhelming. Guilty people who got away with their crimes often don’t care what people think because they escaped the consequences and anything they do deal with was deserved and in some way they know they got lucky. Being innocent and facing all the consequences and judgement for crimes you didn’t commit can ruin a person and lead to tons of issues. One thing we can agree on is Mark F ruining any chance for us to learn the truth. At best his flaws and issues tained the case at the trial level at worst his planting of evidence and gross abuse of his position to frame somebody of the crime. Regardless of which of those scenarios was more accurate one thing stands true in either case, it’s easy to say he is a terrible person.
I do not know if he was guilty or not but bad things happen when people get involved in mixed races. That is what happened at University of Utah. Then they sue the police and schools for their own dumbness.
agree
What a racist you are sir…what does mixing of the races have to do with anything? You my man are a shitty excuse for a man or even human. Go live in a cave somewhere because rases have been mixing for centuries. Dumb Ass
Hes did it everybody knows it but his slick talking lawyers got him off scott free.
I have a theory about the glove, You put blood on a leather glove and it will shrink the leather. I was a meat cutter for 40 years, if I cut my finger and had it wrapped to try and play golf the bandage would come loose and get blood on the glove, I could not get the glove on again as the fingers would shrink and I would have to throw the glove away. Yes I finally learned not to play golf if I had cut a finger. I have said this since O J got off with murder. Pays to have a smart lawyer!!
He was guilty no matter what some people think. The state made too many mistakes at this trial. Two murders 1 trial for each. He gets off the first time you still have another person to try him on. Mark Ferman do your homework before you put somebody on the witness stand. Marcia Clark thought she had this case won before the trail. Not so not when you are dealing with a celebrity and a former NFL player. She made to dang many mistakes and he walked he will answer for his crimes someday and this judge may have another ruling. The family of these two people who were taken to soon are whom we should be thinking of. Not OJ Simpson we all reap what we sow in the end so will he.
All of you need to get over it that’s why we have a court, you all should respect the system he was found not guilty. Period.
Guilty!! A lot of evidence that was overlooked. Crime of the century! There was no justice for Nicole and her friend. Shocking that OJ got away with these two horrific murders
Honestly I can’t judge anyone but since he made the limo driver wait and was all cleaned up and also the evidence point’s to him. Plus before the police could get to him he sped off in the bronco. THE GUILTY NEVER RUN. Also he paid off the juniors for a not guilty verdict. Which isn’t right.
I Believe He was not guilty. I would check out the guy from the restaurant!!!! Easy place to hide a knife. Was upset that Nicole wasn’t his friend and that the night she died Goldman was suppose to hang with him but decided he needed to see Nicole (glasses I Think) So his feeling probably got hurt for being stood up. On trial his eyes were blinking a mile a minute. That I think is a sign of someone hiding info. He was never questioned about being at the house that night!!! Never believed OJ was guilty!!!
Guilty! Guilty! Guilty! And everyone knew he was! Nobody liked him and actually intensely disliked him. He got away with murder. Plain and simple. The American people were completely disgusted and insensed!!

He got by with murder and his attorney pulled every trick he could to win the case, if he had been convicted there would have been so much racial problems i Los Angeles that was part of the reason he was not convicted.
OJ got away with murdering 2 human beings. Johnny Cochran has to live with that. Thankfully OJ is burning in Hell right now.
OJ was covering up for his son. A chef who had a set of knives he carried all the time. He was abusive to his girlfriends. Had anger issues, mostly from not getting his way. He was pissed off that Nicole come to his restaurant after the recital. They didn’t show up and it royally pissed him off. Snapped… The blood drops at the scene? Only a 80-85 percent match to OJ, indicating a family member. The utter racism that permeated this case was and still is, unbelievable. OJ was lynched. Black man accused of killing a white woman. History is filled with such examples. Even today (2025), black men are being released factually innocent, from murder to rape.
The six and eleven o’clock news by the time those broadcasts came on they were 180 degrees different from the trial testimony. Jason did it, OJ covered for him.
Well leather shrinks when it gets wet then he had gloves on so he wouldn’t contaminate the evidence,so of course the glove wasn’t going to fit. GUILTY all day long.
It should never have been televised.
The police stopped looking for “the real killer” as soon as OJ was arrested.
Everyone who wrote that he was guilty was wrong. Don’t you remember Johnny Cochran said in front of the jury. . . “if the glove doesn’t fit, you have to acquit”? Acquittal means there was not enough evidence to bring suit in the first place. He was acquitted not found not guilty.
hundred percent guilty, what and evil twisted fella he is he should have got the death penalty, that poor woman and those kids god knows what hell she was going through, sure we could read about the things but it’s hundred percent worse i’m guessing actually living through that hell
100 💯 guilty. Watch BUGLIOSI VS OJ court room retrial and you will have no doubt. Oj was a drug crazed, insane with jealously, and butchered 2 innocent people. Thank God he’s off the earth. Got away with a double murder because of a racist jury.
GUILTY 100% ! My Sister worked at a casino with a former teammate of OJ’s. He even said OJ had a mean temper and yes he did murder them. He was very capable of it!
But OJ had to face the pearly gates on whether he was let in or sent to another direction!
While I do believe without a doubt OJ brutally murdered his wife Nicole and Ron Goldman and got away with it here on earth…NOBODY escapes the Judgement seat of Christ. In the end Justice comes for all. ⚖
100 % Guilty !!!
He was guilty, if not, who than would kill both and for what reason. Of course he was guilty, and he is now paying for it at a higher authority..
He is guilty.
1. If he is not guilty, then this is a rage induced murder that would have been repeated – a serial killer. No follow-up murders occurred.
2. Who benefits from Nicole’s death? OJ. He was a narcissistic abuser, and they frequently murder a parter who leaves. This is a well-documented pattern of behavior.
3. His behavior right after the murder is telling, and that arrogant book, “If I Did It”…come on!
If Ron Golden was never in O.J’s Ford Bronco how did his blood get into it? He physically abused Nicole for years and she divorced him as a result. A Sociopath has no ability to have empathy for anyone, they want to control people and he wanted to control Nicole and his jealousy drove him to kill her.
Definitely GUILTY
Watched the entire trial, not guilty.
Guity as sin.
It’s been said, she had a bad cocaine addiction and owed mobsters money and they came to collect. Most believe OJ knew who did it but wouldn’t tell for fear that the same would happen to him…this I believe and makes more sense than the narrative 🙄
He was guilty. Many saw footage when it originally happened. tv. showed a lot of O.J. that wasn’t admisable during the trial. O.J. had absolute guilt in his eyes at the time he was apprehended. He threatened her many times and broke in her door previous to her death. Inmates said he admitted he did it, when he was in prison years later on a lesser charge. The guilt he showed in his eyes, you don’t forget that.
Truly believe OJ was NOT guilty of committing the murder of his exwife and her boyfriend. But I do believe he knew 2ho did kill them. Evidently the drug dealers showed them they were not playing around with them when it came to them not paying their outstanding bill for the drugs they were using and NOT paying for. The style in which the murders were committed also showed great evidence towards drug corteals (heads almost being decapitated). Actually OJ was a gentlemen, because he probably knew who these drug dealers were but kept Nicoles and Rons drug habits and outstanding drug bills out of this case in honor of them and for the safety of his choldren and his life. It just goes to show how the country can side with you when you are winning for it, and throw you away when they are finish with you. TRUTH OR NOT COLOR ALWAYS MATTER HERE!!!
He was guilty. It shows how the court system can be manipulated.
Since the cops couldn’t “frame “ OJ unless they knew exactly where he was at the time of the crime, it would have been impossible for him to be framed. As far as his location at the time of the crime, the cops had no clue. He could have been around 200 people for all they knew. He could have been out of the country. This is so obvious that you would’ve thought that the prosecution would have emphasized it but they never even mentioned it. Even the idiots on the jury might have considered it
Of course he did it.. Guilty as sin!!!!
Not guilty, always thought it was drugs and a money debt. Doesn’t excuse his prior abusive behavior. If she was so afraid of his jealous rage’s. Why would she be so blatant about dating & not establish distance from him?
He’s covering for his son, Jason…
Everything points to his son doing the murders.
Guilty beyond any doubt. He was an ego driven maniac. Hell opened its door to welcome him.
cry racism say the lawyers were at fault or the judge allowed to much leeway or the police planted evidence even though that was just smoke i was astay at home dad at the time watched it all and every thing fit together perfectly bravo lapd besides you dont try to run if you are innocent so ya guilty as hell
Everyone with any intelligence knows that this was a racial verdict. He was as guilty as can be, but the LA police botched so much evidence it was a disgrace. The judge was also a farce letting Cochrane swing the verdict in his favor with that preposterous glove exhibition. Overall, a sad miscarriage of justice, now OJ is gone and will never know.
Come on, guilty
The prosecution lost the case right there and then when they had O.J. try to put on that black glove! They should have not done that. The defense lawyers made Marcia Clark into chopped meat! O.J. had the best lawyers money could buy. Sadly, Clark’s overwhelming amount of DNA evidence was overlooked. This Trial of The Century’ just goes to show the public that if you have enough money and fame, you can buy your way out of justice.
If O.J DID NOT DO IT, THEN WHO? A CAR CHASE WHY. DREAM TEAM LAWYERS MONEY WILL
GET YOU FREE LA POLICE DEP MISTAKES IN INVESTIGATION, MARCIA CLARK HER TEAM. The PLACED WHERE I WORKED TEVEVISED THE JURY RESULTS IN THE BREAK ROOM IT HAD LOTS OF BLACK PEOPLE THERE WHEN THE VERDICT CAME OUT THERE WAS VERY LOUD CHEERING. THE BLACK COMUNITY WAS WITH O.J 100 % EVEN THOUGH HE KILLED TWO PEOPLE. The IDEA TO SHOW THE GLOVES THAT HAD SCHRUNK DID ANYTHING GO RIGHT HERE .
O.J. didn’t do it . There’s no way he butchered those two people , got in his car and police had to use microscope to look for blood. No way
His son did it.
