Loved watching him play when I was a kid. All things aside that occurred later in his life, I mourn his passing as a great athlete.

Unfortunately no acquittal due to a ridiculous circus trial will dispel my view of him as a wife beater and murderer.

Maybe God will tell him who the “real” killer was.

I watched the trial back in the day, as it aired day by day. It felt like the memory of those who lost their lives was over shadowed by what was going on the court room. I did not think much of judge, Lance Allan Ito, who at times seemed caught up in the attention associated with the case, all because a famous person was involved.

After the trial, i do not recall there being any news on what the police were going to do to attempt to catch the killer. It does not much working out as to why.

I also remember when the trial was on and watching it-people say that was one of the starts of reality TV.

I do agree I do not recall after the trial if there was even any talk of trying to find the real killer.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Yeah, sorry, I don't feel bad that a murderer is gone.
