Despite his posturing, OJ's lawyer knows his defense just took a major hit.

Excite News - 3rd Man Takes Deal in O.J Simpson Case

This situation scares the crap out of me and it should everyone else. We all know OJs history. Now they are offering "deals" to convicts, check their histories, to "get" OJ. This is retaliation justice. This case stinks to high heaven to begin with and is making a mockery of the judicial systme. Someone just happened to have a tape recorder going right when the bozos went in? Then sold their stories less than 24 hours later to a tabloid news source. Come on. So they have the word of convicted felons offered a great deal to "get" OJ and make everyone fell all warm and fuzzy for a murder trial gone bad.

I can't imagine why this situation should scare anyone except criminals. Surely, you can't believe that OJ is being railroaded? He did it. If you hang around with sleazy felons, then you run the risk of being sold out. Not only is it not surprising that these kinds of people planned to cash in from the get go and turned when the going got rough, it's to be expected. There is no honor among thieves.

It may well be retaliation justice in the respect that this crime might not as been as strenuously prosecuted if it were committed by another criminal. You know, one who didn't make a mockery of the judicial system by writing a book confessing to the crime of which he was acquitted. Convicting OJ of any other crimes that he commits is fair enough. He should have quit while he was ahead.

Are you kidding? This is how the justice system works every day. Offer deals to the low-level players in a criminal conspiracy to get them to flip on the high-level players.

Except for THIS crime OJ is not a high level player. This is a case of lets get OJ because no one else has been able to do it. This is a case of a bunch of dumb people trying to act out Cops. No one person is more dangerous in this situation than the others. This is not an organzied crime ring, or a large conspiracy case. This is a whole lot of money going after a low level crime. Ron B and Nicole S are dead and buried. No matter how many times people want him convicted of that crime it just isn't going to happen.

He did the crime, he should do the time. I'm sorry, but pre-mediated armed robbery isn't a low level crime in my opinion. My family is in law enforcement and this isn't an unusual tactic for this type of case; maybe you're making more out of it because it is getting so much attention.
