Should OJ Simpson be paroled?

[Rocko]

lets be clear, there's no shadow of a doubt in my mind that he's a murder. Having said I don't think it's right that he be punished by our justice system for that when he was already cleared in court of the muders. As much as he deserves to be in prision the rest of his life I don't want the integrity of the system compromised. I vote yes.

 

[rightwinger]

Based on the criterion for receiving parole.....probably

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

Nope.

 

[Billy_Kinetta]

He was not sentenced for murder, which he got away with. His NFL pension will bring him millions which the families of his victims cannot touch.

There's no good reason to parole him. Let him finish the sentence.

The parole board is supposed to ignore his celebrity and evaluate parole based on his behavior in prison and similar cases that were up for parole

 

[Meathead]

He should be executed.

Then he should be happy I'm not on the parole board.

Yes. He's just misunderstood.

Why? So he can go back to playing golf to find Ron & Nichole's killer? The killer was on the golf course every time he played and he still couldn't catch him.

STFU.

OJ justly deserves life in prison where he can rot.

 

[rightwinger]

OJ brutally killed two people and got away with it

He was convicted of roughing up some guy over stealing his sports memorabilia

As much as we would like to punish him for the first, he was only convicted on the second

How many more years is his sentence and how much time has he served so far?

God bless you always!!!

P.S. I've heard it said that another person that could be paroled soon is the kid who killed a whole bunch of people in the Washington D.C. area back in 2002: John Lee Malvo.

Not an iota of doubt in my mind that he killed Nicole and Ron, but a brain-dead jury let him walk, and nothing can be done about that, unfortunately.

He was convicted of other crimes and sentenced to, I think, 9 to thirty-something years, meaning earliest parole possible after 9 or anytime thereafter up until the end of the sentence. From what I've read, his parole eligibility will be based on how he's acted while incarcerated regarding the various prison rules he, like all others, is supposed to abide by, and all reports are that he's been a model prisoner with zero rules infractions so thus likely assured of being paroled at this time.

I don't like it but the rules are the rules and this sentence has nothing to do with the fact that he was lucky as hell to walk from his double murder trial. Them's the breaks.

 

[strollingbones]

he was given 33 years....he has served 9 years ....which is a third...he will be paroled if the board is fair...he has been a model prisoner ....he was convinced of armed robbery not murder....

we are not talking justice we are discussing parole hearings.....

Why can't the victims' families get his NFL pension?

 

[strollingbones]

board is 7 members...4 have to vote for parole....

perhaps you cant garnish pensions? good question

My understanding is Simpson will collect his pension all his life, in prison and out, and, no, the Goldmans can't have it. I believe the court ruled the pension was off limits to the award given them in the civil suit.

 

[strollingbones]

the only mistake oj made...was killing the son of fred goldman......mr goldman will hound oj to the end of his days....

That's too bad.

I guess he didn't get away scot free. Most people believe he is a murderer and he did go to prison for some years, but he didn't really pay his debt for those murders, either.

there is no justice for the wealthy.....it has been proven again and again
