Here is another one on OJ:

I believe that OJ hired someone to kill Nicole. I totally believe that he was just as guilty as CFCA. However, I do not believe that it would have been possible for him to do it himself. The reason that the jury came back so quickly in OJ was because there was no way they could justify him getting himself the 1800 or so yards, scaling 2 fences and getting back into the house to head out to the airport on time. He had bad knees and was older than he was in his football days. I believe that if he had also been charged with conspiracy, he would have been found guilty. But regardless, when someone cheats, they deserve to lose. It is less about protecting the guilty and more about protecting the innocent. In my 12 years of volunteer work with the IP, I worked 17 cases, 15 of which resulted in the person's conviction being overturned, or at the very least, their sentence being reduced with the possibility of a new trial. Mistakes happen in court, as we saw in CFCA's case, and not always for the good of the defendant.
I don't think that the computer searches should have ever been brought up if they weren't 100% certain of what was being said. If you don't have it without cheating, then you just don't have it. I am not willing to risk my own rights or freedoms, nor the rights of freedoms of my children for anyone. No one. And when things are hinky, they need to be checked out and appropriate punishment should be doled out. Period. Under no circumstances should the state EVER present anything in court that is not 100% truthful.
