Why would a successful football star throw his life away? OJ Simpson, who previously and still continually accused of murdering Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman, was an American
Football Star Player, winning the Heisman Trophy in 1968. Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman were both murdered outside of Nicole’s condo, and many believe it was OJ, but was it really? In the controversial court case of OJ Simpson, the verdict correctly appointed him innocent and acquitted him of the murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman because his arthritis would have made it very difficult to commit murder, evidence proved him innocent, and his son had issues with knifes and continues to experience this.
OJ Simpson, known to have arthritis and many other sports injuries, could not have preformed the murders. He had arthritis, and took medications to help control his pain. As said, “Mr. Simpson has arthritis…” (Chris Darden). Arthritis causes joint pain in hands and knees. Even on pain medications, over doing things can still cause pain and swelling and excessively stabbing two people would be over doing it. Since he played football, he also has sports injuries which would have made it difficult. As a doctor, Bennet Omalu, a doctor who specializes in head trauma and inspired the movie “Concussion”, believes that OJ is still being affected by the damage he faced in his football career (Concussion.) The brain damage that was studied had signs of violent tendencies and mood swings much like OJ has been know for in the past, which indicates that he is mentally ill. But he was never diagnosed and did not fit many of the other De Vos 2 signs of the condition. Ron Goldman fought with the murderer. Ray Wood explains, He fought for about fifteen minutes and his hands were all bruised and and shoes were scratched from kicking (Ray Wood). The day after the murders, OJ’s body was checked for injuries and he had nothing except a cut on his finger, which did not appear until that day. The cut did not match up with anything on the gloves and with the fight that happened, he should have been bruised. With his injuries, murdering two people would have been very difficult and unlikely. Many pieces of evidence that had appointed at OJ proved his innocence. One of the biggest pieces of evidence they thought they had against OJ was a bloody glove found at the crime scene. A famous quote from the trials, “If the glove doesn’t fit, you must acquit!” (Johnnie Cochran.) The glove did not fit. He has very large hands and they were simply too small. Mark Fuhrman, who was a witness against OJ, used racial slurs in court. He used the n-bomb quite often and lead the jury to believe he could have planted some evidence himself due to his hatred for blacks (Jason Mc Donald.) The use of the n word is not …show more content…
He can turn very violent as he had been in a violent fight with his former girlfriend and has cut her hair off with knifes before. Jason had not been questioned during the trail, but he was looked at to see where he claimed he was at.. His alibi for the night had been the restaurant he had a job at but the time clock and punch out looked odd and irregular (Killer). Therefore it shows that it could have been changed and set straight. He should have been interviewed and seen as a suspect throughout the case. There is substantial reasons as to why Jason is the murder instead of OJ.
