What are his chances that he'll be paroled next year? It seems unlikely, but I read a few years back that one of his lengthier convictions from the robbery was overturned. People won't admit it, but I feel that the severity of his current incarceration seems more to do with the murders he was acquitted of than it does with the actual robbery and kidnapping charges. I never thought that any of the Manson family members would ever be paroled, and yet one of them was granted that last spring.
The guy a came across like a complete sociopath in alot of his post murder interviews. I remember a back and forth exchange on Fox News between him and Denise Brown. Holy shit was it ugly. Simpson accused Denise of her undermining his relationship with Nicole because he refused to have sex with her. The guy was a crazy motherfucker.

Edit. Don't want to say too much. Gotta watch it your self. It's worth it.
Fuck, those photos are terrible. I wasn't prepared for the one of Nicole's throat opened up....
That whole scene made me cry.
They show those in the doc? Or did you look them up?
Close up of her head lifted and throat cut wide open, end to end. Also some terrible ones of Ron..
It certainly drove home the point of how terrible they died and how mad someone was.
Everyone admits that his conviction had to do with him gettin off for murder. Mike Tyson is a woman beating rapist, but people still love him. That answers that question.What are his chances that he'll be paroled next year? It seems unlikely, but I read a few years back that one of his lengthier convictions from the robbery was overturned.

So who's probably crazier at this point, OJ Simpson or Mike Tyson? Ten years ago, I used to think that the Mike Tyson brand was unsalvagable, and yet he's managed to show up on a number of talk shows over the years. Is there any chance that he could ever fess up to the crimes? Imagine him doing so in a one on one interview with Diane Sawyer. It would be bigger than the Bruce Jenner story.
Ugh. I've been meaning to watch this, but I want to avoid seeing stuff like this.

I don't think they show the uncensored stuff on the TV version. The web version is uncensored.

The first airing was uncensored, all re-airs will be censored. ESPN put out a press release about it
I heard someone out at dinner the other night, talking to one of the cooks like "this is the single greatest thing ESPN's ever done."
And I thought that sounded a little hyperbolic.
Just finished part 5.
That guy is probably right.
I feel like this documentary didn't really drive home how horrific the Fuhrman tapes were like ACS did. The guy was a real racist, sexist piece of human garbage and the tapes could've definitely made a juror think twice about a guilty verdict.
He was good in the documentary, yeah but he was still terrible.
I've watched 3 out of 5 so far. Brilliant documentary so far. I was 11 when I saw the Bronco chase at my grandparents house on tv. I knew he was a great athlete (I was always a huge sports fan) but didn't know much about him otherwise. No idea at the time how big of an event that was. During the trial I remember my parents watching a show that Geraldo hosted (on CNN I believe) that did a daily recap of the trial. Of course I remember the verdict being read in Jr. High and all the racial divides about the verdict.
It has been pretty interested getting to fill in the details about the trail this year between the FX show and this documentary. Both are highly recommended. Also, for those of you who haven't really seen other 30 for 30 docs, check them out. I've watched a large percent of them and the vast majority are very well done. Excellent series all around
EDIT: I also want to mention how bad I feel for the Goldman's in this whole ordeal. Ron is basically a footnote in one of the biggest events in recent history. Having to see their son's brutal murder play out constantly while Ron Goldman is basically ignored has to be heart wrenching, especially knowing that his murderer was out free for many years.
Yep:
Their son was an afterthought
They got caught-up in an entire race/LAPD perfect storm that had nothing to do with them
The guy who killed their son got off free
Even after they get a civil victory, OJ hides most of his money and valuables
The killer of their son writes a book detailing how "he would have" killed their son
The whole thing is gross
"That (Kardashian) show won't last 2 weeks!"
The FX series depiction of OJ as a naïve, confused, meek near-simpleton was absurd just months ago and looks far worse this week.
So did OJ actually commit murder?

Wanted so badly to power through the 5th part of the series last night, but forced myself to turn off the TV instead. I don't know that the Brown and Goldman families were aware of one of the juror's (that we know of) justification for a not guilty verdict prior to this series, but if I was family to either of the victims I would have had smoke shooting out of my ears. Congratulations on letting a man who damn near decapitated the mother of their children (that image will stay with me for a long time) walk free because you felt it was justified based on centuries of injustice. She still obviously gives no fucks to this day.
