It's too bad he's sitting in prison


...thinking there's a chance he'll get out soon.

I'm not saying whether the chance is good or not, it would be better if got the full sentence and knew it.

But then...having his hopes dashed at future parole hearings might good too.

He shouldn't be in prison at all. They took his stuff and he was only trying to get it back. It was a setup. Nobody cares what they did because it's OJ. I left another message the same as this but it was deleted. I wonder why. I didn't say anything bad.

He may get out in 2017 if he's lucky. I personally think he should stay in jail though.

Because it's OJ. Anyone else would be out by now.

Considering that he got away with double murder because he's OJ Simpson I guess all is well.

For the sake of any future victims let's hope he stays in prison.

Exactly. Robert Blake got acquitted cause he was white and never was harassed like when OJ was acquitted.

No one to blame but himself. He can't keep himself out of trouble. Before the murders the cops were willing to overlook a lot of things for him because of his friends in the department and his hero status.

OJ was a huge superstar, so he drew a lot of attention. Not only a huge superstar, but a beloved superstar who had a long running public image of being a very nice person....hence, he drew a lot of attention.

Robert Blake was a washed up old has-been that nobody had given a second thought to for years. Imagine this....if the "dude, you're getting a Dell" guy from the commercials had the same thing happen. It would warrant a news story, but that is about all and people would quickly forget. That is about how well known and regarded Robert Blake was at the time....he was a virtual non-entity, and not a superstar like OJ.
