The Juice is out of juice 🤷 What a waste of our collective time and attention that piece of shit was.

Wish Norm were still around for this. :(

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

What a terrible headline.
Fixed it: Murderer whose trial riveted the nation.

Person who was charged and put on trial for murder died. It's a legal term. Journalists can get sued for defamation for blatantly calling someone who is not convicted a rapist or murderer. You can safely call OJ an armed robber and kidnapper though.
That's why the talking heads on tv tend to dance around the terminology and say "allegedly" and "accused of"

Was found innocent

Not guilty is not the same as innocent.

Hahahaha. I hope he’s loving Hell.

Get fucked OJ. Cancer was too good for you.
-
Lol? What did he do to deserve dying from cancer?
-
Spare me the virtue signaling pseudo higher than thou bullshit. OJ is a killer and profited off of it. He deserves worse.

His hell is trying on gloves that don't fit for eternity

I really hope he donated his brain to science. The man went from world famous to villain in a single car chase. It's rare that people fall from grace so far, so quickly. I am not excusing his heinous acts, but I will say it would make a lot more sense, in my mind, if this man's anger and impulsivity was predicated on a TBI.

Good.
-
World news, huh?
-
Well he was world famous, I'm not from the US myself but most genX and older (~40+) knew about him and his trial at least superficially

Now he can rest knowing his wife's killer is dead.
He was proven innocent in court
He was acquitted, meaning it couldn't be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that he was guilty.
He was proven liable in the civil trial. The additional evidence uncovered by the lawyers in that case was damning. Civil trials typically don’t require a unanimous verdict, but it was unanimous in this case.
