Is it true you and Robert Blake are going to search every golf course in the US for your wives killers?

Look, the man just died.   This is a time for mourning and reflection, whether you liked him or not.  It is not a time for juvenile and snide remarks.

... I knew this long before O.J.  But everyone dies, Korn.  We'd be doing nothing BUT mourning and reflecting.  Get over it.    Besides, with me, it's ALWAYS time for juvenile and snide remarks.  (I considered the wisecrack to be about O.J., not about Johnny, but you're free to take offense if you want to.)

He was the absolute worst type of sleezebag that our legal system produces.

I for one will be toasting his death tonight. May he rot in hell.

... he was required to do by the oath he took when he became a lawyer.  That Chris Darden hung the whole prosecution case on that glove was Chris Darden's fuckup.  We have an adversarial legal system.  Other countries have different sorts, and they are not tyrannies (e.g., France).   You may not agree with the kind of system we have, you may not think it the best possible one ... but it ain't Cochran's fault, it was in place before he started practicing law.  Just my two cents' worth.

...That excuse didn't fly then, and it doesn't fly now.

If that's your excuse when the time comes to meet your maker, well, good luck with that.

And sir, you are one. The point was made clearly by the poster before you soiled your shorts responding to the post, any defense lawyer that does not go to the maximum legal limit for his or her client is not a very good lawyer or person. We have judges and juries to decide whether the lawyer has interpreted laws properly and presented a convincing case. But, maybe you would prefer that all legal contests be decided on emotion and nothing else.

I understood his point, sir, and I disagreed with it. And disagreeing with him, and you, does not a jackass make.

Or, in your mind, does it?

Which despicable deeds are you talking about?

Defending Geronimo Pratt (Who on appeal was released after being behind bars wrongfdully for 27 years and won 5 million from the LAPD).

Defending Reginald Denny?

Defending OJ Simpson?

Getting the LAPD to ban killer choke holds?

Defending black and white alike, especially the poor, from police brutality?

Just curious what he specifically did you think was despicable?

TMT

Sometimes trails produce results that we do not like, I saw it before Simpson's murder trial and I have seen it since. Maybe the unbreakable idiot will be balanched and call for the Texas lawyer that got a millionaire off that had allegedly killed two people and nearly killed three others, maiming all of the ones that were not killed for life, to rot in hell.

you'd realize 1) you didn't need to answer, as TMT was making a point and 2) that maybe you need 'unbreakable's' posts explained?
I really do get that we are all allowed to have an opinion, trust me. However, stilltryin25 you need to understand what you're talking about before you chime in. Maybe you could talk to someone that has an education past the 8th grade before you go off?

but he also won cases involving police deception and brutality:


where a man was choked to death by police and they tried to say he hung himself and police breaking down a door of an elderly woman and beating her

I hate crooked, abusive cops so I liked the man.

A great lawyer and he did pro bono work too.

The year America obsessed about OJ and two unfortunate deaths
was the same year that a half million people were killed in Rwanda and nobody cared.

And that is why America obsessed over it.

OJ was a very famous, good looking, and well liked black man who killed two good looking people. If the victims had been good looking blacks, it still would have been just as big. The same racial issues would have been injected into the case because they were directed at the police, not the victims.

The Peterson and Blake cases showed that race does not have to be involved for a murder case to catch national attention. Your perspective is simply an easy copout.
