Dan Gould Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 13 years too late, but its still nice to know. Five years to parole eligibility sucks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalupa Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 15+ years and he has to serve at least 6 years before he becomes eligible for parole. No bail while he appeals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 15+ years and he has to serve at least 6 years before he becomes eligible for parole. No bail while he appeals. Actually CNN says 9 years before eligibility. (I posted when the judge finished instead of getting the recap, and it was hard to follow what she had said ...)

Larry Kart Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 I merged this thread with the other OJ thread because people were posting on both today. (This per a suggestion.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.D. Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I still haven't seen a definitive statement of OJ's minimum assured sentence. A consensus of 9 years had seemingly developed, but I just saw Yahoo! News come out with 15. I watched the sentencing live, and the judge's delivery was very confusing, making it highly challenging to calculate the minimum. I didn't take notes, and had no clue.

Christiern Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I don't know why the info is so vague, but the most common term I hear is 9 to 33 years with parole possibility in 6. They should throw away the key and let him rot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggie87 Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 It is confusing. From Yahoo's article: "Glass, a no-nonsense judge known for tough sentences, imposed such a complex series of consecutive and concurrent sentences that even many lawyers watching the case were confused as to how much time Simpson got." Because of parole, I suspect he'll be out in 9 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christiern Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Aggie87: "Because of parole, I suspect he'll be out in 9 years." Good, then he can continue his exhaustive search for the real killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papsrus Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Football players generally have had shorter than average lifespans, I believe. He's 61 now. Nine years takes him to 70. The less-than optimal living conditions in prison will likely have a further negative effect on his lifespan. He very well may spend the rest of his days in prison.

chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 why u guys hatin' so much on juice: my philo. is that oj gets 100 free arrests, but on his 101st, well the 01 just is a tad too many...article II of the Constitution states: Any individual involved in the production of more than Two (2) "Naked Gun" movies, is excempt for their first a hundred crimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjazz Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 What I think is a shame, is that after he lucked out with the acquittal. He could have easily made $33 million selling shit or doing promotion for the Goldmans. He would have been able to be lovalble pre-OJ that everybody knew. Instead, he choose to be MAD OJ.

T.D. Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 There was a funny story on Yahoo! News today (I didn't read it, just the headline) to the effect that OJ could've gotten less time by copping a plea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
