OJ Back In The News Parole Violation Of Too Many Brews?


If the glove doesn’t fit
You have to acquit
Cochrane’s mantra unlocked his jail cell
The Juice walked free to avoid a prison hell
In the same way with Buffalo or earlier with SC
Impossible to catch him, slow him down or stop him from running free
Many predicted that a person who had gotten away with his heinous crime
That feeling he could beat any rap a return to prison was just a matter of time
They were right as he and some men with plenty of threatening brawn
Broke into a collector’s hotel room with guns cocked and drawn
To rob a collector of sports memorabilia for sale on display
Then grabbing the loot they fled quickly away
Caught, tried and convicted  of 10 counts of robbery with a sentence of 9 to 33 years
Finally justice for Nicole and the Juice from the public eye would disappear
After 9 years OJ sought parole from the Nevada Parole Board
Nine years of good conduct, a model prisoner seeking parole as a just reward
Just like the days of student body left with tacklers’ attempts arrested
The Board missed a 1995 misdemeanor assault on Nicole that was pled not contested
Dodging the proverbial stay in prison  bullet, the Juice once again to freely run
Subject to conditions like no illegal drugs and excessive alcohol to shun
In just 39 days following his release from prison he was banned from a Vegas bar
For being disruptive and having carried his alcoholic consumption too far
We never would have heard of the disorder and ban
Had OJ’s lawyer not made upon the hotel a $100 million demand
Will be interesting to see how this plays out and whether the Parole Board will his freedom retract
If the hotel staff acted properly because they were dealing with a drunk, the Juice may still the ability to control anger lack
