One of the more famous running backs has passed yesterday
With speed and agility from onrushing tacklers dodged away
Becoming the first player in NFL to rush for 2000 yards plus
in only 14 games to play
But after retirement from the game his greatest escape was the
acquittal that Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman he did not slay
While with the jury glued to his efforts that despite his groans
failed
Could not get his hand into the glove as Cochran the D.A.’s
case derailed
“Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury if the glove does not fit
Then you must acquit”
Which is what the jury did
All the DNA evidence linking him to the death reasonable
doubt would quickly rid
The jury of 8 blacks,
2 Hispanics, 1 half-Caucasian, half Native American, and 1 Caucasian female believed
the LAPD planted the DNA
Unknown at the time, 2 weeks before taking the stand OJ
stopped taking his arthritis meds that
the swelling in his hands would allay
The members of The
View
Whose observations are too often made without a clue
This time the co-hosts got it right
Not convicted for two murders was a major slight
While Jenner in the briefest of all attacks-“Good Riddance”
Hoping the Goldmans’ with their massive wrongful death judgment
collect more than a pittance
