There's an old saying: "You don't get justice in a court of law, you get law in a court of law".



It seems like the judge and jury in Nevada tried to hand out justice for the 1994 murders by overcharging and over sentencing OJ, since the law for similar offences would be much more lenient. Now, will the parole board go by the law, or rather usual parole standards, or try to continue to hand out justice for 1994???


I lived in Las Vegas when this trial occurred. If it wasn't for the armed robbery portion of the crime he would probably would have gotten off very lightly. I, and others, believe the judge took him to the wall because of the murder of his ex-wife.
