Sounds like he's still maintaining what he did was not wrong. I thought the parole board is not there to argue guilt, but to admit that he was sorry and that he was wrong.

What the board decides to do with it, is up to them.

(52,196 posts)the parole board has no legal basis on which to expect him to show remorse for anything other than the later charges of which he was found guilty (and i suppose, any in-prison misbehavior).

(3,194 posts)He is going on and on about how his Vegas armed robbery was not wrong, since it was his stuff....blah, blah, blah.

I never gave a shit about OJ but I'm really tired of folks who are still dealing with the 1995 trial.

(3,194 posts)He had the right to his stuff. He didn't have to go in with thugs and guns to take it back. There were other courses of action far more legal.

(3,194 posts)He was convicted of Armed Robbery. Doesn't matter if he was the one with the gun, or one of the guys that came with him.

(34,062 posts)If you engage in criminal activity with others, you can typically be convicted of the worst crime committed as part of that collective activity. It's called accomplice liabilty.
FWIW, there have been people executed for murder who weren't the actual killers - while the actual killers cut a deal and received a lesser sentence. (And those people weren't convicted because of who they were - they were convicted because that's the way accomplice liablity works.)

(1,788 posts)He said he's led a conflict-free life. Tell that to his wife Nicole, who made 9 separate calls to 911 when Simpson beat and threatened to kill her. One incident put her in the hospital. Oh, that's right, we can't tell her, she's dead. Simpson got no jail time for that, just community service and probation. He's a monster.
