'O.J. Is Innocent And I Can Prove It': In New Book, P.I. William Dear Claims O.J. Simpson's Son Was

[Generic Other]

It's often said that the only certainties in life are death and taxes. But you can add "rehashing of the O.J. Simpson case" to that list -- at least for the last 18 years

So it should come as no surprise that a new book has been published about the 1994 murders of Simpson's ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman.

In 1995, a California jury acquitted O.J. Simpson of the killings. A civil lawsuit, later filed by the victims' families, resulted in a 1997 judgment finding Simpson liable for the deaths and ordering him to pay $33.5 million in damages.

The latest installment in the Simpson library is not another "If I Did It," in which the former gridiron great speculated on how he might have killed his former wife. Instead, the new book points the finger of guilt away from Simpson and lays the blame on his son, Jason Simpson.

1. I have to admit I am surprised that anyone could ever shake my certainty

about OJ's guilt in this case. If this guy is right, it's truly a tragic story.

[ScreamingMeemie]

2. My father has long believed that it was O.J.'s son.

Given the constraints of DNA testing at the time.

[hlthe2b]

4. I'll have to go read the article. Admittedly, I originally thought the son COULD be guilty...

but had gone along with the reasons for discounting him... some time ago and convinced that OJ was guilty. I remember being in a Santa Fe hotel when the slow speed white bronco chase was televised live and remaining transfixed despite having plans to go out. The possibility of OJ committing suicide and the son's anguish when the vehicle arrived in the driveway DID make me think that one or the other was guilty and the son might certainly react that way if his father were covering for him.

That said, I'll have to go read the article. Yes... the DNA results could certainly have been consistent with the son if they had not compared both father and son.




Jason Simpson is now 41 years old????!!!! Oh, my...

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. "Jason Simpson is now 41 years old????!!!! Oh, my..."

That came screaming out at me as well.

Hard to believe.

[PassingFair]

22. Son from a previous marriage...

Mother's name was Marguerite L. Whitley.

[ScreamingMeemie]

24. Yes. We are NFL fans in my family, silly.

His son with Nicole Brown is Justin. My father has thought all along that Jason was worth at least a cursory glance.

[PassingFair]

25. I still think OJ did it. n/t

[ScreamingMeemie]

26. I've no idea. But then, I never did. Prosecution sucked on that one.

[Greybnk48]

10. After watching that trial religiously

several people in my family believe that too. That OJ covered for Jason.

[Poll_Blind]

3. Hunh. nt

PB

[bart95]

5. i thought he WAS found innocent!

but the book is a nice follow on to 'IF i did it, here's how I would have'

now they just need to work on proving he didnt do what he's actually in prison for now (sports memorabilia robbery in LV hotel)

[eShirl]

6. he was found "not guilty"

[hamsterjill]

18. "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit"

I miss Johnny Cochran!

[obamanut2012]

7. This theory has been out there for a while now

Since almost the very beginning.

I can see Jason totally covering up for his father, though, but I think there's too much evidence pointing at OJ specifically, including the defensive wounds on his hands and arms, and all the blood evidence.

[joeybee12]

8. Yeah, nice how the jury ignored those defensive wounds...

In cases like this it's usually the spouse/partner/lover...OJ did it...

[obamanut2012]

13. Exactly -- the "broken glass story"

Photos and description show their are classic defensive wounds. Ron Goldman fought very hard for his life.

And, as you said, the HUGE majority of murdered women, as in all but a very few, are killed by husbands, boyfriends, or their exes. Very, very few are killed by strangers.

[hatrack]

17. And it was a knife attack - which seldom happens except when it's very personal . . .

As in an enraged ex, etc.

[obamanut2012]

19. Yup -- and, he knew he could easily overpower Nicole

Killers don't go after people who they perceive as a physical threat with a knife. Good point.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

28. I just finished all 576 pages of this book. Explaining why he thinks Jason did it can

not be explained in a short post here. The author meticulously deduces it by looking at all
the evidence and uncovers a lot that the LAPD ignored.

Those cuts were NOT defensive wounds from a knife. Henry Lee and other experts were
consulted on this. Most likely, those wounds were from jumping the fence at his house.

The author does not purport that OJ was not involved at all. He did go to the crime
scene. But he proves that Jason, not OJ, was the killer

According to experts, blood would have been spurting out of aortas an jugular veins and
OJ would have been drenched in blood. This is where Dear starts - addressing the
things about OJ being guilty that don't make sense.

[alcibiades_mystery]

9. Dude's been flogging this theory for a number of years online

I guess he found a publisher.

[mnmoderatedem]

21. his book should be subtitled

I'm in this for the Money...

[Laura PourMeADrink]

30. That is JUST NONSENSE. He spent 14 years of his life researching

the case. He spent his own money - probably a fortune - over
all these years - flying back and forth to LA and elsewhere tracking
down the experts and witnesses who weren't interviewed by the
LAPD.

If you read the book, there would be no doubt in your mind that
he was driven, as an investigator to find the truth and solve
the crime.

[bathroommonkey76]

23. Do you remember the book that Mark Fuhrman wrote about Micheal Skakel?

Fuhrman's book helped open up that 30 year old case. If Micheal Dear is as credible as he says he is, then I see no problem with the LA courts giving this case another look. The real question is... Do they really want to jump back into this OJ circus of media coverage? Who knows?

[hifiguy]

11. Most interesting.

I watched a fair amount of the trial and was quite confident that Simpson would be acquitted. That case was anything but the slam-dunk it was portrayed as being in the media and a number of other lawyers I know agreed with me.

[JSK]

12. What about the Bruno Magli shoes?

Did he borrow his dad's shoes? Or maybe they went shopping together and they each had a pair. And the same size feet.

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. My son has the same size feet that his father had.

He wears his cowboy boots all the time.

I wouldn't stake a claim on a pair of shoes, one way or the other.

[obamanut2012]

16. EXCELLENT point

Maybe even better than any DNA evidence that came out. Those "ugly ass shoes" Simpson said he didn't own.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

31. missing the point - the author says that OJ did go there - to the

crime scene. He just didn't actually commit the murder.

27. Thank you Generic Other and bathroommonkey76

I never thought OJ did it and knew there was no way they could convict him, that the murderer was probably a friend or family member.

What's in these videos is a lot more than I bargained for. I just watched them all and Dear makes a convincing argument.

If he's correct, and it sounds as if he is, the tragedy is even more staggering.

I don't feel right about him going through Jason's trash like that but he did and it's done. The picture of Jason that emerges is heart-breaking. What a broken and lost soul.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

29. If you can...read the book...it is absolutely fascinating! Interesting about the trash. In

California, once trash is moved on to the street it is fair game and owned by no one.
