New Documentary on O.J. Simpson

On November 9th., 2010 a new documentary is coming out on O.J. Simpson entitled “Monster or Myth” and it contains O.J.’s last interview before was incarcerated. The film includes explosive interviews with attorneys Alan Dershowitz, Marcia Clark and her prosecution team, the defense team of the Cochran Firm with F. Lee Bailey and Sean Chapman Holly and a special interview with O.J.'s eldest daughter, Arnell Simpson. His trial polarized a nation and captivated the world. Before going to jail, Orenthal J. Simpson gave director Jay Gira his last interview and access to an amazing story that can finally be heard. Viewers will ride with O.J. in his van as he re-traces events at key locations including the LA Superior courthouse, the USC campus, the infamous Bundy Drive where Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were murdered and the 405 freeway where the epic police chase occurred.

RR Nev conviction for Cal Murders

Please add these known key facts - to the discussion: Many felt that OJ was RR/ed for the Nevada offenses due to lingering general concensus that he was guilty in the Cal Murders; however, no one could convict OJ of those murders if you only consider briefly, the clear fact that a cell phone was found alongside the Goldman boy which places another person at the scene of the murders; and realizing that, no one could any longer convict OJ, without that 3rd person being located, brought forward and cleared, as you cannot assume that the murderer was OJ and not that 3rd person, leaving a clear reasonable doubt and NO ONE able to convict OJ. Then, RR/ing OJ for the Nevada offenses in which his co-actors are given white wash, small sentences becomes more clearly a RR job for OJ with his being given 33 yr sentence. /s Cam OJ Heisman 69.121.221.97 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 06:27, 12 December 2010 (UTC).

Why not of the introduction sentence to say "and convicted felon"? In other weekee articles, like of Scooter Libby, it includes the word "convicted felon" as if to take a jab at the person.

In general it takes four days and 10 edits to the wiki to become auto-confirmed. — Bility (talk) 14:40, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

In Criminal History, it should include "While held in jail during his trial, O.J. Simpson made a full confession to a visitor that was overheard by a guard standing next to a door where the two were meeting. The prosecution tried to get the guard to testify in front of jury in his criminal trial, but Judge Ito did not allow the testimony. The argument by the defense was that the visitor that O.J. confessed to was a "spiritual advisor", and thus privileged, similar to confessing to a priest or a rabbi. This was confirmed by one of O.J. Simpson's Dream Team attorneys, Barry Schneck, to a classroom full of law students where he teaches at Santa Clara Law School, Santa Clara, California."

Please indicate an other source(such as here : O.J.Simpson#Legal history#Alleged confession ), not only the mention of this Santa Clara seminar. Otherwise, it can not be included here.--Pierre et Condat (talk) 07:13, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

prison not jail

Jail refers to county jail. So the graphic that says "up to 33 years in jail" is incorrect. He is in PRISON. It's annoying how people seem to think it's the same thing. I guess they think apartments and mansions are the same thing.

Opinion: lead

{{edit semi-protected}} Personal opinion: I don't think listing "convicted felon" in the opening sentence as though it was his job is particularly professional. For example, the opening sentence in the Charlie Sheen article doesn't end with "and a drug addict who was fired from a popular sitcom". It is more appropriate to add another sentence in the first paragraph that addresses the crimes.

I agree, so I've removed it. Please feel free to propose specific wording for a new sentence. (For future reference, don't use "Tld|" when applying the "edit semi-protected" template; it causes the template to be linked instead of included.) Powers ^T 14:02, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Section on OJ Simpsons' time in San Francisco is factually wrong

The page claims that OJ Simpson was traded to the 49ers for a second round pick, when in fact the 49ers traded a first-round pick which was the first overall pick for OJ Simpson. The line also seems to have subversive bias. It says that Simpson played two "unremarkable" seasons in San Francisco.67.169.25.132 (talk) 19:12, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

The Pro Football Hall of Fame says Simpson was traded from the Buffalo Bills to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for 2nd round draft pick in 1978 (DE Scott Hutchinson), 3rd round draft pick in 1978 (WR Danny Fulton), 1st round draft pick in 1979 (LB Tom Cousineau), 4th round draft pick in 1979 (DE Ken Johnson), and 2nd round draft pick in 1980 (RB Joe Cribbs). You're spot on on that "unremarkable" is a tad POV. I've made an edit, accordingly. TJRC (talk) 20:56, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. The Niners traded 5 picks, one of which was the first overall pick; yet the article states that the Niners traded only one 2nd round pick (note: that has been updated). Even though I mentioned only one pick, the article should be updated to reflect the facts. The article should state that one of those picks was the first overall (1979).67.169.25.132 (talk) 20:51, 22 December 2011 (UTC)67.169.25.132 (talk) 20:49, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

An NFL game in 1968(?) nicknamed the "O.J. Bowl"

I'm putting this on the discussion page because it's just from my memory and a little too informal to put into the main article. There was a game between the Steelers and the Eagles nicknamed the "O.J. Bowl" because it was thought that the loser would get first crack at drafting O.J. Simpson. The Eagles won that game, 12-0, on 4 field goals by Sam Baker. But it was the Buffalo Bills who ended up drafting Simpson. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 19:45, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

In the page for 1968 Pittsburgh Steelers season, it refers to a different game as the O J Bowl. The Steelers defeated the Eagles, 6-3; the only scoring was field goals. I find this:

>This game was dubbed the "O.J. Bowl" as it was rumored that the losing team would get to draft O.J. Simpson. He would eventually be drafted by the Buffalo Bills.

There was a 12-0 win by the Eagles that season against the Detroit Lions (not the Steelers), and it did have just those 4 field goals by Sam Baker.

Edit Suggestion

In February 2001, Simpson was arrested in Miami-Dade County, Florida for simple battery and burglary of an occupied conveyance for allegedly yanking the glasses off another motorist during a traffic dispute 3 months earlier. If convicted, Simpson faced up to 16 years in prison. He was put on trial and quickly acquitted on both charges in October 2001.[31]

Edit request on 6 August 2012

In the first sentence about Simpson, where it says, "Orenthal James "O. J." Simpson' (born July 9, 1947), nicknamed "The Juice", is a retired American college and professional football player, football broadcaster and actor," Instead it should say, Orenthal James "O. J." Simpson (born July 9, 1947), nicknamed "The Juice", is a retired American college and professional football player, football broadcaster, actor, criminal and convicted felon. I believe this change to be necessary due to the fact that Simpson is indeed a criminal and that should be stated along with all of the other "things," that he is. If he wasn't a celebrity, his wiki would likely only read, "convicted felon." Jhillzer07 (talk) 21:37, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Not done: He is notable even without the felony incident. The incident is just a side point and is mentioned elsewhere in the article. Electric Catfish 23:45, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

"Career Highlights and Awards" section

Under "Career Highlights and Awards", there should be mention of Simpson being a member of the "Single Season 2,000 Yards Rushing Club" and of him being a member of the "10,000 Rushing Yards Club". He was the first player to rush for over 2,000 yards in a single season, and the only player to do so in a 14 game season. Barry Sanders met both of these criteria as well; and both of these accolades are separately mentioned in the sidebar on his page.

Edit request on 12 May 2013

OJ claims his lawyer botched his case regarding armed robbery and kidnapping charges. OJ Simpson will go to court and take the stand to raise questions about how his lawyer represented him during his 2008 convection armed robbery and kidnapping conviction and his failed appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court in 2010. If OJ is successful a judge could rule that he deserves a new trial and if he is granted a new trial the prosecutors would have to decide whether to retry him or offer a plea deal sparing the time and expense of another trial.

NFL Pension amount wrong

OJ's NFL pension is listed as $28,000 per month, yet the listed supporting footnote links to a Sports Illustrated article on NFL pensions and it specifically says OJ's NFL pension is $28,000 yearly. At the bottom of the SI article, it lists a correction that wrongly had earlier called in a monthly pension, and that article appears to have been corrected to yearly. The OJ page here needs to be corrected to "yearly".Rain252 (talk) 02:25, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

I don't understand. I don't care what your citation claims - it is clearly WRONG. Since when does Wikipedia condone incorrect facts simply because some source can be found for them? Should we also state that the Holocaust and the Moon landings were faked? Ridiculous. I suggest that any weight information be DATED as he is clearly much over 96 kg. Date it or remove it. There is no reason why the NFL would know his weight after he retired in 1979 at the age of 32 - he is now almost 67. Using data from before 1980 is simply misleading. I also think that his numerous convictions for violence and felonies should be added to the box. Also, aren't there credible claims that he was tearful and suicidal during the White Bronco Chase incident?72.172.10.114 (talk) 01:15, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

AT THE END OF "LAS VEGAS ROBBERY" SECTION -- current news reports and legal standing:

In January, 2014 it was reported that Simpson had been diagnosed with brain cancer and was requesting a pardon from President Obama

However, even if the report of cancer is true, as the convictions were for state crimes, only the Nevada Board of Pardons Commissioners would have jurisdiction in his case.

Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed. although your first two references seem sound, your third reference is incomplete, so I do not know which page you were referring to.
Although this page of the Nevada pardons site says "the power to grant a pardon does not extend to crimes committed under federal laws" I cannot find a Nevada page saying that "as the convictions were for state crimes, only the Nevada Board of Pardons Commissioners would have jurisdiction in his case".
Can you please complete the reference you were trying to add? Thanks Arjayay (talk) 18:06, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

Arjayay - no offense, but it should be common knowledge that the US Federal justice system and the State systems are independent. The POTUS can no more pardon O.J. than the Nevada governor can pardon someone convicted in Maine. The fact that you seem to be asking for "proof" of this indicates, clearly indicates, that you have NO business editing this section at all! Unless there is some specific provision in the State of Nevada Constitution, or possibly under State law, any request to POTUS is worthless. Incidentially, the two reports are almost certainly wrong - that is, they are idle gossip of the chattering class.72.172.10.114 (talk) 01:49, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

My suggestion into the OJ simpson case is when the oj simpson case occurred when he (Oj Simpson) came home as any normal person would (You know what I mean). When he found them while having sex(ETC normal or nasty). Than Oj came into the house than they put their clothes on and than the couple panicked on oj because oj might have told them in a medium tone. Why are you sleeping with my wife without even telling me about this honey? (Talking to both his wife and affairing friend of OJS Wife. Than when the conversation got heated the boyfriend got upset and attempted to kill him with a knife where OJ used his martial arts skills and NFL skills to take the knife away as a mode of defense. Than when the affaired friend dropped the knife, oj s wife attempted to run for the knife and than she ran at OJ simpson where Oj took the knife away than quickly killed them both because OJ had no other choice or he would die and that would be the final briefcase issue to resolve that case as purely self-defense.

In the college football career section two very different numbers are given for the number of yards that he rushed for in 1968. In the first paragraph it says that he rushed for 1,880 yards in 1968. In the fourth paragraph, it says that he rushed for 1,709 yards in 1968. The one in the fourth paragraph is incorrect. I think that the number given in the fourth paragraph for the number of rushing touchdowns in 1968 is also incorrect. The number given is 22. According to sports-reference.com, it should be 23.

outdated main photo

Why include an ancient photograph from a 1/4 century ago? That makes this article look somewhat like an OJ fan site. To provide more accurate info show what he looks like now.

You are presumably referring to the image at the top of the article. There are two obvious reasons for this image:

1. The image from 1990 shows the article subject as he appeared during the peak of his acting career. It is common to use images of a person during or near the end of their peak public career for biographical articles as this is how people are best known to the general public.
2. The image is freely licensed. Due to his current circumstances, it is extremely difficult to obtain a recent image that is freely licensed. Non-free images are not usable due to Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria.

Might need protection

Hello Wiki friends..

Might I suggest this page be protected for a while as an enormous bombshell is about to be dropped on this case, it has come to light the (suspected) murder weapon has been found and has spent the last 20 years in the possession of an LA police officer that decided to simply keep it as a souvenir of the case when it was discovered. The knife is currently being tested to determine what evidence (if any) remains. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.47.107.169 (talk) 12:45, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 30 April 2016

In the filmograpy table, you need to add "American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson" Adscool09 (talk) 05:26, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Not done: "American Crime Story" is a dramatization of the Simpson trial, and has an actor portraying Simpson. The Filmography section is for media appearances of Simpson in actuality. Marteau (talk) 08:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
