Essay 911


The new Website — JudgeOJ.com — has officially launched (see Essay 897).

Here’s the opening of the Mission Statement:

“This website has been created to show the general public a side of O.J. Simpson that he has carefully tried to conceal for years. Once the glare of the media lights died down during the day, once the scrutinizing eyes of America were no longer looking at him, another personality of O.J.’s emerged. O.J.’s true character came out when the sun went down. When he was away from the fans, the fanatics, critics and naysayers, O.J. let loose and the camera was there to capture the intimate and revealing nature of O.J.’s media savvy Jekyll & Hyde persona.”

While the creators insist the project is designed to present the real O.J., allowing visitors to make their own judgments, things appear to be skewed anti-O.J.

Visitors are invited to judge O.J.’s innocence. Right now, the tabulation records over 75 percent guilty votes, over 16 percent not guilty votes and nearly 9 percent undecided.
