Just to clarify for people.
Acquitted=Not Guilty=Innocent
Yes Acquitted and Not Guilty both mean that person is innocent.
Innocent until proven guilty.....ring a bell?

It's ironic, OJ has been to trial and there wasn't enough evidence to convict him. And yet most think he did murder his wife. Could it be that wrongful death judgement that went against him?

Not guilty in a criminal sense, but far from innocent. Anybody with an IQ above room temperature (including his own children, I'm sure) saw the evidence that was presented at both his criminal and civil trials and have drawn their own conclusions.

The jury found him to be not guilty which is not the same as innocent. If only the smug b*stard had been allowed to publish his book, he would have told us exactly how he got away with it.

The jury found him, most believe mistakenly, NOT GUILTY, he's still not innocent. The overwhelming evidence still suggests that he's the one.

OJ is still out there trying to find the "real" killers on every golf course in america. I hear he sees the real killer everyday, when he's shaving!

because he is not. This was an emotional crime. No one else had the love-hate emotions like Simpson did.
