How much more evidence do we need to express how terribly bad our justicial system is? Take you pick of celebrities who are getting away with murder (literally in OJs case). If one of us did any of this we'd locked up forever.
Why is the system so obvious in favoring celebs? How can they get away with it?

Money makes the world go round, and when you have a lot of money, you can afford the best of the best, and unfortunalty, sometimes these judges are fans of these celebrities and go easy on them, I hate it too.

My thought was that the celebrities, whether young women or boxing ring bullies, are coddled because the system is so full of substance abusers that they relate to the users and say to themselves, I could be in that same position. So the judicial system goes easy on the user because the judicials hope someone will go easy on them when they get there themselves.
Other than that, I think you are right, the system is out of balance and the wealth seems to buy legal injustice.

There are levels of influence that the general public. In O.J.s case, The lawyers new someone that had something on someone. The Judaical system is a strange mistress to say the least. Back room deals that have gone on since the inception of the government members sat the first council.

Just drugs. He didn't hurt anyone (this time). I am not really in favor of locking up every drug offender. Drug users need help and support to kick the habit, not to be placed in a cage with other drug users where they will only get worse, not better. (Not to be confused with drug DEALERS, who should be locked up.)
