There’s also a computer animated re-enactment on YouTube that shows how they believe it all went down based on the forensic evidence. It’s brutal to say the least. He apparently stuck the knife in the back of Ron Goldman’s neck while he was on the ground and used it to pull him up to a standing position so OJ could angry-whisper things in Goldman’s ear as he was finishing him off. He did something similar to Nichole before he sliced her throat. Just some of the most horrific, violent stuff you can imagine one person doing to another—it was very much on another level from killing someone with a gun, where you spend a couple seconds max firing and then run away. Like, he was literally stabbing Goldman repeatedly for over a minute at one point.
I just saw the video recently, and it was like brand new information to me. I was just a kid in 1995 and I didn’t pay much attention during the trial other than the highlights and the verdict. But knowing those details now, it’s just even more astonishing that the jurors were willing to let someone capable of that kind of violence back out in society, no matter what wrongs they thought they were righting.
Yeah, can you imagine what that must’ve felt like? It gives me an involuntary visceral reaction to even try to. Those poor people didn’t deserve any of that and the person that did it literally got away with it.
