O.J. Simpson became one of America’s great villains.
Millions of Americans believe Simpson murdered his wife and Ron Goldman on the night of June 12, 1994.
And what Karine Jean-Pierre said about O.J. Simpson will leave your jaw on the ground.
Simpson’s family announced on April 11 that Simpson died from cancer.
On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer.
He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren.
During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace.

Simpson’s death led to a rehashing of his 1995 “trial of the century” where a mostly black jury ignored all the evidence in front of their faces as well as logic to acquit Simpson for the murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.
Many considered this a travesty of justice as O.J. literally got away with murder due to his wealth, celebrity, and his race.
Reporters asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about Simpson’s death and Jean-Pierre simply stated she wished to respect Simpson’s family’s privacy with no mention of the families of Nicole Brown or Ron Goldman.
“Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time,” Jean-Pierre said. “I know they have asked for some privacy and so we’re going to respect that. I’ll just leave it there.”
Jean-Pierre’s callous comments erasing the murder victims were bad enough.
But the media was not to be outdone in stooping to new lows in their coverage.
CNN’s Stephanie Elam claimed black jurors acquitting O.J. was a form of racial payback.

The Associated Press’ tweet about Simpson’s death focused on his football exploits where he won a Heisman Trophy in college and made the Hall of Fame for his professional career with the Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers and that Simpson losing his fame and place in American pop culture made him the true victim of the murder trial.

The media tried to retrofit Simpson killing his ex-wife and her friend into their woke 2024 identity politics narrative.
It was a shameful display that many will not soon forget.
