OJ Simpson’s Jury As White As White Can Be
Just as we predicted yesterday, the jury for OJ Simpson's armed robbery and kidnap trial has now been picked - but there's one tiny problem. They're all white. Every single one of them. Now don't get us wrong, it almost wasn't an entirely white jury. It's just that one prospective black juror was quite religious and therefore capable of forgiveness so she had to go. We're not making this up, you know. So, here's how OJ Simpson stands before his trial properly starts on Monday. He's being tried for the first time since he was acquitted of two murders he's widely believed to have committed, for a crime with several witnesses that he was actually recorded participating in, and the only thing stopping him from spending the rest of his life in jail is a group of 12 white people who've been specifically chosen for their lack of forgiveness. Yeah, we're sure he'll be fine.
