The Simpson Case Summary
Schiller followed Simpson's case as he stood trial for the 1994 murder of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman. In a new interview with ABC News' 20/20, Schiller reveals that Simpson's lawyer — the late Robert Kardashian — found the athlete standing in his now world-famous daughter's room with a gun in his hand. The incident occurred before Simpson's white Bronco chase.
According to Schiller, Simpson made "almost like a suicide tape" in Kim's room that was "intended to be his final words."
"Oh boy, I don't know how I ended up here," Simpson allegedly said on the tape, obtained by Schiller. "Please remember me as 'The Juice.' Please remember me as a good guy. Don't remember me as one of the negatives that might end up

    In Morrison v. Olsen, the issue of the Independent Counsel Provision in the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 was challenged and the court decided that it was not unconstitutional because it did not violate the separation of powers by taking power from the Executive and giving more to the Judicial or Legislative branches. Alexia Morrison had been appointed as the independent counsel to investigate Morrison to see if he had violated federal law; he sued her arguing that the Independent Counsel had taken away powers from the executive. The majority held that Morrison was an “inferior officer” due to the ability of the Attorney General to remove her for “good cause”, she can only perform certain limited duties, she is limited in jurisdiction, and…

    In the case of Smith v. United States, the plaintiff, John Angus Smith, was convicted of engaging in drug-trafficking, which would have granted him a five year sentence had he not “used” a firearm in regards to the incident. As stated in statute 924(c)(1), the use of firearm in relations to a drug-trafficking crime enhanced the sentence, and turned it into a 30-year sentence. The argument at hand is whether the term “use” was to be taken from a broad dictionary definition or in the ordinary meaning. The majority of the court argued that the term “use” should not be limited to the intended use of the firearm (as a weapon) as they exemplified cases of which the firearm was used as a bludgeon even though that was not it’s intended purpose, yet…

Months after his release he wrote a book called If I Did It which is a hypothetical confession about the murders. This proves that our justice system is flawed because there is no way that Simpson was innocent. If they could have gathered more evidence, he would not have been a free man.…
