| Johnnie Cochran Dead at 67 Famed laywer Johnnie Cochran died today at age 67 from an inoperable brain tumor. He was best known for the OJ case and also represented many other celebrities: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/n...ck=2&cset=true http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...s/obit_cochran __________________ When people get the opportunity to talk about the real issues, it becomes clear how vacuous the present agenda is. I have never met anyone in Vermont who thinks it's a good idea to give tax breaks to billionaires and cut back on health care and education. Nobody.-U.S. Representative Bernie Sanders | |||

| I knew he had been very sick recently but I thought it was just an infection of some sort. I had no idea it was a brain tumor. | |||

| That's too bad. That being said, OJ Simpson is and always will be a murderer. I couldn't with a clear conscience defend a murderer. I suppose if you TRULY believe someone is innocent then you could defend them, but how many people really believe in their heart that OJ was innocent. Not me that's for sure. He killed her and most of the country knows it. | |||

UM, yeah, he helped a MURDERER get off, what about the families of the 2 people OJ killed....that being said, I do feel for his family. Death is always hard, but what goes around, comes around. He got to go more peacefully than Ron and Nicole did __________________ Ask God for anything and you will get an answer; its just that sometimes, that answer is no. free the west memphis three! | |||

| The prosecution definitely screwed the case up, but if OJ didn't have Cochran he'd most likely be in jail. I understand Cochran was just doing his job, but I don't see how anyone can defend someone who so obviously was a murderer. I mean I can see arguing a lesser sentence, but I personally could never defend a murderer, knowing that they could possibly walk free. Guess it comes down to money, I dunno. Or maybe he really, truly believes OJ is innocent. | |||
