A restaurant owner opted to kick OJ Simpson out of his steakhouse in Kentucky, refusing to serve him. His reasoning is because of "events that he did in the past" and that he disliked the "attention he still attracted."
I am reminded of Dershowitz at this point in time, and in Letters to a Young Lawyer, where he explains that every defendant is worthy of the most vigorous defence within the bounds of the law and if found to be innocent, then IS. About the wrongful death suit that Simpson is guilty of in civil court? Well, he is skirting paying that by keeping his primary residence in Florida, which does not demand that he sell his primary home or his assets in trust to pay civil damages, also within the bounds of the law. Dershowitz perhaps put it most rightly that the justice system is not about the truth, it's about fairness and process - and THAT is why we allow evidence to be excluded based upon the method that it was collected. Fairness.
Apparently some people still have not learned how to play nicely in the sandbox, and I hope that steakhouse owner Jeff Ruby suffers the consequences of it. I hope they take your liquor license. You may dislike OJ, but he is fair and square with the law.
