Publicity? Attention?? hey we're talking OJ "outrun a whole football team" Simpson here. I've seen people in the 1970's look for the chance to order orange juice at a IHOP by shout bring me an OJ!! Just a chance to have his initials role off their lips. Race has nothing to do with it! He was just a famous as Tiger, so whatever he did was going to be highly publicized.

the only reason why it got as much coverage as it did. had she not been, it would have gotten some attention, but it would not have been dragged on for three years.

[starsfound]

you mean to tell me cuz she was blond and attractive, is the only reason it got coverage? NONSENSE!

[starsfound]

I think cuz Kobe is more famous. what exactly are you implying ?

[Campbell7204]

Youre right. Ray Lewis isnt as famous as OJ. But he is about as equally famous as Kobe Bryant.  So why did Kobe's non-rape case receive far more attn than Ray Lewis's non-murder case?

[Campbell7204]

But if she was a minority or an ugly white girl, lets face it. It would not have received that much attention.

Ray Lewis is No where near as famous as Oj Simpson, Not even close. He did not go set out to knife those people to death either. there's a big difference there. Judge Ito allowed cameras in Oj's trial, most say for his own self centered reasons. You are not looking at all the facts in Natalie's case. She was in another country when she disappeared, that was the reason it got the coverage it did. Surely not just cuz it was a white girl.

[Campbell7204]

My theory is debatable. Ray Lewis is a great football player, too. Though it came out he was in all likelihood innocent, his murder trial received minimal publicity and there were no cameras in the courtroom. There was also a civil settlement with the victim's family. Also, say Natalee Holloway was a minority. Do you really think her case would have gooten as much publicity?

[starsfound]

Hell yes I would of been upset. It had nothing to do with their race. It had all to do with Oj getting away with murder. He brutally murdered two people. The case was sensationalized not cuz he killed two white people, it was cuz it was Oj the famous, good looking, fantastic football player. Your theory is toxic.
