The Grim reaper strikes. Official death thread

Wouldn’t want those death bed confessions to taint his legacy. It would shatter the perception of all the idiots who believe he was innocent to this day.

Wut - he’s not?

Yes. And it was a pretty big place with a patio where you could watch planes land at Lambert.

Pretty sure it was actually a WWI theme. At least at Palwaukee. I thought it was cool that each table had headphones so you could listen to the tower chatter.

Last time I was there was during the OJ chase, so the decor isn't top on my mind.

Technically a jury did acquit him. Do I think he did it? Yep. Do I have proof ? Nope. I do believe in the US constitution.

While OJ was not held criminally liable he was convicted in civil court for wrongful death. That makes him guilty. Money can buy your freedom if you use it wisely to create enough doubt and suppress enough evidence.

One trial acquitted him, and another found him liable. The truth is we will never know the truth. It's all left to choosing what we believe. I personally believe he did it, but that's just my opinion, and that is all any of us have.

And the bar to find someone guilty is much lower in civil cases vs criminal cases.

Civil court is not "guilt or innocence", it is liable or not liable. But I do believe he did the crime.

Jaimoe is the only original member left. I got to see various incarnations of them up thru Dickey's last performance in 2018, at the Peach Music Festival. Warren Hayes did amazing Allman solo acoustic sets on sunday mornings there for a number of years, too. Anything Allman there was amazing. People attribute that festivals demise due to no more Allman shows. (and the promoters greed)
