@SnoopSister : Just my opinion. The lead detective was a significant problem for the prosecution. It put into question all the physical evidence.

@eighteen : I'm gonna need to see proof of that one. I know he cheated on her but I can't find anything about being abusive. I even saw this
"Even though Crews never became physically abusive towards his wife, he admitted to the profound effect of being surrounded by the ideology that "it's a man's world" and that, as a man, any form of weaknesses is shameful."

@tinytim :
That definitely doesn't help. It also helps to have a massive team of the best lawyers. 😂
I watched something once that said the jury visited his home. They were mostly black so his team went in before they got there and replaced all the pictures of him with white people with those of him and black people.
Isn't it super weird to take a jury to a defendant's house?

@MrsT : I guess that's what he meant by being abusive. You don't have to hit someone to be abusive.ETA: He was on stage when he talked about it. I believe this was before or just after him hosting AGT. I'm sure there's a video clip out there somewhere.

@eighteen :
His father was abusive and he was sexually assaulted.

@MrsT : Ok? So, emotional and mental abuse don't exist? If the Man publicly apologized for being abusive toward his Wife, than that is how he felt. If he grew up watching his Father treat his Mother badly, he is probably more sensitive toward mistreating Women and walks around with a higher level of emotional intelligence. But hey, you are free to come to your own conclusion on what does and doesn't count as abuse.

@eighteen :
Look all I'm saying is we were discussing OJ beating the holy crap out of his wife and you say Terry Crews used to be abusive to his wife. The next line in that article was "An example of this is an experience Crews recounted where his wife urged him to get a job after leaving the NFL. He explained how he was still of the mindset of "I'm the man of the house, I can do whatever I want!" and ignored her urgings." This is in no way comparable to beating and terrorizing a woman. I asked for some confirmation besides "I heard him say". If he did, it should be on the internet somewhere. I know all about abuse, emotional AND physical. I lived it for many years.

@MrsT : To me you're being dismissive and insensitive, as if a lack of visible bruises isn't considered abuse. This is how I learned Crews played in the NFL... BTW, this article took me less than 10 seconds to find.
www.businessinsider. com/terry-crews-porn -addiction-affected- relationship-wiThe comparison I'm making is that they both played in the NFL in an era where performance enhancers were prevalent. Abuse, in any form, is not foreign behavior to professional athletes. Really, any job that requires a high level of testosterone becomes problematic if that switch isn't turned off after leaving the environment it's needed. Again, I'm not excusing any abusive behavior; however, this discussion has spiraled in a different direction, because of your inability to find the information on the internet. 🙄

@eighteen :
To me you're comparing apples to oranges. I think OJ used his fame to get away with being a complete pos. He never took responsibility for anything . Crews behaved the way he did because he was raised by parents who were in an emotionally and physically abusive relationship, not football. Not steroids. He was never physically abusive, he learned being "macho" wasn't appropriate so he went to therapy to better himself.
I really don't see how the 2 are comparable in any way. I feel like if you want to put information out there, especially something like someone is abusive then you need to be able to back it up. That's a pretty serious allegation.

@MrsT : Like I said, the information is out there, and I gave you a time frame for when this occurred.

I read an article.......they called OJ's casket the "Juice Box"Bagthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

@eighteen : Maybe because he hired a hit man.

@eighteen : I wonder if his kids will be left with this debt?

@MrsT : Maybe there wasn't physical abuse....but emotional.

@Cbear : He had a long time attorney, can't recall his name, but that is the executor of his will.
