Are Vegas cops treading too lightly with OJ?

[hondo]

A former homicide detectives on Hannity and Colmes said if there is a videotaped statement given by a victim that he has been robbed, it's probable cause to arrest a suspect. That's what the Vegas cops have with OJ.

A former DA said since items have been recovered, it's even more probable cause.

So why is OJ being named a suspect, but has not been arrested?

Another homicide cop on the show said the Vegas police are going to tread lightly, because he's OJ.

Just as I was saying on another thread that has now been locked: the rules seem to be different for former Heisman Trophy winners.

Maybe the **** WAS his??

Still not allowed to pull guns in a public place to get it back.

Is a hotel room a public place?

no it isn't.

Public place or not, I'm pretty sure pulling a gun on someone in their home or hotel room is a crime. Even in Nevada.

No doubt it's a crime but obviously, there isn't enough proof for an arrest.

According to who? You?

Gino Torretta and Andre Ware certainly hope so.

Apparently according to the LVPD. To my knowledge no arrest has been made. That's all I'm going on.

Who cares, justice will prevail!

Apparently the people at SportsJournalists.com care. There have been three threads on The Juice.

I haven't followed it closely enough to even have a guess about whether there is probable cause for an arrest. But let's say I called the police and said, "Hondo robbed me at gunpoint!" You think they should arrest you based on my accusation?

But, meanwhile:

Juice . . . don't leave town . . . OK?

Thanks.

But he's still on the loose. People have said he's getting special treatment. I don't see it that way at all.

Well, I certainly base much of what I believe on the sterling insights of the Hannity and Colmes Extravaganza.
That said, I don't think there's a cop in America who doesn't want to bust OJ.

Which is why I contend there must not be much there because he's having a good time in Sin City.

Maybe not, but I'd be in an interrogation room or the holding cell overnight.

That must be the reason then...

 

[Bob Slydell]

Could be that since they are more than likely dealing with SO many shady characters the police don't know who to believe. Which is why he hasn't been arrested yet.
