LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: WHY MAKE SUCH A BIG DEAL ABOUT SIMPSON?

Dear Editor,

I am writing this letter to voice my opinion about the O.J. Simpson case that we all watch on the TV everyday. This matter has really gotten out of hand. With the evidence that has been reported by the L.A. Police, I believe he killed his wife and her friend. But why make a big deal and go through a big trial that will probably last for months just to prove he's guilty or not guilty?

Just because he is a famous football player does not mean he has to have a big trial and be broadcast on TV. If it would have been just a person off the street and not someone famous who killed Mrs. Simpson and her friend, that person's trial would have already taken place and a verdict reached and that person would already be in jail. O.J. Simpson is just a regular person. He's not any better than no one else. So why are they making a big deal out of this? They should treat him just like a regular guy, have a regular trial and decide his fate guilty or not guilty and then be done with it.

JUSTIN JOHNSON
