NOW she wants a divorce? So she's been cool with it, but the conviction was just too much to continue to bear.
she married him 10 years after it happened.
I think it's pretty safe to say she didn't know anything and divorced him now that he was found guilty and she had to face the reality that he probably did it
She assumed that he was innocent until he was proven guilty. Crazy concept, right? I mean, not really, but sometimes it seems that it's some arcane knowledge or something and not a core principle of the country.
You're assuming a lot as well
About what is going through her mind? Sure. I don't know the lady, nor does anyone else in this thread. Just like how nobody knows anything about the case. Frankly, his wife's motivation has nothing to do with my point.
I had meant to reply to the guy you replied to, my bad. I like the point you made.
No worries!
That is a reasonable bar for a judicial system, but not for relationships.
Would you let your sister date OJ?
I wouldn't.
Separates finances.
Bingo! Gotta hide the money from the victims.
Another thing I have learned from true crime podcasts.
Yeah…… the timing seems suspect at best… seems like she stuck around to help maintain the best image during the trial but now that he’s busted she’s out.
Assuming that she didn’t know about his behavior (and didn’t want to believe the rumors and accusations), she wouldn’t want to divorce him until the accusations became too big/real/loud to ignore. Yeah, it’s shitty to avoid the truth for decades, but when it’s your spouse, parent or kid, I can see how it would be really hard to face reality.
And once she couldn’t ignore it anymore, he was probably close to getting indicted or having a trial. At that point, I could see holding off on a divorce until the conclusion, just to give the father of your child the best chance at not sitting in jail for the rest of their life. Filing for divorce at the wrong time makes the accused look more guilty and less redeemable.
Assumptions one way or the other are still assumptions, same for me assuming she knew.
