 Interesting.  I was completely baffled by the people waiting for
 his arrival in Brentwood.  Not the media, the public. I don't say
 he wasn't a tortured man last night - AND the day/night he killed
 Nicole and friend - but any tendency I might've had toward sympathy
 for him was instantly overruled by sympathy for the truly innocent
 victims of this debacle.  Yes, I felt sorry for his children.  I
 can't imagine seeing my parent in such a predicament.  I'd be so
 humiliated.  Amazing how so many years went into this boy from the
 ghetto gaining the respect and admiration of a nation, and only
 moments to wipe that all out.  What fools we mortals be.
