Marc Lamont Hill, a far-left CUNY Graduate Center professor, weighed in on the death of O.J. Simpson by saying his 1995 murder acquittal was “necessary” and “correct” in a “racist legal system.”
Following Simpson’s death due to cancer on April 11, Hill took to X to say: “O.J. Simpson was an abusive liar who abandoned his community long before he killed two people in cold blood. His acquittal for murder was the correct and necessary result of a racist criminal legal system. But he’s still a monster, not a martyr.”
