I've met Johnny and actually spent some time with him. While I think his famous client was guilty, I still found him to be a very personable guy.

He's a race-baiting whore.

I've met Johnny and actually spent some time with him. While I think his famous client was guilty, I still found him to be a very personable guy.

He was next to my wife and I at the Acme Oyster Bar in New Orleans in May. He had a noticeable tick.

I wonder if this "neurological condition" is not Parkinsons.

I met him too, it was at a "Portals" Los Angeles fund raiser, and while he has a certain professional and charismatic demeanor, he is certainly a liar, an opportunist, and someone who will answer to God for the "after the act" blood on his hands, and not only for OJ. Just because our society sanctions defense lawyers doesn't allow them to escape eternal justice.

Why is it that so many people, upon meeting a celebrity, just roll over for them--no matter how bad of a person that celeb may be...

"well I met him, and he's a personable guy..."

Please. He's personable like all GREAT con man--Bill Clinton to Johnny Cochran and the like.

I'm sure Billy Boy Clinton would be a fun guy to meet too.

As they say, bad con man aren't successful--only the really good ones can create the major misery that a Johnny Cochran or a Bill Clinton can conjure.

Sorry, don't mean to rant at you, and I'll probably get smacked back hard. I just get sick of that sentiment towards very bad persons, like Cochran. Here's a guy who created the absolutely ludicrous con -- predicated on the playing of the most vile, unsupported racial card -- that allowed a vicious, heinous criminal to run free. I hate the SOB for doing it.

May his personable @ss rot in hell along with other world-class con-men!
