Can OJ Simpson be re-tried for their murder if he admitted it today?
Under the 'double jeopardy' law Simpson can't be tried again for these murders even if he wrote a book explaining how he did it. Which he did. This law limits the power of overzealous prosecutors and is an important part of our judicial system. But the system is not perfect and there are situations like Simpson's that seem to defy logic. Unfortunately, sometimes individuals can get away with murder.
What did Rodney King and OJ Simpson court cases prove?
I'm not sure if 'prove' is the best word. Both of these cases brought attention to racial equality. And in the case of Simpson it doesn't matter the color of your skin, just the color of your money.
It is a confusion.

What is one important aspect of the OJ Simpson trial?
It proved that no matter whether or not you are guilty, you can win by going to court, especially when the jury is biased.
Did OJ Simpson grow up in a rough neighborhood?
OJ grew up in the public housing projects located on Potrero Hill in San Francisco. The area itself is relatively gentrified, but the projects themselves tend to experience frequent crime. The location is by no means one of the rougher areas in San Francisco, but my understanding is that it was a lot less affluent decades ago.

O.J had multiple Bentley's, but he sold most of them.
Was OJ Simpson a jealous person?
Jealous may not be the correct word. Of couse it was probably part of the emotion that went into the crime. The bigger part of it would most likely be control. He most certainly was controlling.
Although for obvious reasons, the Simpson's felt it best to go their own ways, and OJ Simpson was in fact involved with someone else at the time of the murders, he could not let go of his control over his ex-wife. Ronald Goldman was just a victim of circumstance. He was more or less incidental, wrong place, wrong time.
After the criminal trial and then the civil trial (in which Simpson was found guilty) Simpson continued to have serious problems with his relationships. One girlfriend had to call police because of physical abuse by Simpson. After that his own daughter had to also call 911 because her father was hitting her and being abusive.
No matter the outcome of the criminal trial, Simpson has a problem that makes his living in any community difficult to impossible. I fear the day he has finished his prison sentence for armed robbery and is released once again on the world.
How did the OJ Simpson case effect the community?
It depends which OJ Simpson case you're referring to, his murder trial, his civil wrongful death case, or his kidnapping/armed robbery case. His aquittal for the murder trial stunned and shocked the white community and proved that justice is colorblind after all. The color of money, not skin. The civil trial was a measure of justice for the Brown and Goldman families, and to a smaller degree, Dective Mark Furman. And with his last trial, the kidnapping/armed robbery trial, the community can sleep a little easier knowing Simpson is behind bars for a while.
