OJ Simpson Blasts Henry Ruggs' Prison Sentence: 'The Math Just Does Not Add Up'

O.J. Simpson is calling out the criminal justice system, questioning why former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs was given a shorter prison sentence than he was in the same courthouse.

"Now, I know I went to college on a football scholarship, but somehow this math is not adding up to me," quipped Simpson in a video shared on Twitter.

He compared both cases, noting, "You're driving a car at roughly 60 MPH on a public street, killing a girl and her dog and you get 3 to 10 years. You go to a hotel room that you're invited to, to retrieve your own personal stolen property—property I now have because it was ruled to be mine by the state of California—and you get 9 to 33 years."

Simpson then pointed out, "Same courthouse, same state." He shook his head and said, "I don't know. It just does not add up to me. I'm just saying."

Many in the replies found the humor in the athlete being the one to say this.

"Nahhhh OJ the LAST person that should be talking about jail time😭😭," wrote a Cardinals fan account.

"This ain’t it OJ… you might wanna sit this one out mane 😒," read another reply.

Someone else wrote, "Not O.J. Simpson talking about a crime and saying 'the numbers don't add up.'"

Though Simpson was found not guilty in the murder of his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994, he served a nine-year prison sentence starting in 2008 after allegedly recovering his sports memorabilia stolen at gunpoint in Las Vegas, which he was believed to have stolen.
