Actually, they are very similar. OJ killed his wife, and Zimmerman killed Trayvon. Civil trials require less burden of proof.

How do define him as a public figure?

public figure n. in the law of defamation (libel and slander), a personage of great public interest or familiarity like a government official, politician, celebrity, business leader, movie star, or sports hero. Incorrect harmful statements published about a public figure cannot be the basis of a lawsuit for defamation unless there is proof that the writer or publisher intentionally defamed the person with malice (hate).

he meets the standard for great public interest

they are not at all similar. there was never a claim of self defense in OJ's trial. that is a huge difference. OJ claimed he did not kill them, zimmerman claims he did, but it was justifiable. that fact alone makes the two cases distinguishable.

i wouldn't say hands down

he has a higher burden being a 'public figure'

plus he has to prove actual damages

I think he'll clean up myself.

Not necessarily and this is nothing more then you showing that you really don't care if he's innocent or not; because you want VENGENCE, not JUSTICE.
