Charlie,
With my experiences, you’d think that I would have gotten some hint that Fuhrman was the killer but I didn’t. All my “flashes” about the case that I took to be psychic messages starred O.J. as the killer, even when the evidence started to point away from him. I kept seeing him in my mind so clearly in the cap and gloves and sitting in an electric chair.
Yes, I knew that California didn’t have an electric chair, but I took that as merely a symbol for execution – which didn’t make sense, either, because the prosecution wasn’t seeking the death penalty in O.J.’s case.
Much later, when I began to focus on WHY I kept seeing O.J. the way I did, it dawned on me that my original observation that the cap looked exactly like the one he wore in The Naked Gun had a stronger impact on my subconscious than I thought it did. That was also the reason I kept “seeing” him in the gloves. I HAD seen him in similar gloves on Monday Night Football. Nothing extrasensory about it. Just stored memories coming together with a boatload of scenes and fragments of scenes from the movies that seemed to fit the facts of the crime.
This string of ideas started with Rose’s wonderful article about Dick and an experience that could only have been psychic. I think that, in itself, is significant because of Fuhrman’s inappropriate references to Ghosts and what he did to make himself “psychic-proof.” He told a lot of people about his “affair” with Nicole and his feelings of responsibility for her murder because he failed to protect her from O.J. What is a psychic to make of “seeing” Fuhrman as the killer with that idea floating around in the universe? One could easily conclude that your dream of seeing him as the killer came from the “responsibility” idea that Fuhrman planted or something about it that you heard or read. The fact that O.J. would naturally have feelings of responsibly for not protecting his soul mate and the mother of his youngest children would certainly complicate the matter.
The bottom line is Fuhrman does believe in ESP (Ghosts, Nicole “speaking from the grave, etc.). He knows its weaknesses and how to exploit them. My spotty psychic experiences obviously don’t make me a psychic. Even real psychics couldn’t handle what Fuhrman fed them.
Yes, you may get the right impressions – sometimes – but how do you separate them from subconsciously generated look-alikes? And what the hell do they mean? –Jasper
