Dear Dr. Richard Shepherd, I am troubled that you called the final throat slicing in the murder of Nicole Brown Simpson, a 'Coup De Grace'. A 'Coupe de Grace' is a mercy death blow to end suffering. This psychotic killer had no intention of ending any suffering; it was a either a crime of passion (love or hate) killing that wanted her eradicated, and/or they only wanted to assure her death beyond any and all means. This is far, far from a 'coup de grace.' Wrongfully using this phrase in your 'Nicole Brown Simpson/ Ron Goldman's' final hours' has also elevated O.J. Simpson to a new high or low, which ever side you are on. Although I was taken back by this last final act of slicing or sawing her throat on your show (even 20 years later), you were still very wrong and very incorrect for phrasing it as a 'Coup De Grace.'
