O.J. Simpson giving pointers on murder.

[MoonMan]

This is pretty grim and amazing at the same time, has anyone else posted this yet? To me, it just seems like a killer finding a way to profit for his past murders since he can't be tried twice for the same crime.

O.J. Simpson to promote "If I Did It" on Fox
Tue Nov 14, 2006 11:06pm ET

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Fox said Tuesday it will air a two-part interview with O.J. Simpson at month's end in which he describes the 1994 murders of his ex-wife and her friend that he says he didn't commit.

The interview will be conducted by editor and book publisher Judith Regan. On November 30, her Regan Books is publishing a book Simpson wrote with the working title "If I Did It, Here's How It Happened."

Fox said Simpson's book "hypothetically describes" how he would have committed the murders. The special will air at 9 p.m. November 27 and 29 on Fox.

Full coverage
Fox executives declined comment about the show Tuesday. In a statement released Tuesday, executive vice-president/alternative programming Mike Darnell said: "This is an interview that no one thought would ever happen. It's the definitive last chapter in the trial of the century."

Fox is a subsidiary of News Corp., which also owns Regan Books.

A spokeswoman for Regan Books didn't return a phone call or an e-mail seeking comment Tuesday.

Simpson was acquitted in 1995 of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman; he can't be tried again for those crimes. In 1997, a civil court found him responsible for the slayings and ordered him to pay $33.5 million to the victims' families.

wow, the society we live in astounds me some times..... the loopholes in some laws are so bad.
I mean they take the time to punish people who p2p, when the majority of us are hardworking bluecollar types. And peeps like OJ can get away with anything...then brag about it. :icon_puke :icon_scra

[mountain_rage]

Thats what happens when the collective populace of a country lets themselves be bought out by corporations. The united states is under a regime of mighty corporations.

[RACKnRAIL]

Where's a good vigilante when you need one?

[Potato]

I heard about this. I think it's completely ridiculous.

It's the definitive last chapter in the trial of the century.
No, it's like beating a dead horse.

[Krell]

He hasnt paid the last 35.5M in civil damages, so the victim families are trying to get the proceeds, which I hope they get.

that won't happen as the "money" he is being paid for his book is actually tied up in florida land holdings.

I guess thats why they spent millions trying to convict this creep.

[origin]

i wonder if this "book" could be seen as a confession on oj's part. that would be the cherry on top if he would go to jail based on this new evidence. oh well! sorry oj you can't become a best selling author just yet keep trying though!!

[RACKnRAIL]

No sense in starting another thread for the useless fucker.

In other news, it looks like OJ is finally going to jail and it could be for a very long time.

Exactly 13 years to the day of his landmark acquittal. I now believe in karma.

As much as I hate the whole prior OJ affair, setting him with this "crime" because he'd gotton away with a previous murder is a sorry state of affairs, so all he deserves for this is a slap on the wrist.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. He was convicted (this time) of armed robbery and kidnapping, as well as other related charges, and you think that's only worthy of a slap on the wrist?

I think he is really missing some dots on the dice. Why would he even attempt such a stupid thing? You would think he would have been happy enough just to live a free man, but no, he had to have his memorabilia back. It's just fucking stupid. I think he deserves whatever he gets.

He was framed.

And it was a really shitty bust from an obvious set up (sting) to get him busted. Before he did anything the police and FBI were first called to report the theives who had his stolen property and where they and his property were but the cops were not going to help him in any way, and so he wound up taking matters into his own hands at the urging of those who were framing him.

If it would have been anyone else they would have walked.

Framed? That smells like horse shit to me. The whole thing took place in a casino with lots of camera's to tell the tale. Yes, it was also taped but from what I know none of it points to any type of entrapment. No one talked OJ into the actions he made. This is just more of OJ's bullshit that everyone is out to frame him because he is _ _ _ _. Fill in the blank.


Its hard not to be biases I admit, I can't stand him myself, but with his past I can't make much a fuss over very flimsy allegations of a set up. Pretty absurd if you ask me. I suppose the police force composed of people who had nothing to do with the case 13 years ago were sitting around trying to come up with a way to catch OJ using force to get his own stuff back. That sounds completely retarded.

[mfgbypooter]

Thomas Riccio is the one who framed him plain and simple. He said as much in a live Fox news interview after the jury verdict came in.

And Las Vegas police detectives were recorded joking about "getting Simpson" right after the crime during the investigation.

I don't like Simpson either, but this case against him was bullshit.

[Mels_Smileys45]

Whoa! Pump the brakes. Riccio went to the police well in advance to say Simpson wanted to shoot a televised confrontation. This never happened and police are not in the business of monitoring a televised TV production.

Simpson himself NEVER went to police to get any of his memorabilia back and choose to take along his mob to do the job. Simpson planned it from beginning to end. His poor choice in accomplices is what got him nailed, not a cospiracy cooked up by the police. That bird don't fly.

The prior reports to the actual incident points to the fact Simpson was already thinking of doing the job. You can't arrest someone for thinking out loud but you can catch them with their hand in the cookie jar so to speak. Simpson put his own hand in the proverbial jar. Did he or did he not actually do this? Yes, he did. Case closed.

I agree with you.

[Mrs Robinson]

US has-been footballer OJ Simpson should known better than trying the commit the perfect crime (version 2) for the following seven reasons:
1)Your're highly unlikely to get an all black jury in US - so no sympathy there
2)One in three young black US men are behind bars - so not good odds there
3)Both you and Obama are black but that's where the similarity ends - try politics next time
4)You can't act - evidence in Naked Gun series
5)Wrong job - you need need to be on Wall Street to commit the perfect crime as there you get off; the US tax payer bails you out and you still get your bonus ;-)
6)You can fool some of the people all of the time but you can't fool all of the people all the time
7)Finally, you broke the 3 golden rules for a black man in the US by marring a blonde, becoming rich, acting big.

[mfgbypooter]

I never said it was a conspiracy cooked up by the police. Thomas Riccio said as much. And one of the victims, Alfred Beardsley, even testified that he and OJ were set up by Thomas Riccio; so if it weren't for Riccio none of this would have happened.

And Thomas Riccio tipped off the police before hand to what was up but they did nothing and allowed the events to transpire unfettered, knowing full well that no good would come of it.

So the police and prosecution wound up getting lucky by all this, while OJ didn't.

If it would have been any other set of felons pulling the same gangster shit, they would have got slaps on the wrist.
