O.J. Simpson to discuss killings

[Wisdom_Seeker]

LOS ANGELES - Fox plans to broadcast an interview with O.J. Simpson in which the former football star discusses "how he would have committed" the slayings of his ex-wife and her friend, for which he was acquitted, the network said.

The two-part interview, titled "O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How It Happened," will air Nov. 27 and Nov. 29, the TV network said.

 

Simpson has agreed to an "unrestricted" interview with book publisher Judith Regan, Fox said.

 

"O.J. Simpson, in his own words, tells for the first time how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes," the network said in a statement. "In the two-part event, Simpson describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade."

 

The interview will air days before Simpson's new book, "If I Did It," goes on sale Nov. 30. The book, published by Regan, "hypothetically describes how the murders would have been committed."

 

In a video clip on the network's Web site, an off-screen interviewer says to Simpson, "You wrote 'I have never seen so much blood in my life.'"

 

"I don't think any two people could be murdered without everybody being covered in blood," Simpson responds.

 

Simpson, who now lives in Florida, was acquitted in a criminal trial of the 1994 killings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman. Simpson was later found liable in 1997 in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the Goldman family.

 

Messages left with Simpson and his attorney Yale Galanter were not immediately returned

 

 

I guess we will be hearing the 'OJ did it' remark this coming days. LOL

only if Johnny Cochran was alive..he would have murdered O.J himself. after all that he's been taken out of, and now he's back again to pocket some money over a book, leaves me saying, he deserves to be jailed.

O.J Simpson must be embracing the Double jeopardy law. Once the book is released, I will be purchasing it.

Thought I heard in the news today that the publishers are not going ahead with the book and FOX won't be doing the interview anymore. That wound is still fresh in people's head, no need to drudge that up.

"LAS VEGAS — In a city where luck means everything, O.J. Simpson came out the big loser and his unlucky number in a case full of bizarre twists was 13.

 

He was convicted of an armed robbery that happened on Sept. 13 and was found guilty on the 13th anniversary of his Los Angeles murder acquittal. The Las Vegas jury deliberated for 13 hours after a 13-day trial...

 

...Even the stunning verdict came as most of America slept, oblivious to the irony that Simpson might spend the rest of his life in prison for what most perceived as a petty crime, a tussle among dysfunctional middle-aged men."

O.J was totally overcharged in this case. Any normal person would get maybe a year or two in prison, not facing life like he is now for robbery/kidnapping. Sounds like overkill to me!
