O.J. Simpson to Discuss Killings

O.J. Simpson to Discuss Killings

In a new TV interview and book, O.J. Simpson discusses how he would have committed the slayings of his ex-wife and her friend "if I did it."

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

"This is an interview that no one thought would ever happen. Its the definitive last chapter in the Trial of the Century," Mike Darnell, executive vice president of alternative programming for Fox, said in a statement.

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

The book is published by ReganBooks, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers run by Regan.
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 returned Tuesday night.

Ummmm...
Seriously... after doing an interview such as this who in the world is going to believe he didn't do it? How crude and tacky this is. Obviously he does not take his own childrens wellbeing into consideration. I cannot imagine how devestating this is for them to hear. We all know he's the one that murdered Nicole and Ron. I still remember where I was the day the verdict was read. It was during 5th period Health class w/ this black coach who couldn't pronounce my name correctly. He always called me Garfield. I was in the dungeon classroom and no one wanted to leave to go to lunch because of the verdict. All the TV's were on in the entire school. As soon as the verdict was read all of the 1000+ black students went tearing through the school. They were on top of the lunch room tables and going bananas. I think that day was the first time I was actually scared to be white. I'll never forget the fear I felt being this 15 year old girl in a classroom w/ only 3 other white students and the black people going off on us and going nuts. I guess it's a memory I'll never forget just like those who remember where they were when JFK was shot.
