Tuesday, November 21: Excellent news. Now if only there were a legal way to retry and convict him…
Monday, November 20: Well, what do you now? There’s still decency in the world…

Shameless double-murderer O.J. Simpson will be interviewed on the Fox network on November 27 and 29 to publicize his new book, If I Did It, Here’s How It Happened.
It’s supposed to be a hypothetical scenario of how he would have killed his second ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ronald Goldman if he’d killed them. Why the hell…???
A dumb book written by a dumb man. 
On June 12, 1994, the former NFL football player actually killed Brown and Goldman. All evidence pointed to Simpson, including the blood trail, but his jury couldn’t follow the evidence and the logic and ended up freeing a man who slaughtered the mother of his children. In my opinion, another reason they let him go was because they didn’t like lead prosecutor Marcia Clark or his ex-wife Brown. Care to guess why?
The civil trial, on the other hand, was brilliant, as was the lawyer who tried the case, Daniel Petrocelli. On February 4, 1997, a jury found Simpson liable for the deaths of Brown and Goldman and ordered him to pay the families $33.5 million in compensatory and punitive damages.
So far, the families have received less than half a million.
Thanks to Petrocelli and a smart jury, Simpson is under civil judgment. Question for lawyers in the audience: Will proceeds from his dumb book belong to the Brown and Goldman families?
