Full Title: OJ Simpson could be released on parole as early as OCTOBER and looks set to cash in on multi-million NFL pension

OJ Simpson may be released from prison as early as this October, after serving nine years of his 33-year sentence.

October 1 is the earliest possible parole date the 69-year-old former NFL star.

It is expected that a parole board will recommend his release due to good behavior, the Sunday Express reported.

Simpson has been serving a nine-year sentence at Lovelock Correctional Center in rural Nevada.

He was found guilty in 2008 of 12 counts including kidnapping, robbery and assault with a deadly weapon.

Simpson and accomplices robbed memorabilia collectors Alfred Beardsley and Bruce Fromong of nearly 800 items in a Las Vegas hotel room in November 2007, Sports Illustrated reported.

He alleged the pair had stolen items from him.

Simpson receives as much as $25,000 monthly, $300,000 yearly, or $2.7m throughout his prison stay, from his NFL pension.

He testified in the murder trial that he had severe arthritis and could barely move to be the killer. He'd fit right in on Dancing with the Stars.

Old Football Injuries and Arthritis Hobbled Simpson, Doctor Testifies

A doctor who examined O. J. Simpson twice in the days after Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald L. Goldman were killed testified today that although Mr. Simpson had the "physique of Tarzan," a "whole array of the typical post-N.F.L. injury syndromes" and two kinds of arthritis left him slow of foot, even hobbling.

>He’s a psychopath.

He’s not. There’s zero signs that he was psychopath behavior earlier in his life. However, he’s got poor time preferences and anger issues from years of concussions in the NFL.

The story the prosecution told at the OJ trial was wrong and it’s one of the major reasons OJ got off. I listened to the whole trial back in the day and Marsha Clark admitted that the knife might have come from Nicole kitchen a few years ago which rather changes the story of the murder.

Here’s what I think happened: OJ showed up at Nicole Brown Simpson place because Nicole wouldn’t let OJ see his kids despite a court order. Nicole got angry and sliced at OJ’s hand with a kitchen knife(That’s how his blood ended up at the scene) to try to drive him off. OJ snapped and killed her. Ron Goldman was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Rage killing the woman who’s keeping your kids from you and then killing a witness is the type of stuff that happens not infrequently but it’s generally followed up by the father killing himself when he realizes what he did, which if you remember from the white Bronco incident is something that came close to happening.

All in all, I liked the guy personally.

Great story. Sociopaths tend to be very charismatic.

He is just like the many other vets I have served with who killed people in war - he has the AIR about him.

That's an interesting statement.

The AIR of a killer?

I find that comparison BS, he never served.

I also had to kill in war but don't consider myself a killer, just doing what you had to do.

Perhaps I'm just misjudging what you meant.

Watch for him on Dancing With The Stars.

According to OJ, his knees have almost crippled him.

Re read and note I did not say he served, I only made the comparison that his personality is exactly like us hard charging paratroopers, special ops, etc., and those like myself which I served with.

Thank you for your service and hope you don't have the dreams I do.
