O.J. Simpson to confess — hypothetically

O.J. Simpson is confessing. Hypothetically, that is.
The former football great, who was acquitted in criminal court 11 years ago of killing his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, reportedly has been paid a whopping $3.5 million to write about the double murder that shocked and riveted the nation in 1994, according to a detailed report in the new National Enquirer.
But Simpson is not actually confessing to the murder — rather, he’s writing a “hypothetical” book — which the Enquirer reports is tentatively being called “If I Did It.”
The early part of the book tells how Simpson fell in love with Nicole and how the marriage collapsed, reports the tab. He goes on, according to the article, to describe in gruesome detail the killing of his ex-wife and Goldman; he stipulates that the murder scenes are “hypothetical.” But, notes the tab, the descriptions are “so detailed and so chillingly realistic” that readers are left with little doubt as to what really happened.
Simpson can never be retried for the murders because of double jeopardy laws, according to the Enquirer, which also claims that Simpson aims to keep any book money instead of paying it out in a civil suit judgment against him by spending it all quickly.

What's the point? Goldman's going to grab that $3.5 million before it gets anywhere near O.J.

Goldman's going to grab that $3.5 million before it gets anywhere near O.J.One can only hope, as Goldman hasn't seen a dime of the civil judgment to date.

Simpson, who has not paid any of the civil judgment, argues that, because he has permanently severed ties with the state, California courts have no jurisdiction over his right of publicity.

If I read it, I would probably say that he was guilty.

Right, it takes this book to convince anyone that OJ murdered his wife and Goldman.

I guess the Goldman family will get that advance?

Is there a chapter in the book about his relationship with Cato Caylin...maybe titled 'If I Corn-holed Him'?

Gee OJ's book sounds a lot like Clinton's "autobiography" - redefining the meaning of is.

...rather, he’s writing a “hypothetical” book... This must be a phenomenal undertaking...especially for an imbecile who is incapable of writing a simple sentence.

Damn MSNBC is gullible. So who is the publisher that is paying $3.5 million? For some strange reason it doesn't say.
