Would you buy OJ Simpsons book?

I just read this:

O.J. Simpson named a suspect in break-in involving sports memorabilia at Las Vegas casino

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Investigators questioned O.J. Simpson and named him a suspect Friday in a break-in at a casino hotel room involving sports memorabilia.

The actor and former football star told The Associated Press he went to the room to get memorabilia that belonged to him, but didn’t break into it.

To coin a phrase: LOL! Yes! They repeated and repeated and repeated that they get SEVENTEEN CENTS A BOOK. Oprah was shocked and said something like that is an awful book deal. Then (I hope I got this right) when Oprah asked where the rest of the money goes Kim Goldman said some would go to the Ronald Goldman Foundation but did not say what that foundation does. There was something else I cannot remember right now. Marcia Clark and Christopher Darden were there and they didn’t get the book thing either. In the end I felt the Goldmans pulled out the last stop and very emotionally said if just ONE woman reads the book and recognizes her plight and escapes her abuser and her life is saved it will all be worth it. Oprah looked into the camera like yes, but you could tell she still didn’t understand. Marcia Clark said she lives with guilt for failing to bring justice for the families and Christopher Darden who Oprah says is “shattered”, said he copes by trying to forget it. A woman in the audience said she dropped out of law school the day the verdict was announced.

I do not understand either why the Goldman family is releasing this book. On Nancy Grace it was said that once the total income from the book goes beyond the settlement due to the Goldmans, the rest of the money will go to Simpson.

I will never buy this book and even if I receive a free copy will not read it. Too much a waste of time. I am surprised it is selling big and it, along with the recent OJ robbery, gives the media an excuse not to focus on Hillary's troubles - a far more interesting story.

As I understand it, the Goldman’s won the rights .. or whatever to the profit from the book and OJ gets Zip.
It’s sold out according to the news today. And yes I would buy it and I would then throw it away having no interest in reading crap written by a socio path but more .. in the interest of giving the Goldman’s my support at the injustice done 13 years ago.
