O.J. Simpson Book To Be Published
Ten years after O.J. Simpson declared that he won’t work to pay the $33.5 million judgment against him for the death of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown, and Ronald Goldman, Simpson’s been proven a liar once again.
Simpson’s book, “If I Did It” was initially scheduled for a November 2006 release, but stalled when the corporation that cut the deal with Harper Collins filed for bankruptcy.
The corporation, Lorraine Brooke Associates, Inc., was initially set up to provide Simpson’s children with income from his book — a move many bankruptcy attorneys predicted would be insufficient to circumvent the civil judgment against Simpson. The move was, as one judge noted, little more than a “sham” designed to defraud Simpson’s creditors: namely, Goldman’s family.
In June, a federal bankruptcy judge said that Fred Goldman, father of Ron Goldman, could sue for the publishing rights to Simpson’s book, including the $900,000 advance Simpson received prior to the book’s withdrawal from the market. Goldman was represented by his own bankruptcy attorney in that proceeding.
As of today, Simpson’s book is now officially set for publication. Details are expected to be released later today.
Gossip site TMZ — which obtained a copy of Simpson’s manuscript in June — has posted a chilling excerpt of the allegedly “fictional” work in which O.J. explains how he would have committed the two murders for which he still claims innocence.

I’d consider buying a copy of If I Did It if I could be assured that any monetary proceeds would go to the Goldman and Brown families, and not a penny to that murderous bastard.
I’m pretty certain that’s going to be the result: he’s declared bankruptcy, and a judge has found his book deal was an effort to defraud creditors, so I don’t think a dime will go toward him.
I’d be willing to contribute toward his appointment with Dr. Kevorkian, though.
No. Kevorkian believes in a death with dignity to end suffering.
Simpson deserves nothing less than to be driven penniless into the streets, publicly branded as the sadistic, lying, manipulative waste of oxygen he truly is, there to be forgotten as though he never lived at all.
I grabbed a copy of the pdf file of that book off the net sometime ago.
It’s very tough to read when you think about who is narrating the “story”.
