Why, oh why have I neglected this thread for so long?

OJ gets his book published after all | QUOTE |
But the proposed publication will not benefit Simpson, his family or any of those involved in the original, aborted project.
Instead the rights to the book have been acquired by Goldman's family from a court-appointed trustee.
"Ron Goldman LLC will own Simpson's name, likeness, signature and story and will hawk it to satisfy this terrible judgment. Justice has arrived in Miami," the family's lawyer, David Cook, told the Associated Press. |

How does that make any kind of sense?

Oh Jesus...that sounds like one of David Caruso's lines from CSI: Miami.
Did he whip on some sunglasses and tilt his head oddly as he said this?
But in this case, rather than the Hummer of Justice we only get the White Ford Bronco of "Justice."

The Goldman family is going to publish the book, but under a different title: Confessions of a Double Murderer.
What really disturbs me about OJ writing the book is the fact that his daughter formed the LLC to enable him to earn money from it, and keep it from Goldman. To think that she's actively participating in her father making money off of her mother's murder is just so very unnerving.
IIRC it's Arnelle that set up the corporation. She's not Nicole's daughter, Sydney is, but I agree with you, it's twisted.

Ah, ok - thanks for clearing that up. It makes me feel somewhat better. I guess I didn't realize he had other children.
He has two surviving children from his first marriage, Arnelle and a son. My father-in-law is convinced to this day that the son committed the murders and O.J. covered it up for him. I don't think he has any evidence to support that claim though.

I guess now I won't feel bad about wanting to buy it just to satisfy my curiosity. Everyone go out and buy a copy!
