OJ Simpson set to walk free 24 years early to enjoy pension millions
A parole board hearing scheduled for the week beginning July 3 – six days before his 70th birthday – is expected to recommend his release, based on good behaviour.
Experts believe the board will vote to release the fallen sports star at the earliest possible date of October 3.
It would be nine years to the day after he was sentenced to 33 years for a string of charges, including armed robbery and kidnapping.
n 1995, Simpson was sensationally cleared of the brutal stabbing murders of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman in the so-called “Trial of the Century”.
Yesterday, an ex-business partner who visits him regularly at medium-security Lovelock Correctional Centre in Nevada declared: “He’s convinced he’ll be coming out this fall and is counting down the days to his hearing like a kid waiting for Christmas.”
Former American Football hero and NFL Hall of Fame star Simpson – prisoner number 1027820 – has suffered a string of medical setbacks at the remote desert jail, including diabetes and a severe bone infection.
But Simpson, who enjoyed a successful Hollywood acting career in the Naked Gun comedy films after hanging up his boots, is virtually certain to spark fresh outrage when he leaves Lovelock.
US magazine Sports Illustrated claims he has amassed a new fortune while sitting in his shared 125sq ft cell thanks to his huge NFL pension, which reportedly pays him almost £20,000 every month.
That adds up to £240,000 a year and will amount to a £2.16million fortune by the time of his anticipated release.
Under America’s Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the pension cannot be touched by creditors, despite Simpson owing almost £27million.
That was the then-record damages award set in February 1997 by a civil jury that found him liable for the wrongful deaths of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.
But the Goldman and Brown families say they have seen a “mere fraction” of their award from the civil case.
A source close to the Goldmans said yesterday: “They have vowed to pursue him to the ends of the earth and will continue to do so after he walks out of prison.
“His nightmare might be coming to an end, but theirs never will.”
On October 3, 2008, Simpson was found guilty of kidnapping and robbing at gunpoint a sports memorabilia dealer in a Las Vegas hotel room.
The dealer had, Simpson claimed, stolen a stash of his personal NFL mementos.
To win his freedom, Simpson will need release recommendations from at least four of the seven commissioners at the hearing, which also relies on a complex points system.
Simpson is expected to represent himself.
His chances are good, according to Las Vegas criminal defence attorney Daniel Hill, who has acted on behalf of several Lovelock inmates.
“He’s the kind of person who gets paroled,” he said.
“He has done a significant amount of time and, by all accounts, hasn’t caused any problems.”

Good for The Juice..if this is true
-
Needs to make a life somewhere other than America, and talk all the ? he wants from there.
Obviously's never going to be left alone here. -
Good. He was acquitted in the court of law.
He didnt ? that ? ...
He had her killed. Hitman. -
Good news for him however he's a bonehead and is highly liable to do some stuff that lands him right back in hot water.
When he beat those charges in the mid 90s he should have bought him some land in a foreign country or something and rode out into the sunset.
He kept doing silly ish until those White folks got him caught up. -
I'm throwing him a party

? Orenthalls eternal soul
1. O.J. was elated in 1969 when he heard a white woman say, “There’s O.J. sitting with all those n***ers.”
O.J.’s desire to consider himself beyond race is a prevalent theme throughout the documentary, but never more so than in an anecdote provided by Robert Lipsyte, a prominent sports journalist and a former ESPN ombudsman. Lipsyte recalled going to Joe Namath’s bar, Bachelors III, with O.J. and Howard Cosell in June 1969. There, O.J. told him about a wedding he attended in which he sat at a table of mostly black attendees.
“He overheard a white woman at the next table saying, ‘Look, there’s O.J. sitting with all those n***ers,’” Lipsyte said. “I remember in my naiveté, saying to O.J., ‘Gee, wow, that must have been terrible for you.’ And he said, ‘No. it was great don’t you understand? She knew that I wasn’t black. She saw me as O.J.”
“At that moment, I thought he was ? ,” Lipsyte added. -
^^ wtf??!

Fake news.
Or at the very least, a misleading thread title.
The parole board being "expected to recommend his release" doesn't necessarily mean it's going to happen.
Let's wait to see what happens in July. -
OJ not considering himself black sounds familiar. I don't remember.
-
The thread title is hilarious. That Boy is never getting out of jail.
-
Getting out early AND get paid? The white feelings will be great with this one lol.
-
This is a good thing. Because, their are ass loads of white folks making a killing off of him right now.
-
Now they can keep his name out his mouth
-
I'm Still Mad Courtney Vance Got Robbed At The Emmy's

-

-
Good. He was acquitted in the court of law.

Aye man, I'm all for stickin it to white america.... But it's been 22 years.... That ? did it bruh. -
Nah. On top of no forensic evidence, the 2 victims had Columbian neckties... that's the mark of a professional -

It won't do him any good because.......besides his pension.........any money he makes goes directly to the Goldman family until the entire amount of the civil suit settlement is satisfied. -
Free Juice
