About this listen

In 1994, Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson were brutally murdered at her home in Brentwood, California. O. J. Simpson was tried for the crime in a case that captured the attention of the American people, but he was ultimately found not guilty of criminal charges. The victims' families brought civil cases against Simpson, in which he was found liable for willfully and wrongfully causing the deaths of Ron and Nicole by committing battery with malice and oppression.

In 2006, HarperCollins announced the publication of a book in which O. J. Simpson told how he hypothetically would have committed the murders. In response to public outrage that Simpson stood to profit from these crimes, HarperCollins canceled the book. A Florida bankruptcy court awarded the rights to the Goldmans in August 2007 to partially satisfy the unpaid civil judgment, which has risen, with interest, to over $38 million.

The Goldman family views this book as Simpson's confession, and has worked hard to ensure that the public will read or listen to this book and learn the truth. This audiobook was produced from the original manuscript approved by O. J. Simpson, with additional insight from the Goldman Family, Pablo F. Fenjves, and Dominick Dunne.

Go Juice.

I hadn’t realised Nicole Brown Simpson was so messed up.
RG seemed to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Pity the killer was never caught/tried/convicted.
I’m further convinced of OJ’s innocence.

Good book after Netflix binge

having seen the people vs OJ on Netflix, I was doing a little digging and came across this book. its a little self righteous but I think I was expecting that anyway.

Bizarre doesn't come close!

I echo the other reviewers - what possessed him to do this?!

What follows is hardly a 'spoiler' incidentally!

Obviously his (no doubt airbrushed) side of the story but how can you 'hypothosise' about how the murders took place in the first person and in such detail?!

OJ you were either there or you were not!

Two interesting points which I cannot help but mention.

Firstly I have worked in this field (in the UK) and it is true murderers do often say someone (who is never identified) was with them. Often the Defendant seeks to transfer the blame to that person and minimises their own role in a crime. Here, however, OJ does the exact opposite and what do you make of that - I don't know where to start?!

Secondly he started talking about Nicole's chaotic lifestyle, drugs and unsavoury friends. Here we go, I thought, he is setting it up for one of those to be the real murderer. Note, however, that there was no mention of this in the transcript of the first interview that he gave to the Police. At that stage he had had some preliminary legal advice and (in my experience) it is inconceivable that he would not have mentioned that at the time if it was genuine.

Sorry OJ I don't buy it. A good book, very interesting, but if it was designed to set the record straight and 'prove' your innocence it has backfired.

Interesting listen

I think the Goldman family are exceptionally brave for handling this the way they did.
The killer is a deluded egomaniac. I thought the chapters from Kim Goldman, Pablo F. Fenjves and Dominick Dunne were most interesting and changed the tone of this book and it’s message.

Utterly mind blowing

Hats off to the Goldmans for publishing this clear confession, its the most damning evidence of his guilt. The narrator sounds EXACTLY like the killer, making it all the more bone chilling. Fascinating insight into a very very sick mind.

very slow going

of course the subject matter means it should be demure and respectful, but it feels really slow going and monotone. turned off after one chapter as just not feeling it.
