OJ Simpson: "If I Did it" Book a confession?


As reported by Yahoo! Entertainment:
http://entertainment.tv.yahoo.com/entnew...

Many people are saying that the "hypothetical" book is really a confession, however due to double jeopardy laws, there's no way Simpson could be convicted.

Just like to know what you think of this issue...should we do away with double jeopardy laws, and do you think the book is really a confessional?

No, should not do away with double jeopordy laws. However, if a mob were to storm the Fox studios, take OJ hostage, and then drag him behind a pick up truck, I wouldn't exactly complain.

Just think about this for a second: He needs the money to pay for the law suit that he lost to her parents. Kind of messed up how he's getting the dough, eh?

OJ was investigated and tried before a jury and found innocent of this crime. It's unfair for anyone to blatantly say with a certainty that this man is guilty. The book was theoretical - not a confessional. He has always maintained his innocence. Several attorneys wrote books and made millions. Report It

From what I hear from everyone i know yes it is. Everyone knew he was guilty in the first place.

We should do away with anyone associated with that case still left in the DA's office. That was an easy homicide case; they let it become a circus. OJ walks because the State failed in its job.

yeah - i have always believed he was guilty.... but this book just reassures the fact....doesnt seem fair that he can continue to make money fron what happened (whether he did it or not) and who says crime doesnt pay?

Haven't read it and don't plan to.

He would "clean it up" or change it enough to protect himself from it being a true confession.

The only reason he is participating in this is for attention and money. He still owes the victims' families money so I hope they sue him for every penny he gets from the book, the interview, the tabloid tv shows covering this, the paparazi resuming following him and a proceed of every photo they sell.

To playfully give an interview like this - "I didn't kill them, but IF I did," that is just sick whether he did it or not.

Yes, I think that his new book is an actually confession. I do though don't think that we should get rid of the double jeopardy laws though... they were put there for a reason. Its all about checks and balances....because sometimes the convicted can really be innocent and shouldn't have to go through the whole ordeal of a second trial.

It's for the money. I don't think we should do away with double jeopardy laws, because that would open the door for endless harassment from the courts. And yes, I think O.J. was guilty.

I think this is just a slap to the face of all those involved in trying to get him convicted.

As previously stated "Double Jeopardy" will protect him. However... it shouldn't.

The things people do for money are ridiculous. This book was probably written for Mr. Simpson, not BY him. It takes at least a few iotas of intelligence to write a book.

(Sorry for the ramblings, but this man has already gotten more money and attention then he'll ever deserve)

not sure if he's fessin up, but we all know oj needs money. So i think all of it is for money. what station wouldn't pay oj for an interview that would boost their rating. he knows people will pay, and he knows viewers are gonna watch. why not make money off one of the most famous criminal cases in th u.s.?
