The right to publish If I Did It by OJ Simpson will be auctioned publicly and the proceeds will go directly to the Ronald L. Goldman family. If a publishing house does not buy the rights, Goldman’s family “will buy it and lock it up” according to the New York Times report.

Via Shelf Awareness.

   by Tina April 10th, 2007 at 10:24 am I would like to say that I dont think OJ should profit from the sale of the book but I dont think all the money should go to the Goldman family I think that is greedy of them to think that they derserve all the money any profit from this book as sick as it may sound should be divided amoung charities, some to the Goldman family, the bulk of it to Nicole’s children who are left without a mother, and none to OJ Simpson who bought his verdict. See everyone has forgotten the Children and I think we need to have another look at the sale of this book I believe the Children should profit, there mother was taken from them regardless of who did it (we all know) they just continue to go on being forgotten. Another point I would like to make is that it goes against all human rights in US to ban or block freedom of speech OJ has a right whether we like it or not to write and say anything he so chooses it is his right just as it is the right of reports and other book writers, it begs to question has any other author been sued for writing about OJ, Nicole or the Goldman family, because really have you pick up some of those books latley, or rented a movie. Criminals have been writing novels and scripts for years and you dont hear of their work being banned all because of public opinion. So everyone needs to keep there opinion quite if OJ or Nicoles KIDS cant speak then neither should we. Besides it is good that OJ is now showing some remorse. Reply
