Journal Entry 1 by Jebbie74 from Oshawa, Ontario Canada on Friday, December 21, 2007
In 1994, Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson were brutally murdered at her home in Brentwood, california. OJ Simpson was tried for the crime in a case that captured the attention of the American people, but was ultimately found not guilty of criminal charges. The victims' families brought civil cases against Simpson, in which he was found liable for willfully abd 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 OJ 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 judgement, which has risen, with interest, to over $38 million.

The Goldman family views this book as his confession, and has worked hard to ensure that the public will read this book and learn the truth. This is the original manuscript approved by OJ Simpson, with additional insight from the Goldman Family, Pablo F Fenjves, and Dominick Dunne.

Journal Entry 2 by Jebbie74 from Oshawa, Ontario Canada on Friday, December 21, 2007
I have just a few quick comments on this book. And other than these comments I strongly urge you to read this one.

1) We all know the bastard did it. Even in his own words he can't deny it and I hope he has a hard time sleeping at night. (Although, since he is again in jail for charges in Las Vegas was it? he should be sleeping rough!)

2) I have a lot of pity for what the Goldman family had to go through once their son was killed. But did they have to whine about it for such a long amount of pages in the foreward? It truly did not do them any justice and only helped to put them in a poor light.
