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 was ultimately acquitted of criminal charges. The victims' families brought a civil case against Simpson, which found him liable for willfully and wrongfully causing the deaths of Ron and Nicole 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 satisfy the civil judgment in part. The Goldman family views the book as his confession, and has worked hard to ensure that the public will read this book and learn the truth. This is O.J. Simpson's original manuscript, approved by him, with up to 14,000 words of additional key commentary.

I DID it! (not "IF I Did It") Such a page-turner!
If I
Did
It:
Confessions
of the
Killer
I read this book and I couldn't believe how good it was. It simply, in my opinion, is OJ admitting that he did in fact commit this crime, and also HOW he committed it, down to the tiniest detail. There's no 2 ways of seeing it, in my eyes. I always knew, like the rest of the world, that he was guilty as hell, and now I know it and it's because of his own admission in a twisted, scared to come right-out and say-it, kind of way! This author did a good job interviewing Simpson, and getting him to basically admit what he did that night in Brentwood. I am very glad that the Goldman family took over this project like they did, however they had to come about it; they deserve owning title to this book, as maybe they will recap some of their legal loss. The Brown family chose not to partake; to each their own. I'm just glad OJ doesn't own rites to this book! How dare he make a dime off of Nicole and Ron's deaths. This is another excellent True Crime book that goes in my library! And of course, NOW - since OJ screwed up again - in Vegas this time, not Cali, he is certainly where he belongs, but it sure took long enough!!! I say karma is alive and well.

IF I READ IT!!!
I never wanted to read it. I swore I never would. He would get NO attention from me! He gives himself enough attention as it is. This has been the biggest miscarriage of justice I have seen in my lifetime! This is how I felt.
Then one day recently I was watching Dr Phil. There was Fred and Kim Goldman. I had watched when they were on Oprah and people were hating on them for wanting to get this thing published. There was a battle between the Goldmans and the Browns about the whole issue.
This time I felt different. Here they were again. Years later and they were still fighting for their lost son. They never seem to give up this fight against this poor excuse of a man. There is Ron, whose life was wasted, and there is the
killer
, whose life is a waste.
I gave this book five stars because I WANT YOU TO READ IT! I want you to understand why it has to be sold. Why the Goldmans HAVE TO do this.
Trust me, you'll get nauseous, you'll feel anger, bitterness, resentment and sorrow.
Trust me, when he is telling his "story" you'll hear over and over again how he was a great husband, ex-husband, father, friend, lover, athlete and, if you read between the lines you'll hear him tell you how he was a great murderer. He also tells you how screwed up Nicole was, how she slept around,
did
drugs, was a bad influence on his kids('but she was a great mother'), how she had a real bad temper, how she was the abuser in the relationship, how he gave her a wonderful life, and on and on. Over and over again in his own words, you can hear how wonderful he is and how she messed it all up for them. The only thing I don't think I heard him repeat while telling his story was the word "hypothetical". He said it one time. Right before he describes what HE DID that night. Reading his story was just plain sickening to me. I had to keep putting it down because I was angry. He even goes so far as to say that the painstaking Bronco ride took less than an hour. This guy is so full of it and lives in a world of his own. I feel sorry for anyone who enters that world.
But the rest of this book explains so much about why it must be sold and purchased by all of us. I truly understand why the Browns feel the way they do about this book. But really it only confirms that he is an idiot. As far as it hurting the family and the children, the killer did that already in the worse possible way and that bell cannot be un-rung.
Sell the book and let them reap some of the benefits. He certainly isn't now nor has he in the past, ever put their best interest first.

He DID it!
If I ever had any doubts about whether OJ was guilty or not, I sure don't have any now. There is NO question that this guy murdered those two innocent people. I am not an avid book reader, but I honestly could not put this book down. The Goldmans should be commended for not giving up in their pursuit of OJ and justice for Ron. At the time of the murders, I had a son the same age as Ron Goldman and who was also a waiter. I often thought, what if my son was doing a customer a favor and ended up dead by the hands of a jealous husband. I don't know if my grief would let me be as relentless as the Goldmans in seeking justice. I'm so glad that by purchasing this book, the money is going to the Goldman Family and the Ron Goldman Foundation.

Glad they got the rights!
I think OJ
did
it, I am glad they perserved, even though they got some bad press.....all of us know he did it, only the jury voted diffrently...Im glad they explained all the legal process, and the judge telling them to print it.
Good Job Goldmans!
