If I Did It
Released September, 2007
The Pros:Proceeds go to Goldman family and the Ron Goldman foundation. It is all about money. Not Ron. The title of this book is high comedy.
The Cons:In bad taste. EASILY available for free from the Internet. O.J. Simpson might be the worst guy ever for agreeing to do this book.
If I Did It is a book written by O.J. Simpson about how he, hypothetically, would've killed his ex-wife Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman. This was a hugely publicized criminal case in which the former NFL star was acquitted, but subseqently was found financially liable in a civil wrongful death trial.

The Goldman family appeared on Oprah on September 13th, 2007 promoting the book that will soon hit shelves. The Goldman family acquired the book as part of restitution of in the aforementioned civil court case because O.J. had failed to make all of his payments on the 33.5M lawsuit. The Goldman family added some chapters of their own and will profit from its sale. They say the money will go towards their court fees and the Ron Goldman Foundation.

#if_i_did_it One minute he didn't want the book published and then when he found out he would make the money off it Goldman ran for the court room. It isn't weird the man wants money and he doesn't care how he gets it even using his dead child to get it. He is as bad as OJ.

#if_i_did_it I agree with Erik, although I guess they figure they might as well. Or maybe it's just to rub it in because it was OJ's intention to make money and now the Goldman's are getting it instead of him.

#if_i_did_it I admit, I'm not too polarized on my opinion. I just feel that it seems a little strange to be receiving proceeds from the "how i murdered your family member" book. It's definitely better that the Goldman's are getting the money over OJ, that's for sure, but it's still a little weird in my eyes.

#if_i_did_it Isn't 'for profit' acceptable as the profits are going to the victim's family???
While I wouldn't go out of my way to find a copy, if one happened to be in front of me, I admit I would flip through it.

#if_i_did_it I think this book is in bad taste. Bad taste for OJ to write it, and bad taste to release it to the public for profit.
