    O.J. to discuss killings of wife, friend in TV interviewAssociated Press


    LOS ANGELES -- Fox plans to broadcast an interview with O.J. Simpson in which the former football star discusses "how he would have committed" the slayings of his ex-wife and her friend, for which he was acquitted, the network said.

    The two-part interview, titled "O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How It Happened," will air Nov. 27 and Nov. 29, the TV network said.

    Simpson has agreed to an "unrestricted" interview with book publisher Judith Regan, Fox said.

    "O.J. Simpson, in his own words, tells for the first time how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes," the network said in a statement. "In the two-part event, Simpson describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade."

    The interview will air days before Simpson's new book, "If I Did It,'' goes on sale Nov. 30. The book, published by Regan, "hypothetically describes how the murders would have been committed."

    In a video clip on the network's Web site, an off-screen interviewer says to Simpson, "You wrote, 'I have never seen so much blood in my life.' "

    "I don't think any two people could be murdered without everybody being covered in blood," Simpson responds.

    Simpson, who now lives in Florida, was acquitted in a criminal trial of the 1994 killings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman. Simpson was later found liable in 1997 in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the Goldman family.

    Messages left with Simpson and his attorney Yale Galanter were not immediately returned.

    John Surratt was the co-leader/planner of the plot to kidnap/kill President Lincoln along with John Wilkes Booth. He escaped to Europe where he worked as a Vatican Guard, even as the Federal Government hanged his mother for the crime. When he was finally caught and returned for trial, there was a hung jury and the charges were dropped. He then went around lecturing to huge audiences about how the plotters had pulled off the Crime of the Century...

    Is this a great country or what?

    Did he get a Bruin to ghost write this for him or does USC have a new 'applied theoretical crayon usage' program?</t>

    I see where Surrat's story was that he was part of the kidnap plot but the he had no part of the assination plot. Fortunate for him he was in NY the day Lincoln was killed and got out of the country before they could find him.
