Former football player O.J. Simpson could soon be released from
prison. O.J. has been given a parole hearing scheduled for
July 20th that would grant him release on October 1st,
2017.
In 2008 he was found guilty of armed robbery, kidnapping, and
other charges from a confrontation with sport memorabilia dealer
who reportedly had some of his personal mementos that were taken
from him following his 1995 acquittal in the killings of his
ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman in Los
Angeles. These mementos consisted of family photos and other
similar items.
He will appear before the panel through a video conference from
the medium-security prison with which he is being held in, Lovelock
Correctional Center and alongside him will be his lawyer, Malcolm
LaVergne. The panel consists of four parole commissioners.
