Officials Deny O.J. Simpson Prison Beating Rumors
2009-12-08
LAS VEGAS (CBS 5) -- Officials at the Lovelock Correctional Center, 90 miles northeast of Reno in rural northern Nevada, said Simpson remained at the facility and maintained nothing had happened to him.
So he hasn't yet tripped and fallen down elebenteen flights of stairs ...
The popular online Drudge Report and celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton had quoted sources as saying that the 62-year-old Simpson was seriously beaten in what appeared to be a racially-motivated incident. Drudge later removed its posting about Simpson following the denials from corrections officials.
Perez Hilton was just jealous that OJ was getting the attention ...
Authorities at Lovelock have previously said that Simpson works as a gym janitor at the prison facility while serving a sentence for nine to 33 years for kidnapping and assault with a deadly weapon in the gunpoint robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers in a Las Vegas hotel room in September 2007.

Simpson's lawyers are currently appealing his case to justices on the Nevada state Supreme Court and had sought his release from prison while the appeal was considered.

I'm sure he just slipped and fell.

#4  I know this sounds harsh, but quite frankly, if he were severly beaten every morning before breakfast and every evening before sundowners I'd be thoroughly delighted.

According to the prosecution's account of the murders, as Nicole Brown was lying face down, Simpson pulled her head back using her hair, put his foot on her back, and slit her throat, severing her carotid artery.[12] They then argued that Simpson left a "trail of blood" from the condo to his Bronco to his house on Rockingham Drive.

#3  Personally, I admire OJ's dedication to hunting down his wife's killer. After exhaustively searching golf courses across America in vain, he must have found some tip that the perp is already incarcerated under some lesser charge, and he found an excuse to get imprisoned so he can continue the pursuit from within. Now that's dedication!
