If I Did It: The Controversial Book by O.J. Simpson

Eleven years after being acquitted of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, O.J. Simpson wrote a book titled “I Did It.” This article explores the story behind the controversial book.

O.J. Simpson’s Acquittal and Financial Liability

Although O.J. Simpson was found not guilty of the criminal charges in 1995, he was later found financially liable for the deaths in a civil trial. As a result, he has always had outstanding debts to the victims’ families.

In 2006, in an attempt to generate income, Simpson decided to write a book, titled “If I Did It.” The premise of the book was quite intriguing – Simpson claimed he didn’t commit the murders, but if he did, he outlined how and why he would have done it.

The Public’s Revolt

Unsurprisingly, the public was revolted by the idea of O.J. Simpson profiting from a book about a crime he was acquitted of. Due to the public outcry, all four hundred thousand copies of the book were destroyed.

A Twist in Bankruptcy Court

However, a year later, in a bankruptcy court, it was ruled that O.J. Simpson still owed money to the Goldman family. The court decided to give the family the rights to the book as an asset to help satisfy the outstanding debt.

The Goldman family, who have always believed in Simpson’s guilt, published the book. The cover was deliberately designed to resemble the original title, “I Did It,” even though the actual title remained “If I Did It.”

In this way, the Goldman family made it clear that they were not accusing Simpson of the crime, but rather presenting a speculative scenario based on his own words.

Despite the public’s distress and the destruction of the initial copies, “If I Did It” eventually saw the light of day. The book became a controversial testament to the legal and financial aftermath of one of the most infamous murder trials in history.
