The Juice could be loose, again.
Via Andrew Blankstein and Daniella Silva of NBC News, Hall of Fame running back O.J. Simpson will have a parole hearing in July.
He has served nine years of a 33-year sentence on charges arising from a
bungled effort to reclaim memorabilia that he believed was stolen from
him.
Some contend the Nevada justice system threw the book at Simpson due
to the perception that he got away with a double murder in California,
with the alleged killing of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown, and Ronald
Goldman.
The key question regarding Simpson’s potential freedom will be
whether and to what extent discretion may be exercised by the parole
board. That discretion will allow anyone who thinks he should be serving
life without parole for the 1994 killings to justify keeping him behind
bars for more of that 33-year term.
