If I Did It
Will there be ANY way to get a copy of this book? I, for one, am very curious and pretty pissed off that the damn thing has been censored.

1. Welcome Tony ....
Don't have an idea if you can obtain a copy or not. Which publishing house is it? Perhaps you'll see a contraband copy on E-Bay.
Seriously, though - won't be a book on my 'must read' list.
Good luck.

2. Thanks Bullwinkle...
I figure if the Juice wants to explain how this ill shit happened, I for one would like to hear it. I've been to Bundy, been to Rockingham, all those spots. I'd like to know where the hell he might have parked the vehicle, how NOBODY on this fairly busy street didn't see or hear something odd. Curiosity killed the cat. But satisfaction brought him back.
Thanks again for the welcome!

10. The publisher will probably sue anyone with a copy
They own all copies and any copy out there is considered stolen material.

From "Shelf Awareness" newsletter...

We had hoped never to write again about O.J. Simpson and If I Did It, but if we didn't, we'd miss apparent confirmation of one of the many questionable aspects of a questionable project. Over the weekend, Simpson told the AP that he participated in the book and TV interview solely for personal profit, which he called "blood money," and said that the book was not a confession, which is how publisher Judith Regan had justified the work. The AP quoted him telling a Florida radio station, "I made it clear from the first day I met the writer that I wasn't involved. I said, 'I have nothing to confess.' "

A few copies of If I Did It are showing up for sale, but HarperCollins is working to keep them from being listed, saying that all titles are Harper property and will be considered stolen.

11. There was one on Ebay a few days ago...
...that was up to about $20,000, though I assume it's been pulled by now. My guess is that the text will show up on the web some day, in one form or another.

Love your username, btw. :)

15. Do you really want to put money
in that creeps pocket by buying his book? He doesn't deserve to get any recognition or attention for any lies he want to tell.

18. I've blown alot of money
over the years and am sure alot of it has ended up in more nefarious places than Juices pockets. I have never given any thought to where my money ended up. I now have got somethign interesting to contemplate! But hell yeah, I'd buy the damn think. The damage is done. The victims ain't gonna get any deader (is that a word?)

19. Why should the killer
get any richer? Why should the killer get any more of the attention he seems to crave?

And as far as the damage already being done: Many killers keep killing for the notoriety it gives them. They are encouraged by it.
