You know the Bronco chase, the trial and the glove, but do you know …the book? In 2006, O.J. Simpson teamed up with prominent publisher, Judith Regan, to make a killing from his controversial life story. With the help of a ghostwriter, they created a “hypothetical” tell-all book about the actual murders O.J. stood trial for. Thousands of copies were printed and a companion TV special was filmed. But, when news of the unsavory book surfaced, there was an uproar, leading to the cancellation of the project and a grizzly amount of lawsuits. However the story takes a surprising turn when the family of one of the victims earns the right to release the book themselves.
Ericka Bozeman aka Boze (Boze vs the World) and Carl Tart (Comedy Bang! Bang! Grand Crew) join Misha to unpack the story of OJ's book, "If I Did It."
