Description
If I Did It: Confessions of the Killer is a book that has sparked intense public debate and controversy. In 1994, the brutal murders of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson at her home in California led to a highly publicised trial for O.J. Simpson, who was ultimately acquitted of criminal charges. However, the victims' families brought a civil case against him, which found him liable for the deaths. Twelve years later, the rights to a book in which O.J. Simpson revealed how he would have committed the murders were awarded to the Goldman family by a Federal Court Judge. The book was originally written by O.J. Simpson, but after public outcry, HarperCollins cancelled its publication. The Goldman family then published a new edition of the book, which includes essays written by members of the Goldman family and others who were involved in the case. This new edition provides a unique insight into the events leading up to the book's publication and the subsequent court proceedings.
