Early release from Prison in early October likely
NEVADA (TIP): A Nevada parole board, on July 20, unanimously granted O.J. Simpson early release from the Lovelock Correctional Center. The former football star could be free as soon as October 1.
Simpson, 70, has served nine years of a nine-to-33-year prison sentence for the 2007 armed robbery and kidnapping in Las Vegas.
“Are you humbled by this incarceration?” Simpson was asked by a member of the parole board.
“I wish this never would have happened,” he replied, adding later: “I am sorry that things turned out the way they did.”
The board told Simpson his 1995 acquittal wouldn’t be a factor in its decision.
On Thursday, he told the parole board: “I’ve done my time. I’ve done it as well and as respectfully as I think anybody can … I want to get back to my kids.”
