Nevada prison official says O.J. Simpson beating report false
Edited on Tue Feb-15-11 04:28 PM by Generic Other
Hours after sources, sparked by a National Enquirer report that O.J.Simpson was severely beaten inside a Nevada prison, officials at Lovelock Correctional Center said the story is untrue Tuesday, Feb. 15.

According to Steve Suwe, a public information officer at the prison, the facility is getting flooded with calls about the report.

Each caller is being told that an incident during which Simpson was kicked, punched and bitten by a member of a Nazi gang never happened.

“Totally bogus," Suwe told the USA Today regarding the validity story "We laughed over that one.”

3. Who to believe?
The National Enquirer has little credibility. But Nevada prison authorities?

6. And how much credibility does OJ have?
Not much with me. He's a proven actor.

7. You call what he did on film "acting"?
:rofl:

On that scale anyone of Bruce Willis' films should be Oscar-worthy...

:rofl:

8. Good point!
I was thinking of the "acting" he did in the courtroom and the stupid robbery with trying to get his stuff back. He's an expert with bad drama IRL.

9. It's interesting that the story didn't get published, even in the NE until three weeks later.
When we can expect him to be fully recovered from his injuries.

I expect that OJ is lying again, because really, if he was hurt, don't you think he'd make sure there were images of the damage ... like everywhere?

10. If it happened, there would be pics
He'd make certain. And since we now know that cons have smuggled cell phones...someone would have sold them to NE by now.
