O.J. Simpson

He’s going to get parole. Parole in the state of Nevada is really based on how you behave in prison, and by all accounts he’s been a model prisoner.

— Yale Galanter, the attorney who represented O.J. Simpson during the former NFL star’s 2008 robbery and kidnapping trial, where he was found guilty and sentenced to nine years in prison, commenting on his client’s chances of getting parole. The parole board will issue a decision on Thursday, and it will be streamed live thanks to all of the media attention. In case you’ve forgotten, Simpson was acquitted of the murders of his ex-wife and her friend in 1995.
