RadioOnFire.com - O.J. Simpson made his case and the parole board has ruled to grant him freedom. He could be leaving the Lovelock Correctional Center as early as October 2017.
Victim impact went a long way in this hearing. Forgiveness is a powerful thing and it seems as if O.J. Simpson is getting another chance at life outside of the prison walls.
Presenting himself as a family man who has missed dozens of his children's birthdays while he's been behind bars and a devout Christian who has "basically spent a conflict-free life," he pleaded his case Thursday before four members of the Nevada Board of Parole.
The board pointedly asked him why he had participated in the 2008 armed robbery in a Las Vegas hotel room and seemed to be looking for signs of contrition from the former football star and TV pitchman — but it took Simpson more than an hour to finally utter "I'm sorry."
