there's a lot of digression in the parole board. one thing we heard today. there's a lot of people saying he's going to get paroled. pretty confident he's going to get paroled based on his prison record. based on the fact that he has expressed remorse. and especially since you have a unique situation here. you have a victim of the crime advocating for his release. so that's something. but one thing he didn't do that we learned today is these programs that he promised to complete in his 2013 parole hearing, he didn't complete all of them, and it's now 2017. so that's certainly a factor that the parole board is going to take under consideration. trish: why would they want to give him parole, gregg? >> well, they might want to get rid of him. this has brought unwanted attention to the state of nevada, you know, and it's going to happen every time he comes up for parole, which would be a regular event. lots of media attention, and they receive continuing criticism that the trial judge was too harsh during the sentencing, giving him up to 33 years behind bars. but

parole the san francisco football legendwho went from fameto notorietyto a nevada prison cell. we are now a matter of hours from seeing o.j. simpson back in the spot light.... in front of a parole board. he's arguing why nevada state parole commissioners should release him from prison. "the juice"...has been behind bars on armed robbery charges for eight and a half years. he was sentenced to a maximum 33 years, minimum nine years for his role in an armed robbery case that happened in a las vegas hotel back in 2007....involving sports memorbilia. while many have their mind made up about simpson's crimes ...past and present...the parole board...has no idea what they are going to do. (sot) the parole board i can assure you has not already made up their mind on what they're going to do they're going to listen to what mr simpson has to say if the victim is here they're going to listen to that they're going to review any reports from the prison any reports mr. simpson has if he is paroled.any disciplinary action that he has had. o.j simpson will be talking with the board through a video confernce call. the hearing is expected to take about an hour. (grant) and stay right here for extensive

and we heard from the head of that parole board that there would be some conditions attached to this parole. you're quite familiar with parole there in nevada. what can you tell us about these conditions and what we will likely see? >> the parole board did what they said they were going to do. she said it was important for them to be consistent and that's what happened. and i understand the passion and bias that people bring to o.j. simpson, but the parole board made a conscious decision to follow the statute. they had a risk factor list that they used, and i thought it was a for gone conclusion from the very beginning that they would follow that list and grant mr. simpson his release on the part october 1st. >> john q. kelly, you're still with us here. i want to come back to something that you said earlier. have you decided, has the estate decided whether they are going to take any additional action to try and secure any of the millions? >> craig, the estate has never taken any action except for like a month after the civil judgment was entered. we executed for the estate on rocking

simpson goes before the nevada parole board. the man who tried to send him to jail for double murder says he expects the hall of famer will go free. >> i like the photographs of o.j. in handcuffs more than i like the photographs of o.j. with the golf club in his hand. i think he has a lot to account for. and, you know, we have yet to extract from him, you know, the punishment he deserves. >>> good day, everyone. i'm andrea mitchell in colorado at the aspen security conference, where current and former national security officials have been rocked by the shocking medical news about their friend, john mccain. the senate legend and war hero now facing a new fight, a brain cancer diagnosis discovered after a surgical procedure to remove a blood clot above the senator's eye. friends, family, colleagues, former presidents, and political rivals all united in support for arizona's six term senator, sending their love and support through social media and the halls of his home away from home, the u.s. senate. >> he's a tough guy. wants to b

he's shameless. >> we're waiting for the parole board to come back in. sure enough to the letter, here comes the parole board. if we switch to the split screen. the parole board is coming in. let's keep listening to o.j., watch for reaction. >> kind of like president trump. trump gets two scoops, everyone else gets one. something like that. something ridiculous. >> i swear i wanted to say that. i talked with them again. just the lies i get all the time. if i had taken stuff from all the guys about that, you know. mike tyson couldn't do that. seriously. six feet under. >> you guys, i may say something publicly after that. i'm glad i have you on here. >> -- call this parole hearing back into order. are we ready to vote? >> chairman, i'll start off. mr. simpson, you organized this crime in which two victims were robbed at gun point. it was a serious crime and there was no excuse for it. you deserve to be sent to prison. you have been in prison now almost nine years. minimum amount imposed by the court. you have complied with the rules of the prison. you have

simpson will make his case to the parole board of commissioners in a videoconference. 'll bring that to you live and correspondent jean casarez in carson city, nevada, where the parole board is meeting now. jean, walk us through the hearing what is sure to be a spectacle playing out on television. how will this unfold? >> reporter: right. there are cameras in the hearing and we'll be able to watch live. what we know is that o.j. simpson will be allowed to make a statement to the parole board. say whatever he wants to say. he'll probably talk about life in prison, what he's done. we know he was on the waiting list to take courses including "commitment to change" and talk about life on the outside. what he wants for himself if granted parole and he will talk about the crimes. the crimes he was committed of. today the focus is the conspiracy counts. conspiracy to commit kidnapping, to commit robbery as well as assault with a deadly weapon. he was convicted of those counts, and this is his second time at the parole board, because the first time was four years ago on the cou

i believe that the parole board got it right. i think it's listening to some of the comments and things that were said, you know, people respect the jury verdict. and they respect the parole verdict. i think that he has shown them everything we expect out of a prisoner. he's met every criteria for release. and the board specifically said that they would not consider external influences in their mission statement to do what's just and right in this specific case. i believe they did that. i am pleased with the outcome and the result. >> shepard: the people armed in this instance, they got probation from the very beginning. but o.j. simpson with no prior convictions got put away for nine to 33 1/2. was that because he was the organizer or was there something more to this? >> well, there were two things. he wassed off, i was in an interview with the prosecutor who prosecuted the case, mr. david roger. there was an offer to do approximately 30 months. on this case rather than nine years. again, it's just nearly impossible to say we all

simpson and what he to say to help tip the scales and try and convince the 4 person parole board to setrving 9 years of his 22 year sentence for his crimes. simpson, looking trim - especially compared to his last parole hearing in 2013 - seemed committed to saying the right things to sway the board, including apologizing profusely for what happened back in 2007. oj. i did not make an excuses. i did my time. i told warden, that i would be no problem, and i was not a problem. i was a model inmate, no one better i was helpful to everybody. i am sorry to nevada. simpson recapped his entire version of the events that lead to his incarceration explaining why he participated in the crime to retrieve some of his personal items and memorabillia. simpson. i thought it good to get stuff back, but 9 years away from my family not worth it. when asked whether he was humbled by his time - and learned anything behind bars, simpson said yes. he appreciated his classes - one on conflict resolution and again, mentioning his family. simpson. "i have four kids. i have missed alot. i am a giving guy. i am at

the parole hearing. he says simpson shouldn't be paroled from prison, he suggested he could pose a threat to the public, but believes boardrs will unfortunately grant him parole. we continue our coverage of the o-j simpson parole hearing. we'll talk with a legal expert about the possibility of simpson being granted parole. that's after the break.

wa going to possibly cause pblemsecause it i a little antonizing in front of the parole board. and he didn't seem that remorseful from that the crime that he committed in las vegas but obviously at the end of the day. the board at the parole board felt that he deserved to be a free man and he's going to be. i'm set free in october yeah it was a it was a a bizarre space who wasn't especially in the beginning when i that was there. at the best of loft out when the judge got hit o'jays. and each wrong at the but what happens now maybe you e paperwork and then after that people work inside. it's going to go public and also the parole board was very firm with oj simpson saying that. they. want oj simpson to be on good behavior because after he is released he has to be he will be on probation so you have to follow a lot of rules you can't drink. drink excessively he cannot commit any crimes you can't associate himself with convicts are felons so there's a lot of a strict rules that oj simpson is going to abi. have to abide by i'm after his release in october so we'll see if he's able

absolutely the parole board takes into accounts prior convictions. that's one of the 11 factors the parole board had to take into consideration and looked atting a aggravating and mitigating measures. the system worked as it should have today. you had someone convicted of a robbery. they were sentenced to 9 to 33 years. he had a discipline-free nine years in this prison, met the criteria set and that's what's supposed to happen. when you meet the criteria, peaceful and under the radar in prison and you have the victim plead for your release, you should be released. i think people are confusing this with a popularity contest. this wasn't and isn't a popularity contest. >> yeah. we're going to have more on this including what jeffrey toobin has been subjected to. we'll play the 911 tapes so you can hear for yourself what his self-described conflict-free life really sounds like. more ahead. that one's broken. what bad back?gels work so fast you'll ask what pulled hammy? advil liqui - gels make pain a distant memory nothing works faster stronger or longer

simpson, i do vote to grant parole when eligible, and that will conclude this hearing. >> thank you. >> thank you. >>> the nevada parole boardtball star. >> many watched as hi made the case for freedom. he told the board prison humbled him and he talked about scrutiny after he's freed. >> really in the last 20 years rarely have i even had any person give me any teddive stuff in the street. i have people give me looks and everything, but i'm pretty easily approachable. i dealt with it my whole life and i really don't see any problem dealing with the public now at all. >> simpson says he wants to move to florida to live with his family. he could be released as soon as october 1st. >> o.j. simpson was sent to prison in 2008 more than a decade after he was found not guilty of murdering ronald goldman and nichol brown simpson. her sister spoke about it yesterday. >> it brought me back three years ago sitting in the courtroom with the sweaty hands, visceral feeling in your belly and rapid heart rate. how i like to describe to people, it's like going up the tallest roller coaster. it really affected me today, this morning. but once

it's not something that legally the parole board can consider. r, prior criminal history actually was a mitigating factor and o.j. simpson's parole hearing yesterday because a fact of the matter is, he does not have a prior criminal history and using that term the way the parole board used it means you do not have any prior convictions. >> heather: wasn't he convicted of beating up nicole brown? they responded to his home multiple times i think it was in 1989 specifically when she was hospitalized. >> he wasn't convicted criminally. >> under the law, he doesn't have a prior criminal conviction to that. the question is whether were not he should be let back into society and his comments, not his conduct, but his comments in his conduct yesterday are white, from my perspective, are compelling reasons not to let him back in, to say that he's lived a life free from conflict, not true. to argue that he didn't know that guns are being used in the underlying crime, not true. ed was a lie, he continuously lied. >> heather: on top of that, what about not f

the o.j. simpson parole hearing in nevada. we are alive inside the room in carson city, where the parole board has just taken their seats.>> o.jng through video conference. he is at the lovelock correctional center, 100 miles away from the parole board offices. he has served 9 years of a 33 year term. this is over a confrontation over sports memorabilia. if he is

he ended by saying i'm sorry, that is certainly i would say on the mind of the parole board officials. >> i will say at one point, about 20 minutes in, it looked like it was going to go off of the rails and we saw the oj simpson described by attorneys, a man capable of great anger. when he leaned forward and he said it was my property, and you saw his lip begin to quiver there, is that what you were expecting? >> no, i saw more contrition and remorse from his daughter than i saw from oj simpson. when you're on that parole board, you want him to embrace what he has done so he can promise you what he said they are considering which are risk assessmen assessments. . you want to feel good about the decision if you're that commissioner and i don't know if they saw that in oj simpson today. the objective factor point system, he was not ringing the bell today, being oj, for his release. >> perhaps he and his attorney, it didn't seem like they were overly prepared. >> it was disappointing. if you're his lawyer, you want to prepare him for what he says and you will argue for his release from p

at times almost antagonising the parole board with his lack of horse. that he has lived a conflict free life certainly... nothing from the 199495 trial was able to be factored against him in this parole board because he was, indeed, quitted. however there is plenty of documentary evidence of his domestic violence with nicole brown when she was alive. it was a little hard for him. the same oj as far as him living in the clouds and living in a fa ntasy world. living in the clouds and living in a fantasy world. but he was bolstered by two very strong testimonies, one from his eldest daughter and from one of the robbery victims. that is rare, that a victim of a crime will come and testify in favour of a woman or‘s parole. come and testify in favour of a woman or's parole. i am sure we will hear a lot more from him when he is released in october. thank you very much for speaking to us. at least three people have been killed in venezuela during street protests in support of a nationwide strike. the strike was called in opposition to president maduro's plan to

(grant) he gave perspective about the parole board's decision... and why he says... o-j got a little bit lucky today. (steve) now reaction to o-j's parole is coming from just about all over the world. and considering simpson's bay area roots --there is no shortage of opinions on the case kron-4's haaziq madyun visited an east bay barber shop --- where all eyes were on the ruling. <"so based upon all that mr. simpson">here at lucky's barber shop in oakland, all eyes were on the tv screen when the decision was made to release o.j. simpson on parole <"i do vote to grant parole"> latonya mayfield thinks the nevada parole board made the right decisionbay area rapper trakk says he believes o.j.'s 33-year sentence for robbery and kidnapping was judicial payback after a jury found him not guilty of murdering his wife

simpson will not face the parole board here. he will do it via camera from the lovelock correctional facility. media outfits are here from all over the country and parts of the world. in carson city, cheryl hurd, nbc bay area news. >>> the search is off until tomorrow. a popular business owner in marin is still missing. search crews believe that todd friend went overboard when boating. he owns the tomales bay oyster company. he was seen yesterday on the water. searchers were able to find his boat on the water. and he wasn't wearing a life jacket when he was last season. the oyster company was established years ago. >>> more coyote sightings around the bay area. this is a coyote in los gatos on oleander avenue. this is one of at least two coyote sightings just this week. and neighbors are concerned about their safety and the safety of their pets. wild life experts say sightings are common this time of year. animals are feeding their young and meals are easy to find in populated areas. secure your trash can and keep your pets insid

again, the parole board cannot consider that. at prior convictions, of which he did not have. he is still a divisive figure. the parole board got hundreds of letters from people, some in favour of him receiving parole and many against. absolutely. ithink of him receiving parole and many against. absolutely. i think there isa against. absolutely. i think there is a split throughout the world about whether or not he should be released. they have made their decision. what will happen after he is released? decision. what will happen after he is released 7 will decision. what will happen after he is released? will he be able to go on and earn a yes, he will.|j is released? will he be able to go on and earn a yes, he will. i think it should lay low and stay out of trouble and do what the parole officer asks of him, whatever that may be. hopefully he can live a peaceful life for the remainder of his time here. how about the families of his ex—wife and ron goldman? will they be coming after him at all? i think we should certainly expect t

the april board. you need a majority to get parole. there is one vacancy on the board so there's only six on the board. he needed four of the sticks to get the parole. two worked here. they were connected by telephone. the four parole board commissioners bear voted unanimously as i expected they would. the reason is the rules. the reason is the law. the fact that oj is a criminal, the fact that oj, you know, is a serial abuser of women and everything else has nothing to do with the fact of the last nine years behind the correctional facility, he was a model prisoner. they had to let him go. >> eric: judge, is there any way he can capitalize on his fame now that he's technically a freeman? >> jeanine: no. >> eric: so -- he's got a pension coming from the nfl. >> jeanine: he is entitled to his pension. he is entitled to the money streams he's getting, but once he tries to profit off the story of the murder of his wife and ron goldman, he doesn't get it. >> eric: the o.j. simpson reality show having nothing to do with the murder. it's his

we got to hear quite a lot from oj at the parole board. what do you make of it? has changed at all? to be the honest i found his testimony at the self—justifying. at times almost antagonising the parole board with his lack of remorse. the one comment i believe was how he has lived a conflict free life. certainly nothing from the 1994— 9095 trial was able to be factored against him in this parole board because he was indeed acquitted. however, there was lots of documented evidence of his domestic violence with nicole brown when she was alive. so it was a little bit ha rd was alive. so it was a little bit hard for him. it was the same oj as far as hard for him. it was the same oj as faras him hard for him. it was the same oj as far as him living in the clouds and ina far as him living in the clouds and in a fantasy world, but he was bolstered by two very strong testimonies, one by his eldest daughter and one of the robbery victims. it is very rare that a victims. it is very rare that a victim of crime will come testify in favour of a criminal‘s parole. at least thre

lastly, i want though thank and recognize the administrative staff of the nevada parole board who have done a tremendous job of working together to facilitate our activities related to the public and media interests in this case. at 11:55 a.m. this morning, the nevada board of parole officers granted to grant parole to mr. orenthal simpson, effective when eligible. mr. simpson's eligibility date is october 1, 2017, and he may be release from the prison on or after that date once any proposed a proposed replease plans have been approved. the board stated the reasons for granting parole included mr. simpson had no prior conviction or criminal history, he had participated in programs specific to addressing behavior that led to his incarceration, he has stable release plans and community and family support, and the victim in the case testified in support of mr. simpson's release. this case will now be turned over to the division of parole and probation to gather and investigate mr. simpson's proposed release plans. captain arudi and warden bacca indicated they don't have specific statement

what led to the decision today by the parol board? factors. and this is the order granting parol that we've all looked at and there were six crimes he was still serving time for. many of them including use of a deadly weapon. and o.j. simpson said to the parol board, it wasn't me holding the gun, although in the trial, it was clear he knew that there were people who had guns in this, but they look at all sorts of things. testimony from o.j. himself, they listen to testimony from a friend of his, testimony from his daughter. his attorney read a letter that he had written to a legislator here in nevada. ultimately, they made their decision that o.j. simpson will be released from prison. here's what o.j. said to try to plea his case. >> i've done my time. you know, i've done it as well and as respectfully as i think anybody can, i think if it you talk to the wardens, they'll tell you, i've been -- i gave them my word, i believe in the jury system. i've honored their verdict. i've not complained for nine years, all i've done is try to be h
