- THE ALLEGED SUICIDE NOTE
- Friday, June 17
-
- While police are searching for O. J., Simpson friend
- Robert Kardashian reads the 700 word long letter
- Simpson has sent him before disappearing:
-
- To whom it may concern.
-
- First, everyone understand, I have nothing to do with
- Nicole´s murder. I loved her. I always have and I always
- will. If we had a problem, it´s because I loved her so
- much. Recently we came to the understanding that for now
- we were not right for each other. At least for now. Despite
- our love we were different, and that´s why we mutually
- agreed to go our separate ways.
-
- It was tough splitting for a second time, but we both knew
- that it was for the best. Inside, I had no doubt that in
- the future we would be close friends or more. Unlike what
- has been written in the press, Nicole and I had a great
- relationship for most of our lives together. Like all
- long-term relationships, we had a few downs and ups.
-
- I took the heat New Year´s 1989 because that´s what I was
- supposed to do. I did not plead no contest for any other
- reason but to protect our privacy, and was advised it would
- end the press hype.
-
- I don´t want to belabor knocking the press but I can´t
- believe what is being said. Most of it is totally made up.
- I know you have a job to do but as a last wish, please,
- please, please leave my children in peace. Their lives will
- be tough enough.
-
- I want to send my love and thanks to all my friends. I´m
- sorry I can´t name every one of you, especially A. C. Man,
- thanks for being in my life. The support and friendship I
- received from so many: Wayne Hughes, Lewis Markes, Frank
- Olson, Mark Packer, Bender, Bobby Kardashian. I wish we had
- spent more time together in recent years. My golfing
- buddies, Hoss, Alan Austin, Mike Craig, Bender, Wyler,
- Sandy, Jay, Donnie, thanks for all the fun.
-
- All my teammates over the years, Reggie, you were the soul
- of my pro career. Ahmad, I never stopped being proud of
- you. Marcus, you´ve got a great lady in Catherine, don´t
- mess it up. Bobby Chandler, thanks for always being there.
- Skip and Cathy, I love you guys, without you I never would
- have made it through this far.
-
- Marguerite, thanks for the early years. We had some fun.
- Paula, what can I say? You are special. I´m sorry I´m not
- going to have, we´re not going to have our chance. God
- brought you to me, I now see. As I leave, you´ll be in my
- thoughts.
-
- I think of my life and feel I´ve done most of the right
- things. So why do I end up like this? I can´t go on. No
- matter what the outcome, people will look and point. I
- can´t take that. I can´t subject my children to that. This
- way they can move on and go on with their lives.
-
- Please, of I´ve done anything worthwhile in my life, let
- my kids live in peace from you, the press.
-
- I´ve had a good life. I´m proud of how I lived. My mama
- taught me to do unto others. I treated people the way I
- wanted to be treated. I´ve always tried to be up and
- helpful, so why is this happening? I´m sorry for the
- Goldman family. I know how much it hurts.
-
- Nicole and I had a good life together. All this press talk
- about a rocky relationship was no more than what every
- long-term relationship experiences. All her friends will
- confirm that I have been totally loving and understanding
- of what she´s been going through.
-
- At times I have felt like a battered husband or boyfriend
- but I loved her, make that clear to everyone. And I would
- take whatever it took to make it work.
-
- Don´t feel sorry for me. I´ve had a great life, great
- friends. Please think of the real O. J. and not this lost
- person. Thanks for making my life special. I hope I helped
- your´s.
-
- Peace and love,
-
- O. J.
- END
