Post by c***@hushmail.comPost by s***@aol.comSo now it turns out that the feds knew about O.J.'s undercover sting
and did nothing to prevent it. Which means that the government is
responsible for any quote crime unquote that may or may not have
happened. O.J. Simpson will skate from this latest travesty, mark my
words.
I am however shocked that O.J.'s supposed best friends such as Bob
Miller and Joseph Prien have been silent throughout this entire tawdry
affair.
What are you talking about? Can you give some references to what you are
talking about? How about some links?
Here's a good link for StCool316:

StCool is referring to this news story:
FBI agents learned three weeks in advance that OJ Simpson and a
memorabilia dealer planned an operation to retrieve personal items
that Simpson claimed were stolen from him, according to reports.
Dealer Thomas Riccio told the FBI on August 21 that the former
American football star wanted to televise the operation as he
confronted a collector who was peddling thousands of pieces of
Simpson's memorabilia.
Riccio was advised to contact a lawyer before taking any action and
was told that alerting the FBI would not absolve him of any potential
crime, Special Agent Linda Kline wrote of the meeting, which occurred
in Los Angeles.
Simpson, 60, and five other men were arrested after they allegedly
stormed a Las Vegas hotel room on September 13 to seize items that
were believed to include family photos and the suit Simpson wore the
day he was acquitted of murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson,
and her friend.
Las Vegas Police Detective Andy Caldwell, the investigator handling
the case, said the FBI did not alert his department before the
confrontation between Simpson and collectors Alfred Beardsley and
Bruce Fromong in a room at a Las Vegas casino hotel.
"They contacted us afterwards and provided us with the documentation,"
Caldwell said.
He said he had no information about any FBI investigation into the
incident and said he has no idea about the nature of the contact
between federal agents and Riccio "or why they were talking with him."
FBI spokesman Laura Eimiller would not comment on the interview.
Okay, note the important line above: Riccio was advised to get a
lawyer and that alerting the FBI would NOT absolve him of any
potential crime. Sorry to break up your fantasy.
