Simpson Murder Case : Paid Interviews
The National Enquirer agreed to pay $12,500 to co-owners and a salesman of a Los Angeles cutlery story for information about O.J. Simpson purchasing a knife. Said Steve Cox, executive editor of the National Inquirer: “More money will be spent than ever before in the history of the press” in seeking information on the case.
Tuesday’s Motion
Judge Kathleen Kennedy-Powell is expected to hear discussions Tuesday--the next day of court proceedings--on a defense motion to exclude 34 items of evidence. Simpson’s lawyers contend that police seized the evidence after improperly obtaining the warrant that allowed them to search his home, property and car June 13.
