O.J.’s book gets second printing

With O.J. Simpson in jail on charges of robbery and other felonies, the bestselling book about his alleged murder confession is getting a second printing.

Beaufort Books has commissioned 50,000 more copies of Simpson’s “If I Did It,” the ghostwritten account of how the ex-football star would have murdered Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Lyle Goldman. The book, which came out last week and on Tuesday ranked No. 2 on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com, now has 200,000 copies in print.

“The arrest brought the whole question of O.J. and the law back into everybody’s consciousness,” Beaufort owner Eric Kampmann said.
