REPORT: OJ Simpson Gets Parole Hearing Date, Could Be Released As Early As October 1st

After a slew of documentaries and television shows last earlier this year covering the OJ Simpson murder trials and the saga surrounding him, it’s baffling to think that the former football star could be a free man quite soon.

Per TMZ, Board of Parole Commissioners has confirmed the date and says if things go well, Simpson could be released as early as October 1st.

Though Simpson will not physically attend the hearing, he will watch via video conferencing from the Lovelock Correctional Center in Nevada.
