Communication between F. Lee Bailey and O.J. Simpson didn’t end when the former NFL player was acquitted. In 2008, Simpson was arrested for a 2007 incident after he stole some of his old memorabilia. Simpson was sentenced to 33 years behind bars, but was released on parole nine years into serving his sentence. He left prison on October 1, 2017, and days later, he linked up with his former lawyer and friend, Bailey.
On October 17, 2017, just two weeks after his release, Simpson and Bailey were spotted having dinner at a Las Vegas hotel. Although it’s unclear what the two spoke about at this get-together, it was evident they were still on good terms, having a deep conversation and hugging each other goodbye at the end of the night.
Bailey has always stood behind Simpson’s innocence, even claiming certain evidence in his book, “The Truth About The O.J. Simpson Trial.” In this book, O.J.’s reaction to the news of his ex-wife’s death and the timeline of how the night unfolded supposedly demonstrated that O.J. could have never committed the murder. Bailey also claimed there was a witness who saw Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman the night of the murder, but the witness never had the chance to testify because the LAPD quickly ruled him out after they had reportedly recorded misinformation. Up until his death, Bailey backed O.J. and his innocence as the two remained good friends.
