virge Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Updated 9:40 AM ET, Sun October 1, 2017 LAS VEGAS — O.J. Simpson walked out of prison early Sunday after serving nine years for a Las Vegas armed robbery and kidnapping. The former NFL star left prison shortly after midnight local time, and was picked up by a friend, according to Brooke Keast , a spokeswoman for the Nevada Department of Corrections. “I told him, ‘don’t ‘come back,’ and he responded, ‘I don’t intend to, ‘” she said. “He was upbeat, personable and seemed happy to get on with his life.” Simpson, 70, was freed in the middle of the night to give him privacy. “Our biggest concern was our safety and the public’s safety and not wanting anybody, paparazzi, to follow him,” Keast said. “He left through a big blue door through the front gatehouse and exited quietly. He looked down because he didn’t want to be photographed.” Florida’s attorney general, however, doesn’t want O.J. Simpson to return to Florida. Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to Florida Department of Corrections Secretary Julie L. Jones on Friday saying that she should immediately tell Nevada officials that Florida objects to Simpson serving his parole in Florida. Simpson’s attorney, Malcolm LaVergne, said earlier Friday there’s “no doubt” Simpson is going to Florida. Besides the robbery and kidnapping Simpson was convicted of in Nevada in 2008, Bondi listed the two murders for which Simpson was found civilly liable as reasons to reject his relocation. She also noted a history of violence and destructive behavior, including a time he was arrested for speeding in his powerboat in a manatee zone. Florida corrections officials have said in the past that they must accept the transfer if Nevada’s request meets the established criteria. Simpson previously lived in Florida before his 2008 conviction.
