LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - More than a decade after he was acquitted of murdering his ex-wife and her friend, O.J. Simpson will describe in a televised interview how he would have committed the crime if he were the one responsible, the Fox network said.
The taped interview was conducted by publisher Judith Regan, who is putting out a book Simpson wrote in which he "hypothetically describes how the murders would have been committed," Fox said in a statement on Tuesday.
The interview will be the basis for a two-part Fox special, tentatively titled "O.J. Simpson: If I Did It, Here's How It Happened," airing on November 27 and November 29, Fox said. The book, "If I Did It," goes on sale on November 30.
A California jury in 1995 found the former football star not guilty of murder in the June 1994 stabbing deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, concluding a sensational trial that riveted the world's attention.
A civil court jury in February of 1997 found Simpson liable for the deaths and ordered him to pay $33.5 million in damages to the families of the victims.
Lawyers for Goldman's parents have said they would attempt to garnish any of Simpson's future earnings to satisfy the judgment, which he has vowed never to pay.
Simpson has always insisted that he was wrongly accused of the killings.
According to Fox, Simpson agreed to an unrestricted interview with Regan, in which he "describes how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes."
In a brief promotional clip from the interview posted on Fox's Web site, Simpson, says, "I don't think any two people could be murdered without everybody being covered in blood."
He is also seen setting aside a copy of a book he is reading from -- presumably his own -- and saying, "I can't do no more of this."
Regan Books is an imprint of book publisher HarperCollins, which, like Fox, is a unit of News Corp. Ltd.

I have to say what a good secret Santa present the book would make though.

You've got to admire the gall of the man. To kill your wife, get away with it, and then admit to doing it via national television takes some bollocks (and a touch of insanity)

what a prick he is. He needs to keep his head down.
I'm not hot on law, but could a possible retrial occur because of this, if anything is uncovered.

I don't think so because, by the sounds of it, he is fabricating a way in which he could have killed his wife and her lover, instead of fabricating a way in which he didn't.
Kind of like saying "I didn't chuck that brick through my neighbours window but if i did i would have made damn sure it was the study window because I knew he would have been in there at the time."
