Lawyer wants Simpson free pending appeal
O.J. Simpson is being isolated from other prisoners for his own safety and is focusing on a motion for new trial in Las Vegas and a bid for appellate reversal of his conviction for kidnapping and robbery, his lawyer said. Attorney Yale Galanter said he will continue to pursue a request for Simpson, 61, to be released on bond pending appeal. Simpson will be held in Clark County (Nev.) Detention Center until his Dec. 5 sentencing, then is expected to be transferred to state prison. Because of the seriousness of the charges, it is likely that Simpson, the Hall of Fame running back, would remain in jail during his appeal.
