Confession: How I Helped O.J. Get Away With Murder

2015

Synopsis

You don't know the whole truth about O.J. Simpson and the murders that gripped a nation. But sports agent and O.J. confidant Mike Gilbert does, and in Confession: How I Helped O.J. Get Away With Murder, Gilbert reveals all. He opens up about O.J. Simpson's late-night confession, the real motive for the murders, and the shocking reason why O.J.'s hand didn't fit the glove. (Hint: It was Gilbert's idea.)

Told with searing candor, Gilbert's story doesn't spare anyone—not even himself. He fully admits that he helped deceive the jury and confesses that he feels deeply responsible for the "Not Guilty" verdict. But the blame extends beyond Gilbert: he casts a glaring light on how celebrity can corrupt, how power can mislead, and how friendship and loyalty can be perverted.
