Nicole Brown Simpson's sister upset about book

It looks like I am not the only one who thinks that it is unseemly for the Goldman family to publish the O.J. Simpson book "If I Did It." It turns out that Denise Brown, Nicole's sister, was "shocked and horrified" about the publication of the book and is justifiably concerned about the effect this will have on Nicole's children.

All of this is perfectly reasonable considering that, despite the minor contribution to the very new Ron Goldman Foundation, the Goldman family stands to make a tremendous amount of money on the project. As such, I strongly urge any reader to join in Denise's call for a boycott of the book.

Nicole Brown Simpson sister: Boycott O.J. book

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) - The sister of Nicole Brown Simpson on Tuesday called for a boycott of the O.J. Simpson book "If I Did It" about the slayings of Simpson's ex-wife and her friend Ronald Goldman.

Fred Goldman, father of the slain Ron Goldman, gained the rights to O.J. Simpson's book in July.

Denise Brown said she was "shocked and horrified" to learn that a literary agent for the Goldman family had reached a deal to publish the controversial book.

In a prepared statement, she said she couldn't bear that her sister's two children "will have to be subjected to this step by step manual on how their mother and her friend Ron were murdered."
