You Don't Know the Full Truth About O.J. Simpson and the
Murders that Gripped a Nation. But Mike Gilbert does, and after nearly two decades of being
O.J. Simpson's sports agent, business advisor, and trusted
confidant, Gilbert is breaking his silence and telling the
full story of the man he idolized, but now despises.
Gilbert's shocking tale is unlike anything you've read
before; it isn't his "version" of what happened--it's the
unvarnished truth. The truth about O.J., the murders, and
the infamous trial. Not as Gilbert imagined or would like it
to be, but how it actually was. Gilbert doesn't spare
anyone, not even himself--he helped deceive the jury and
feels deeply responsible for the "Not Guilty" verdict. So why is Gilbert speaking out now? Has he gone from sinner
to saint? Is he making a play for sympathy or looking to
make a quick buck? No. (Proceeds from this book are going to
the March of Dimes and other selected charities with which
Gilbert has long been associated.) Gilbert is writing this
book because he regrets what he did for his adored,
childhood idol. He can no longer find any excuse for how he
has shielded O.J. Simpson; and he is determined that the
full truth must now be told, including: * O.J.'s late night confession to Gilbert
* How Gilbert was responsible for O.J.'s hand not fitting
the murder glove
* Why O.J. murdered Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman (it was
more than jealousy)
* Why Gilbert defended O.J. for so long--and what finally
convinced him he could do so no longer
* How O.J. ignored his financial obligations to the Goldman
family and milked the tabloids for money
* The real reason why an armed O.J. burst in on the
memorabilia collectors in Las Vegas (Gilbert had what O.J.
was looking for) Told with searing candor, this book leaves no one's
reputation intact--not even Gilbert's. But he casts a
glaring light on how celebrity can corrupt, how power can
mislead, and how friendship and loyalty can be perverted.
His book is meant to set the record straight, to lay to rest
the ghosts of that dreadful night that have haunted him ever
since, and to now play what little part he can to forward
the process the of justice.
