Ever wonder what one wife murderer thinks of another wife murderer? Well you can learn now because the OJ explains what he thinks of it. Does he think that Blake is guilty? Well, read on fellow OA.commers.

O.J. Simpson 'Fascinated' by Blake Murder Case


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - O.J. Simpson has told a TV interviewer that he felt compassion for Robert Blake after the actor's wife was killed, and has been ``fascinated'' by the high-profile murder case.

``I've got to admit, I was pretty fascinated when I first heard it,'' Simpson, whose criminal trial for the murder of his ex-wife and her friend was dubbed 'The Trial of the Century,'' told the syndicated television show ``Extra'' in an interview set to air on Thursday.

``And my first reaction was an immediate feeling of compassion for (Blake) because I knew what he was about to go through.''

Blake's 45-year-old wife, Bonny Lee Bakley, was shot to death on May 4 as she sat in his car near Vitello's restaurant in Studio City, and police have said that the ``Baretta'' star has not been ruled out as a suspect.

Simpson, who was acquitted of murdering Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman in a criminal trial but held liable for their deaths by a civil court jury, also had advice for Blake about handling media scrutiny.

``Don't watch TV, Robert,'' Simpson said. ``I know that watching TV is only going to frustrate him. That's all it's going to do.''

Bakley's family has accused Blake's lawyer, Harland Braun, of trashing her reputation in death to throw suspicion away from his client. But Simpson rejected any comparisons to his own case, which revealed unflattering details about the life of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson.

``My lawyers never revealed any information about Nicole that her friends hadn't already revealed,'' he said. ``My lawyers were never the leader in any of that because they were told specifically, and we had a philosophy: 'Nothing negative about Nicole.'''

Bakley was found shot dead in Blake's car on May 4 about a block and a half from Vitello's, where the couple had dined. Blake told police he had left his wife alone in the car while he went back to retrieve a gun he was carrying for her protection in the wake of threats.

Blake, who played detective Tony Baretta in the mid-1970s television drama, began his career as a child actor in the ``Our Gang'' movies and has since appeared in 127 films.

Well, when you think about it, OJ is actually the best person to take advice from in this type of matter.

He probably felt compassion for him because he knows Blake doesn't have nearly the amount of money OJ had to be able to afford the legal representation he will need to get him off.

The NYPOST had a little more in depth with OJ. He has got to be kidding me. Ant is going to have a field day with this today.

May 17, 2001 -- O.J. Simpson said yesterday he's "fascinated" by the murder of Robert Blake's wife - and knows just how the "Baretta" actor feels.

Simpson - whose "trial of the century" held the nation transfixed following the 1994 stabbing deaths of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her pal Ron Goldman - also offered Blake these tips:


* Don't take a lie-detector test.

* Don't diss your dead ex.

* Don't watch TV.


"I've got to admit, I was pretty fascinated when I first heard it," Simpson says in an exclusive interview airing on tonight's "Extra" (7 p.m. on WNBC/Channel 4).

"And my first reaction was an immediate feeling of compassion for him because I knew what he was about to go through.

"I was just saying, 'This poor guy. I hope they find out who did it right away' - because the next week or two is going to be horrible for him, being under that veil of suspicion," the former football great tells "Extra" in the back yard of his Miami home.

Blake's wife, Bonny Lee Bakley, was gunned down in the front seat of his car on an isolated street blocks away from Vitello's restaurant in Studio City, Calif., where the couple had just eaten dinner.

Blake says he returned to the restaurant to retrieve his gun - and then went back to the car to find his wife shot in the front seat.

Simpson advises Blake to turn off the boob tube.

"Don't watch TV, Robert," Simpson says. "I know that watching TV is only going to frustrate him. That's all it's going to do.

"He really wants to go out and hit somebody, but you can't win doing that."

Simpson was acquitted of the murders of his ex and Goldman, but was later found liable for the slayings in a civil suit.

Along with a lot of been-there/done-that advice, Simpson also gently mocks Blake, quoting words to the theme song of the actor's hit '70s police show.

"Yeah, keep your eye on the sparrow. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time," Simpson says, reciting the lyrics sung by Sammy Davis Jr.

Simpson tells "Extra" the only parallels between his murder case and Bakley's slaying is that "[Blake's] famous, I was famous. I think that's the only real comparison."

Simpson also says he and his lawyers never smeared his ex-wife's reputation. One of Blake's lawyers, Harland Braun, has been brutally blunt in painting Bakley as a gold-digger and grifter.

"My attorneys never said a word about Nicole's people and people involved with her," Simpson says. "My lawyers never revealed any information about Nicole that her friends hadn't already revealed.

"My lawyers were never the leader in any of that because they were told specifically, and we had a philosophy, nothing negative about Nicole."

In fact, during Simpson's civil trial, his lawyer trashed Nicole and her past troubles during opening arguments.

Simpson, who says he's a Court TV junkie, also tells "Extra" Blake shouldn't take a lie-detector test - citing the cases of John and Patsy Ramsey and Louise Woodward, the English nanny found guilty of manslaughter for shaking a baby to death.

"I would recommend to everybody, if you ever find yourself in this position, do exactly what the Ramseys did and what Robert Blake did," he says. "A lie-detector test at this stage of the investigation can only hurt him, it can't help him.

"Because if he passed, much like the English nanny who passed two or three of them in her trial up in New England, you don't hear about them. They don't mean nothing."

Simpson also has this advice for Bakley's family.

"I would say, keep an open mind and put as much pressure on the LAPD as they can to make sure they're going to charge someone - and that they charge the right person," he says.

"In my heart of hearts, I don't know [if Blake killed his wife], but I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt," Simpson says. "As far as I'm concerned, this man is innocent until a jury comes back and calls him guilty.

"That's the way everybody should look at this guy - that's the American way."

Did an yone watch it on Extra (I'll put the audio up later tonight)? It was funny as hell. It ends with him saying "I'm the last person an attractive young woman should date" and I immediately imagine the Ant doing OJ voice saying "...because I'll kill her."
