O.J. Simpson's Estate to Auction Prison Items

O.J. Simpson's estate plans to auction off a collection of explicit magazines and unopened Trojan condoms from his time in prison to help address significant debts totaling around $100 million, stemming from a 1997 wrongful death lawsuit. The collection, which includes Penthouse magazines acquired during his 2008 incarceration, reflects Simpson's longstanding interest in adult content, retained even after his 2017 release. Attorney Malcolm LaVergne confirmed that the auction is tentatively planned for early 2025, although details are still being finalized. Efforts to settle debts have included the potential sale of one of Simpson's properties, but these measures have only made a small dent in the overall financial burden. The estate is also facing a recent $500,000 tax lien from California. Despite the unusual nature of the items, the auction may attract attention as a means of addressing Simpson's mounting financial challenges.
