Is he just trying to stay relevant?
Has someone promised him something?
Is he just, after all these years, feeling the need to clear his conscience?
It sounds weird to me. I know he did it. I watched every single minute of that exhaustive trial. He did it. But why confess now?
Because of double jeopardy he, of course, can't be tried again. He's already lost a civil suit filed against him by the Goldmans so he'll never have any substantial assets again. So again, I wonder, what's he got to gain by this sudden confession?
How's his health?

Pat, your post poses three very sane possibilities for why O.J. would finally confess to what 99% of the populace already knows that he did.
The "self-defense" deal is kinda weird to me, but I'm tossing that out as classic O.J.
The truth is that O.J. is just a nut case, and trying to understand the mind/actions of the insane steal valuable thinkin' time.
If he confesses, it's because HE'S A NUT! HE'S SOMEWHAT RETARDED, AND PROBABLY TOOK TOO MANY SHOTS TO THE HEAD FROM GYNORMOUS LINEBACKERS.
Seriously, he probably is trying to keep himself relevant. It's been a long time (in media years) since they locked him up. Most folks rarely (if ever) think one second about O.J. & his murder of Nicole. I figure as his sentence winds down, he knows he'll be out one day...and will likely do this again closer to his release date.
I'm voting for the "relevance" deal. Have a good time in Natchitoches.
