SIMPSON AUCTIONEER AGREES IMMUNITY DEAL WITH POLICE
LATEST: The auctioneer involved in the O.J. SIMPSON alleged armed robbery has been granted immunity by Las Vegas police, after handing over his audiotape of the incident.
Thomas Riccio’s lawyer had been negotiating the deal with police, to ensure he wasn’t prosecuted for his involvement in the incident on Sunday (16Sep07) and for making an illegal recording.
Speaking on Larry King’s talk show on Tuesday (19Sep07), Riccio revealed he had handed over the tape and sold a copy to a news website.
He said, "I was (given immunity)." Simpson, meanwhile, has been freed on $125,000 (£62,500) after spending three days in a Nevada jail for his part in the alleged sports memorabilia armed robbery on collector Alfred Beardsley at the Palace Station Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas last week (13Sep07).
