O.J. Simpson trial sentencing in Las Vegas

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 5 (UPI) -- "Juiced," a 90-minute reality program starring former U.S. football star O.J. Simpson, is getting a DVD release, XEG Public Relations said Friday.

The announcement was made the same day Simpson was sentenced in Las Vegas to at least nine years in prison for holding up two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint.

He previously was arrested and tried for, but acquitted of, the stabbing deaths of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman. He was later found responsible for their slayings in a wrongful death civil trial.

"Every segment contains jaw-dropping hidden-camera stunts and outrageous practical jokes performed by O.J. himself on unsuspecting real-life people all across America," the DVD's producers said in a news release. "'Juiced' puts O.J. back in the spotlight, delivering shock, amazement and surreal excitement with every role he plays. 'Juiced' mixes the most outrageous and recognizable spoofs of popular reality TV with O.J.'s outrageous personality and rarely seen sense of humor, resulting in unbelievable reactions from everyone he comes in contact."

No release date for the DVD was given but the company said it would go on sale soon.
