by from on (#2WRRY)
O.J. Simpson is reportedly not expected to face any opposition to his petition to be released at his parole hearing on Thursday, according to Ken Ritter of The Associated Press.
Neither Simpson's victim nor the former prosecutor are expected to attend the hearing.
"Assuming that he's behaved himself in prison, I don't think it will be out of line for him to get parole," former Clark County attorney David Roger said.
The 70-year-old former NFL star is approaching the minimum nine years in prison for a 2008 conviction for armed robbery and assault with a weapon. He will be released in October if granted parole.
