O.J. accuser suffers massive heart attack
KVBC ^ | 9-18-07 | Staff

One of the men accusing O.J. Simpson of robbing him last Thursday is in the hospital. A spokesperson for Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles says Bruce Fromong is in the intensive care unit after suffering what's being described as a massive heart attack.

News 3's Jesse Corona spoke with Bruce Fromong's neighbors who say they can hardly believe everything that's been happening.

Before 53-year-old Bruce Fromong was an alleged victim in O.J. Simpson's personal sports memorabilia sting, he was an O.J. supporter. Fromong testified for Simpson's defense in the wrongful death case brought by Fred Goldman.

He also somehow came into possession of the suit that Simpson wore when he was acquitted of criminal charges in the infamous 1994 double murder........."

“I don’t know what this does to the case,”

It means Fromong was OJ’s henchman. Fromong was holding on to OJ’s valuables so the victim’s estates wouldn’t grab them. Fromong apparently double-crossed OJ.

“but a “reasonable person” would likely conclude that several armed thugs, in the presence of an accused (and believed to be by many) murderer, such as OJ, would exacerbate, if not CAUSE, any heart condition/trauma.”

Highly unlikely in any case, but no way in this case since Bruce Fromong was most likely involved in setting up OJ in this so-called armed robbery.

“Punk Simpson committed at least 8 crimes, it isn’t up to the victim to press charges. That is the job of the District Attorney and the police.”

Thats true, bit if the victims get on the witness stand and say no big deal, then the jury is prone to say acquit.

That, for now, is pure speculation. We will have to see what pans out on this. But it's not speculation that Fromong has suffered a massive heart attack.

Well, I agree with that myself. But a tricky lawyer would get him off on that one and it could end up with a civil suit by the man's estate against O.J. again.

Nope. OJ and the rest better hope he pulls through, cause if he doesn't make it, they may not be looking at the death penalty but at an extra life sentence behind bars. That's on top of the kidnapping charge.

I think you’re right, even if it ends up being some sort of “publicity stunt”...what they did was still illegal.

Yes, just a guess. But the whole thing sure is suspicious. The stress could have been caused by lying as well. It would be a different story if he had the heart attack during the “robbery”.

I agree...this is starting to smell...too many coinkydinks. But...who knows. As far as the heart thing....I am also speculating that something more has gone on that just this being a publicity stunt for selling books. And I can’t imagine that someone would be more likely to suffer a massive heart attack from just lying as opposed to being more frightened of something/someone else (i.e., OJ).

I really don’t care what occurred....even if it was a set-up, if it sends OJ to prison, fine by me.

The set-up people should not be charged.

I am so glad you responded like you did.

Some posters are so full of themselves. Imagine summoning an admin moderator over this.

Punk Simpson will not enjoy a predominantly black jury in Las Vegas, nor will he enjoy a star-struck jury like he did in his criminal murder trial. 99% of the population think he killed his wife and Ron Goldman, and would like to see him rot in prison. I would move to Las Vegas if I knew I could be on the jury!
