LAS VEGAS (KLAS) A probate judge approved a plan Friday to auction off pieces of O.J. Simpsons personal property, a lawyer involved in the process confirmed to the 8 News Now Investigators.
Simpson died in Las Vegas on April 10 at the age of 76. His long-time attorney, Malcolm LaVergne, was tasked to handle his trust and estate. An attorney representing LaVergne in Fridays hearing said the auction process would begin soon.
Items potentially to be auctioned include a Heisman Trophy, golf clubs, Simpsons car and drivers license, LaVergne previously said, adding it was unclear if the trophy was authentic.
