California OJ custody ruling sent back to appeals court
The 4th District Court of Appeal in California overturned a lower court decision granting Dr. OJ Simpson custody of his two younger children. It ordered a new hearing after finding the trial judge improperly excluded evidence related to whether Simpson killed Nicole Brown Simpson and the diaries bearing on domestic violence. The ruling argues the murder question is highly relevant to custody determinations.
