O.J. Simpson Says Bill Cosby Is In Danger In Prison: Report

Convicted felon O.J. Simpson says that Bill Cosby will be in danger in prison, according to video footage recently obtained by media outlets.

Simpson, who spent nine years in prison on armed robbery and kidnapping charges and was infamous acquitted of two counts of murder, was interviewed in a video on TMZ outside a golf course this week.

"They're gonna have to put him in protective custody, because it takes one nut, you know?" Simpson said, when asked about Cosby.

Cosby, 81, was sentenced to three to 10 years in state prison on Tuesday. Shortly after his sentencing, he had his first run-in with an inmate while he was temporarily held at Montgomery County Correctional Facility, according to one source. A stale hot dog bun was thrown at him.

Simpson, 71, added that he "believed in the justice system" but that prison isn't safe for Cosby, and that he should be permitted to do his time under house arrest.

Cosby is being held at SCI Phoenix in Montgomery County, where he is presently in a single cell that is adjacent to the infirmary. The Department of Corrections says that the plan is ultimately for Cosby to be integrated into the prison's general population.

"The problem is the nature of the crime," Simpson said. "Rape is frowned upon in prison."
