DirecTV Accuses O.J. Simpson of Pirating Its Satellite Signals.
The Associated Press
Published: Mar 8, 2004

MIAMI (AP) - DirecTV is accusing O.J. Simpson of pirating its satellite television signal.
In a lawsuit filed Wednesday in federal court in Miami, the company demanded the former football star pay DirecTV $20,000.

Federal agents removed satellite TV equipment from Simpson's house in the Miami neighborhood of Kendall during a search in 2001. DirecTV alleges the devices were "bootloaders," for unscrambling the company's signals. <snip>

2. You can tell who owns DirecTV now
Even if OJ stole it, the price would not be 20,000..
