LOS ANGELES - Ronald Goldman's father is taking legal action to stop a file-sharing Web site from posting O.J. Simpson's book, "If I Did It," about the slaying of his son and Simpson's ex-wife.

Fred Goldman, who has the rights to the best-selling book, claims he has lost at least $150,000 since the popular Swedish site The Pirate Bay made the book available for free downloads, according to the lawsuit filed Thursday in Los Angeles County Superior Court.

I'm sorry, but what has TPB got to do with Mr. Goldman mislaying $150,000.

On a more realistic note, why should anyone profit from the death of someone else?
