FBI, DEA search Simpson’s home

Federal agents searched the home of former football great O.J. Simpson early Tuesday as part of an investigation into an Ecstasy drug ring and the theft of equipment used to steal satellite television signals.

DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION agents and the Miami-Dade Police Department joined the FBI in the search, said Detective Ed Munn, a spokesman for the county agency.

Agents arrived at about 6 a.m. and Simpson was at home, Munn said. In a shot from a television helicopter, Simpson could be seen walking in the backyard in a bathrobe.

Orihuela said the ring imported Ecstasy from Holland and stole equipment used to counterfeit cards that activate satellite television receivers.

Simpson attorney Yale Galanter did not immediately return a call to his office seeking comment.

The incident was not Simpson’s first with the law since he moved to the neighborhood 15 miles southwest of Miami last year. He was acquitted in a Miami trial Oct. 24 of grabbing another driver’s glasses and scratching the man’s face in an alleged road-rage argument Simpson insisted was started by the other guy.

Simpson was cleared of criminal charges in the 1994 slayings of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman in Los Angeles, but a civil jury later ordered him to pay $33.5 million for their deaths.
