(CNN)O.J. Simpson is scheduled to appear Thursday before a parole board in Nevada in a hearing that will decide whether one of America's most notorious prisoners will be released.
"Juice," as he was known in his football heyday, is nine years into a nine-to-33-year sentence after his conviction in a 2007 kidnapping and armed robbery at a Las Vegas hotel.
But Simpson is best known for his infamous 1995 acquittal in the grisly slayings of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in what was called the "trial of the century."
Here's what to expect at the parole hearing, which begins at 1 p.m. ET:
O.J. Simpson Parole Hearing: Will the Nevada Board of Parole Grant His Freedom?
O.J. Simpson will make his case for freedom on Thursday — and many experts believe he has a good shot at winning it.
Simpson's fate rests in the hands of four members of the Nevada Board of Parole, who will hold a hearing starting at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) in Carson City. Simpson will appear via video conference from two hours away at Lovelock Correctional Center, the isolated medium-security facility northeast of Reno that he has called home for nearly nine years, to answer commissioners' questions.
