Simpson's attorney denies FBI agent's testimony

Associated Press

MIAMI -- An FBI agent has testified that an Ecstasy dealer in Miami supplied small amounts of the party drug to retired football star O. J. Simpson and six other people.

FBI agent Chris Piersza says five of those buying the illicit narcotic pills got them in large enough amounts indicating they were distributing them. Simpson was not among them.

Simpson's attorney, Yale Galanter, denies Simpson received even a single Ecstasy pill from the admitted dealer, Andrew Anderson.

Anderson and eight other people were indicted last November on Ecstasy distribution conspiracy charges. Simpson was not charged. But the FBI searched his house the following month.

The testimony came in the trial of a co-defendant. Toledo developer Mark Nowakowski could get up to 20 years in prison if convicted of conspiring with intent to distribute Ecstasy.
