LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Officials at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. say they hope to have a display of O.J. Simpson's "acquittal suit" ready for the public in time for October's 15th anniversary of the end of the case. An official with the museum says the suit is now being evaluated before being turned over to those who will craft the display. The suit was delivered to the Newseum last week by Simpson's former manager, who has had the clothing in storage since the trial ended in 1995. The suit will be part of a collection that includes press passes, newspapers -- and the mute button the judge used to shut off the live microphone in court so lawyers and the judge could speak off the record. The suit was first offered to the Smithsonian Institution -- but the museum said it wasn't appropriate for its collection.(AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin)
