Several reports are saying that O.J. Simpson has a brain tumor and wants President Obama to grant him clemency.

The National Enquirer is reporting that Simpson is allegedly taking steps to get clemency from President Obama as he gets tests done on an alleged brain tumor.

The magazine quotes “a source close to” Simpson who said, “He put off the doctors for weeks after he first started experiencing the symptoms because he was afraid of what they would find.”

The 66-year-old has been in a Nevada prison since 2008, serving a 33-year sentence for assault, robbery and kidnapping.

The Washington Times reports that Simpson’s health has been deteriorating for years. “He’s gained weight since his imprisonment, and also suffers from blurred vision, stuttering and failing hearing,” according to the paper.

The Enquirer has sounded the alarm about Simpson’s medical issues before. Six months ago, the magazine reported that the former football star had a severe case of diabetes.
