Las Vegas Jury Finds O.J. Simpson Guilty of All Twelve Counts Posted Oct 4th 2008 2:29AM by Sportz Assassin (author feed) Filed under: Bills, NFL Police Blotter, NFL Hall of Fame
A Las Vegas jury has found Orenthal James Simpson guilty of all 12 counts for which he was charged. The charges stem from an armed robbery and kidnapping of sports memorabilia dealers in a Vegas casino hotel last year. A somber Simpson released a heavy sigh as the charges were read Friday in Clark County District Court. He was immediately taken into custody.
The verdict comes 13 years to the day after Simpson was acquitted of killing his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, in Los Angeles.
Co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart also was found guilty on all charges and taken into custody.
When the verdicts were read, Simpson just sighed and nodded his head. As he arrived at the courthouse for the verdict, he told a CNN reporter that he was "apprehensive". He now faces life in prison when sentencing begins on December 5th.
Again, this verdict came exactly 13 years after the day that Simpson was acquitted for the murder of his ex-wife and Ronald Goldman. You can only imagine the emotions of those families this morning.
I know he is guilty of these charges, but did the guys he held hostage really steal his memorabilia? O.J. said he was there to take back his stolen stuff. Was he correct about the stolen goods, and if so, were the dealers charged, or were they given a pass to testify against O.J.?

To think he still has not payed any of the money that was won by the murder victims family. Also he had the nerve to write a book saying how he would have done the murder if he did the murder. What a scumbag.
I remember it well during that time most did not really know if he did it or not. It was all speculation. Now years later everyone and there mother knows he did it. The did not spend one day mourning for his lost wife. Who supposedly was the love of his life? Good riddens O.J.
