We haven’t been following his Las Vegas trial, but we’re definitely following his GUILTY verdict.
O.J. Simpson was cleared of murder 13 years ago, but now he faces life in prison for armed robbery and kidnapping.
The former NFL was found guilty on all 12 counts, including conspiracy to commit a crime, robbery, assault and kidnapping with a deadly weapon.
According to reports:
The jury of nine men and three women, none of them African-American, began deliberations Friday after hearing from 22 witnesses over 12 days of testimony. Chief among the witnesses were seven of the nine people inside Room 1203 of the Palace Station Hotel and Casino for the September 13, 2007 confrontation.
The evidence included testimony from the two dealers, four co-defendants who cut plea deals and cooperated with prosecutors and hours of often-profane, crackling, secretly recorded audiotapes.
Prosecutors alleged that the men, led by Simpson, burst into the room, flashed a gun and threatened memorabilia dealers Bruce Fromong and Al Beardsley.
The men then filled two pillowcases with Simpson trinkets, signed Pete Rose baseballs and Joe Montana lithographs. Simpson’s defense attorneys maintained their client was merely trying to retrieve personal photographs and other mementos that belonged to him.
Neither Simpson nor his co-defendant Clarence “C.J.” Stewart testified during the trial
All this for a little memorabilia?
Have fun in jail, fucktard!
