It appears that the prosecutors went out of their way to “throw the book” at OJ and stretch the meaning of various statutes to cover OJ’s seemingly rather limited crimes in this case. Just because so many people (including me) feel that OJ should be in jail for the murders, maybe it’s not good to establish a precedent of non-proportional justice based on what the authorities “know” someone got away with in a previous case.

I see this is the flip-side of "jury nullification", which was the ONLY reason O.J. was still walking the streets these past 13 years. There is no doubt that the prosecution threw every charge in the book they could at him in order to get this murderer back in jail where he belongs. Personally, I see nothing wrong with that and neither did the jury. None of the charges were "made up" though I concede if this was an ordinary citizen in the same circumstances, the prosecution probably would have been less zealous pursuing these charges and the defendant probably would have ended up with probation or maybe just a couple years in jail something.

As for O.J., he was pretty darn stupid for hiring gunmen to terrorize and rob those people even if he thought he was just stealing his own property back. But because of that jury nullification for murder back in L.A. (it's okay for black people to murder white people), O.J. felt as though he had the right to rob and kidnap them too. But as he found out the hard way, Nevada ain't L.A.

May he rot in jail the rest of his life where he belongs.

The only thing that suprises me is why they would have a Sen. Harry Reid from Nevada.

Reid has the backing of corrupt casinos and the mob. He sold himself to many Nevada citizens as a clean Mormon - and they bought it.

I’m reminded of a line from the movie “Barbershop” ...

“Ass so big, it look like two midgets in a sleeping bag!”

Comcast has a video of Simpson's reaction to the all 12 "Guilty" counts on video.

View Simpson's Reaction

Check out the clerk reading the guilty counts. She is cute - probably a former Vegas show girl.

Gee, now that he's a convicted felon (12 times, no less) do you think the city of Buffalo will finally take his disgraced name down from the stadium wall or will they "compartmentalize" this latest conviction -- just as they did when he was convicted in civil court as being a double murderer -- from the fact he was, decades ago, a fine football player?

(I bet the city of Buffalo would be more likely to remove his disgraced name from a place of public honor if he was, say, an outspoken critic of gun control laws or of no smoking ordinances.)

Looks like justice served was a little too much for the lady.

Those kids we were all concerned about back in the day have now become shadow’s of their father. Frequent run in’s with the police, temper problems, and become friends with militant black activists.

Another lost generation...

Simpson will be in solitary for a very very long time. I think the only thing he realized when the kuffs were put on last night is his nine lives were all used up. No more trips to the golf course, no more cocaine parties with champagne, no more white women strippers, no more trips to the beaches of Oahu...it’s over Juice...over...over...over.

Since he got away with murder, why wouldn’t he think he could get away with entering a person’s hotel room with a gun and terrorizing them?

I’ll bet it just became a lot easier for Ron Goldman to have OJ’s assets seized. Vegas ain’t Florida.
