He committed crimes, which included taking people away while he had a gun brandished. These facts were presented to a jury who agreed with them and found him guilty.

OJ, irrespective of what happened before, is getting what he deserves in this case. He picked the wrong town, he picked the wrong state to carry on his nefarious business.

I agree with what Vincent Bugliosi said (to paraphrase):

As far as I'm concerned, he's Simpson. Anyone that cuts up two human beings like sides of beef is entitled to endearing nicknames.

The irony is that he was hoisted on his own petard. He loves being the center of attention for his dwindling number of hangers-on, and they in turn love making money off him. So they tripped over each other trying to tape and memorialize the entire event. Aside from your basic liquor store or 7-11 type incidents, most of these crimes don’t have audio of the event or video of the thugs entering and leaving. Then audio of them all sitting around laughing about it afterward. People need to understand that this is a huge amount of evidence for a case of this type, and the average thug would have been convicted as well. It’s lucky that nobody was inadvertantly shot or injured during this incident, what with all those guys crammed into one room while tempers were flaring. This was no cordial drop in to recover his family photos, and prisons are full of guys who could say they had a good reason for what they did. People in OJ’s world bought into the Teflon OJ aura and figured that as long as they were just helping out The Juice, the pesky NV laws didn’t apply to the situation.
