Once a sociopath, always a sociopath. If you get away with murder, you think you can get away with anything. Eventually, his psychopathology was going to get him nailed.

"OJ will convert to Islam and garner much support from his old Hollywood friends."

Yeah, it was an "honor" killing, THAT's the ticket!

“I wonder if some real bad ass will make OJ a trophy prison wife....”

Nah. I think celebs are separated from the general prison population.

I guess he counted on the court system to fail like it did in the Nicole Brown case. I would be interested in hearing from his kids. This man is clearly demented. THe courts forced the Browns to give him those kids. I hope he didn’t totally screw them up.

One thing about a plea deal, you can not appeal the conviction. I would venture to say that his conviction will be appealed and he will be out in less than three.

O. J. may have been able to outrun the UCLA Bruin defense, but he couldn’t outrun the law.

Let this be a lesson to B.O.!

Everyone was on the same page in this railroading. Cops on tape said it was belated justice. The prosecutors have NEVER prosecuted people for confronting friends, who stole their crap and the judge slipped in her truth by saying that none of this has anything to do with retribution. Uhh, why'd you have to mention THAT, then?
When the county law pins a big crime on the local ne'er do well, loser, for bad things he has probably done, it is wrong. It is no dif in this case.

Question, prior to the armed robbery, who spent the most time in prison, O. J., Martha Stewart, or Leona Helmsley ?

Stupid Simpson’s biggest mistake was not committing the armed Robbery in Baltimore, Maryland.

"Everyone was on the same page in this railroading."

I suppose that OJ was railroaded into gathering his armed posse and storming that hotel room? What's a little armed robbery and kidnapping amongst friends, right? It was only a friendly confrontation ... they were all gonna go get a beer afterward!.

Sheesh. OJ finally found a county, a jury and a judge that think the laws mean something. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

And used weapons to do so?

No one was railroaded, OJ got exactly what every other thug would have gotten.

“Everyone was on the same page in this railroading.”

Then Al Capone was “railroaded” on tax evasion charges.

Well, for sure I did not mean to imply 'remorse' for his victims; only his remorse at his being caught and for having to pay. ..so far.

That said; I understand he will be in 'minimum security'.(?) If so; interesting and 'fortunate' for him. ..
