Sep 17 2007OJ Simpson arrested

OJ Simpson was arrested Sunday for the incident last week where he allegedly broke into the Palace Station casino and stole some memorabilia at gunpoint. He was charged with two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, and conspiracy to commit a crime and burglary with a firearm, and is currently being held without bail. The AP reports:
The district attorney said he expected Simpson to ultimately be charged with seven felonies and one gross misdemeanor. If convicted of the booking charges, Simpson would face up to 30 years in state prison on each robbery count alone.
How sad would it be if OJ Simpson got away with murdering two people, but ended up getting life in prison because of some silly hijinks over sports memorabilia? It'd be like Hitler getting away with the Holocaust and then getting busted for running a red light. And, you know, if the the punishment for running a red was life in prison. Which it is. I went to law school so I'd know. Yale, in case you're wondering. And Harvard.

It is unfortunate that the blog does not post on Weekends.
It has been all over the blog sphere.
Of course, our society presumes innocence until judged guilty by a fair trial. So readers must keep this in mind.

Oh god, I hope I'm first, it would be the highlight of my life. All before now has been merely a warmup to the everlasting glory that is posting the first comment on a website... Help me, please, Jebus...
Is there some sort of celebrity contest to see who can be the most pathetic? Not sad pathetic, just pathetic, as in "Die already so we can stop hearing about you"? Because Britney and OJ seem to be neck and neck on that one.

Where is Al Cowling and the White Bronco when you need them???

@Miss Universe:
Fair trial? Good luck! Jury selection is going to be fun as hell for this one. Even IF they could find at least one person that doesn't know who OJ Simpson is, this should be the most karma-tastic biased trial in the history of ever. EV-AAAAAR!
Hrmm, maybe those illegal immigrants will come in handy this time around. OJ Who? Viva America! No green card!

it's so sick of him. the cover was changed to "I DID IT". they took out the IF.
10. stickykeys - September 17, 2007 11:36 AM
i like how he's kinda smiling. i imagine he's thinking: "Fuck you, criminal justice system of America. You are powerless against me."

"two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, and conspiracy to commit a crime and burglary with a firearm.... BLAH ABLAHA BLAH"
Too bad he forgot to shoot himself. In the face.
12. BGR - September 17, 2007 11:46 AM
No, it's like Capone going to prison for tax evasion.
13. Cowgirl - September 17, 2007 11:58 AM
So, did he go to the all-you-can-eat buffet before or after the robbery?

..the law of karma, says only this: `for every event that occurs, there will follow another event whose existence was caused by the first, and this second event will be pleasant or unpleasant according as its cause was skillful or unskillful.'

17. ph7 - September 17, 2007 12:24 PM
I kinda like OJ. Even if he did murder his wife.
18. wedgeone - September 17, 2007 12:52 PM
I don't care about his headless ex-wife - marry a nig and pay the consequences, whore - but sports memorabilia belongs to us, the fans, and that makes what he did a crime.

SMILING WON'T CHANGE THEIR OPINION!!

9: Actually if you look at the book close enough the IF is still there, its near the top of the I in small letters.
21. Bugman4045 - September 17, 2007 2:16 PM
So OJ shows up at his lawyers office in a Hawaiian sure with his bags packed. They look at him awkwardly and ask "What's up juice?"
O.J. smiles and says" They tell me I'm going to Cancun!"
"No, No, you misunderstood." says one lawyer, "You're going to can, coon."

He looks sad in the most recent photo.
In the first one, he looks emotionally dead.

Put the nigra in jail with the rest of them.
24. Donald Duck - September 17, 2007 4:01 PM
Crime is crime. The skin color of the alledged perpetrator should not be a concern.
Your racist comments show the true content of your character.
25. Dylan - September 17, 2007 4:57 PM
It is grammatically incorrect to start a sentence with "And"
"Which it is. I went to law school so I'd know. Yale, in case you're wondering. And Harvard."
Should have been
"Which it is. I went to law school so I'd know. Yale, in case you're wondering, And Harvard.".
Have a great day.
26. Teh Shmex - September 17, 2007 5:03 PM
But that "And" shouldn't have been in caps, sorry.
27. DottieDot - September 17, 2007 5:45 PM
You should have followed the last sentence with:
Yeah, Yeah, that's the ticket....
28. dylan number 25 is a douche-nozzle - September 17, 2007 5:46 PM
the title says it all...
and maybe in jail some lifer will slit OJ's throat and his dying thought will be...so this is how it feels.

#24 Negroes are highly over-represented in criminal activity, even when social-economic factors are considered. They bring decay and disorder with them wherever they go. I don't want them.

please give him a shot on da ELECTRIC CHAIR
33. Lor - September 18, 2007 1:21 PM
No one else has seemed to notice that he looks high as a frigging kite in this picture. Look at the one with the comparison to his old booking photo. Where the hell did the whites of his eyes go? Turned into a sickly yellow/red combo - DRUG HEAD!!!! Which would also explain how he could possibly be so stupid as to get mixed up in something like this.
34. Private Eye - September 18, 2007 6:32 PM
The moral of this story? Regardless if O.J.s statement to the police was truthful, he was down right stupid. Regardless if in fact he had actual criminal ‘intent’ to commit a crime? The bottom line is ~
If you don’t want the police involved, and desire a clandestine operation, investigation or a “sting operation;” Call the professionals. Call a Private Eye that has experience in undercover investigations, intelligence gathering and more importantly, sting operations. If this only requires the motel room phase; it would have still been very expensive. But it would have been a legal and much wiser long-term solution to his problem. O.J had a right to follow up on this lead (that his alleged stolen property was in this room.) But he should have NEVER been part of the process.

If he slips through the cracks again...SHAME ON THE SYSTEM. He is a worthless, arrogant piece of work!
I think beneath that fake smirk on his face is a smoldering lie buried deep within a hateful man. I bet he is full of rage underneath...just like when he killed Nicole and Ron.
And I don't care if one is White or Black...wrong is wrong any way you look at it.

please unless u dont belive in americas justice system he was aquitted.

If OJ had been white, he wouldn't be on trial right now..................he'd be in prison for double murder.
