O.J. Simpson Is Dumb.


Thirteen years to the day after being acquitted of killing his wife and her friend in Los Angeles, O.J. Simpson was found guilty of robbing two sports-memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room.
The 61-year-old former football star was convicted of all 12 counts late Friday after jurors deliberated for more than 13 hours. He released a heavy sigh as the charges were read and was immediately taken into custody.
Simpson, who went from American sports idol to celebrity-in-exile after his murder acquittal, could spend the rest of his life in prison.
His attorney said he would appeal.
Many people considered the four-week trial justice delayed. Simpson was cleared in 1995 of murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, in one of the most sensational trials of the 20th century, but was later found liable for the deaths in a civil case.
"I don't like to use the word payback," defense attorney Yale Galanter said. "I can tell you from the beginning my biggest concern ... was whether or not the jury would be able to separate their very strong feelings about Mr. Simpson and judge him fairly and honestly."

What is wrong with this man? He seems to think he's Above The Law, like he's Steven-frickin'-Seagal or some shit!
Is it just me or should he have just been sitting his ass down somewhere sipping his iced tea and sucking on a Werthers Original and whatever else old folks do? He should have been thanking his lucky stars and counting his damned blessings, but some people always want to be in the midst of some fuckery. I guess he wanted to go to prison, and I would bet good money that he will be getting his wish this time. Appeal my ass! They got him, and maybe this is long overdue.
