LAS VEGAS – O.J. Simpson has been found guilty on all charges in the gunpoint robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers in a Las Vegas casino hotel room more than a year ago.
The 61-year-old former football player faces up to life in prison.
A somber Simpson released a heavy sigh as the charges were read Friday in Clark County District Court. He was immediately taken into custody.
The verdict comes 13 years to the day after Simpson was acquitted of killing his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, in Los Angeles.
Co-defendant Clarence “C.J.” Stewart also was found guilty on all charges and taken into custody.
The men were tried on 12 criminal charges.

“Had he not with the crows been found, he would have been home safe and sound.”
WOW! OJ was definitely set up; he knew they were just waiting to catch him in the act. He was a fool for letting is guard down. OJ should of just go to the wedding and go home. If I was OJ and Johnny got me off that double murder charges, anytime anybody was looking for me they would of find me in the cathedral.
I would not be surprised if he was set up by Ron Goldmans family. His father had serious intentions of making OJ pay for “killing” his son. Don’t forget that Las Vegas is a “mob” town where anything can be bought for a price. How convenient it is that the whole incident was recorded.
Plain and simple OJ was a fool. He should have never gone with that bunch of loser to collect his memorabilia. I don’t believe OJ was playing with a full deck, he was living in la la land and in his mind he thought he was invincible. He dodged the bullet before, but a little birdie should have reminded him that Johnny isn’t here to save his butt anymore. When the verdict was read, most people did not know that goes to show people are tired of OJ and his crap!!!!
Way to go GCF !! Yours is the best post ever…..lol
Had O.J. not been caught, when the CROWS were found, surely he would have been safe and sound!
He life gift was eluding people and getting away on the football field. Finally he wakes up out of his dream, and finds out this is the real world, and Johnnie Cochran is dead.
Oh Yeah!!! OJ had it coming! Johnny Cochran (RIP)got him off for killing his ex and her lover……but God dont like ugly…..your sins will always find you.
Altec OJ was his own enemy. If he had beaten these charges, eventually he would have done something else and eventually he would have landed in prison. He just would not stop! It was almost like his purpose in life was to go to jail, but he kept trying to run away from it. Well you only can run for so long. He has disappointed so many peolple who have supported him during the murder trial. What a sad legacy.
Let me get this straight. OJ could kill 2 people and get away with it, but the man cant “teif” without getting caught? LOL. Who say God doesnt have a sense of humor?
Life is really something else. Your deeds will always catch up with your.
