Prosecutor: O.J. Simpson violated terms of Bail
LAS VEGAS, Nevada (CNN) -- O.J. Simpson was taken into custody in Florida on allegations that he violated terms of his bail by trying to talk a co-defendant out of cooperating in a Las Vegas armed robbery case, court documents say.
O.J. Simpson faces trial on 12 counts, including robbery and conspiracy.
Simpson, 60, is to go before a Nevada judge on Wednesday at the request of Clark County District Attorney David Roger.
The prosecutor filed a motion Friday to revoke Simpson's $125,000 bail.
Court documents obtained by CNN say Simpson allegedly tried to reach co-defendant Clarence Stewart though his bail bondsman. That was a violation of the terms of his release, according to a transcript of his bail hearing attached to the legal papers.
Authorities say they have a copy of a voicemail Simpson left for Stewart, the court documents say. Simpson is quoted as saying:
"I just want, want C.J. to know that the whole thing all the time he was tellin' me that (bleep), ya know. I hope he was telling me the truth. Don't be trying to change the mother (bleeping) (bleep) now, mother (bleeping) (bleep) holes. I'm tired of this (bleep). Fed up with the mother (bleepers) changing what they told me."
Stewart is not cooperating with prosecutors.

Witness tampering.
Throw away the key!
How the mighty have fallen. From the LAPD swat team on a nationwide broadcast to Miguel from “You Ring, We Spring”.
OJ is truly the gift that keeps on giving.
>......Muh Fuggah..................<
You need to take dat seegar outa you mout.
LOL!!
He must be a member of the Democrat Underground. That's the way they talk in there.
“get used to the color orange...they don’t call you The Juice for nothing now”
That is a good comparison
This is a joke. Really, first we would have to hear the entire telephone conversation. Obviously, they are not stating the entire conversation, because the statement was taken out of context. That little statement does not tell me OJ was trying to get any information to anyone. It seems like he was simply venting to me. I am not sticking up for anyone either. I am just stating the truth.
