O.J. Simpson Faces 20 Year Prison Term
Half Life ^ | 9/17/07

Posted on 09/17/2007 7:22:33 AM PDT by LdSentinal

Las Vegas authorities say that OJ Simpson could face up to 20 years in prison.

O.J. Simpson was arrested on Sunday, charged with multiple counts. Las Vegas police didn't say exactly what was on those video tapes showing OJ Simpson and other men entering a room at the Palace Station Hotel-Casino.

Police say that did a careful investigation despite the twisted stories that some of the witnesses told them.

Simpson is also heard on a phone answering message telling one of the victims, "Tell the police that there were no guns. I saw no guns. There were no guns." which only adds more counts of criminal charges.

O.J. Simpson could be in prison for decades, even up to 50 years depending on how many counts he's charged with. Police shed some light stating that the former pro football player could be in prison for 20 years.

It is also interesting to note that all those people who thought OJ Simpson was an innocent man for the 1994 killings of Nicole Brown Simpson, and Rob Goldman, are now shifting the other direction. While Simpson's criminal behavior started in 1994, he's had several run-ins with law enforcement for the past 14 years.

The book didn't help either. People who purchased the book are almost horrified by some of the credible writings that only the murderer would know.

As for posting bond, even if Simpson does post a 7 figure bond, the monies go to the Goldman and Brown families. Does OJ have money? A new witness has come forward to say that he assisted Simpson in moving monies to overseas bank accounts.

The plot thickens.

They were saying on the radio that O.J. is being held without bond because he’s a flight risk.

Now it goes to a Las Vegas jury. This should be entertaining.

“Maybe after an exhaustive search of every golf course in the country..”

Why was OJ banned from the golf course?

He had a wicked slice!

How old is OJ?

Simpson was born July 9, 1947. Simpson is 60 years old.

Google knows all.

I hope that the Goldman’s and the Brown’s are enjoying this recent turn of events.

Sometimes I think God must have a sense of humour.

All O.J. has to do is claim he’s a Muslim and a closet Homosexual. Then he’ll be released because he’ll be defended on the basis of religious bias and homophbic society.

With the proper ignorant, racist jury...

The chances of that happening in Las Vegas are not as great as Los Angeles.

Maybe he’ll find “the real killer” while he’s in prison.

Last night on Fox they called the sister right after the arrest and asked her about it.

You could hear the joy bubbling in her voice. I thought, that’s one happy lady.

Well, that takes care of that!

Laura Ingraham said this morning that “Juice” needs a “Bro” or a “Manzerre”.

Pretty funny stuff.

So, who is acting as OJ’s lawyer this time? Jackie Childs?

Maybe he can summon the ghost of Cochran:

“It’s just a tape, let him escape.”

The previous O.J. jury idiots ought to be sentenced to cleaning up gruesome crime scenes for a couple of years.
