O.J. Simpson Headed for the Slammer—Is it Justice Delayed?

Can you really call it a coincidence? Thirteen years to the day after being acquitted of killing his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman in one of the most publicized trials of the 20th century, O.J. Simpson was found guilty of robbing two sports-memorabilia dealers at gunpoint. Late yesterday a jury found the former football star guilty on all 12 counts, including kidnapping, armed robbery and 10 other charges stemming from Simpson’s decision to storm into a Las Vegas hotel room with a couple of associates–guns drawn–in an effort to seize several game balls, plaques and photos … Continue reading

O.J. Simpson’s in Hot Water Again

For some reason, O.J. Simpson seems to have a need to be in the spotlight, whether it be in a good way (with his football accomplishments and acting career) or in a bad way (the murder of former wife Nicole Simpson and friend Ron Goldman and the “fictitious” book). Once again, his name is in the headlines, but as you might guess, it is not in a good way. O.J. has been questioned by investigators of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in regards to a break-in of a hotel room. Sgt. John Loretto confirmed that there is an allegation … Continue reading

O.J. Tries To Juice The Goldman’s… Again

Most of the world won’t be shocked to hear the news that it is taking a judge to force O.J. Simpson to fork over money to the Goldman family. According to news reports, a Florida judge recently ruled that the former football star must give any money his attorney is holding for him to the family of murder victim Ronald Goldman to satisfy a multimillion-dollar wrongful death judgment. Simpson’s attorney is reportedly holding about $3,500 for Simpson in a client trust account.

O.J. Simpson Gets The Boot —Vows Revenge

If O.J. Simpson ever doubted that some people find him revolting, a recent incident at a packed restaurant may have set him straight. Then, again, this is O.J. we’re talking about, so I could be wrong—-judge for yourself. According to news reports, Simpson was dining at an upscale Louisville restaurant the night before the Kentucky Derby when the eatery’s owner approached the former NFL Hall of Famer and asked him to leave. Jeff Ruby told reporters he refused to serve Simpson because he is “sickened” by the attention Simpson still attracts. “I didn’t want to serve him because of my … Continue reading
