O.J. Simpson Verdict: Guilty

A Las Vegas jury found O.J. Simpson guilty Friday for robbing two Las Vegas memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room. The verdict came 13 years to the day after Simpson was acquitted for the murder of ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in Los Angeles.

Simpson could spend the rest of his life in jail for kidnapping, armed robbery and 10 other charges in the incident that took place in September of 2007. The Hall of Fame football star barged into a hotel room with a group of men and seized game balls, plaques and photos that Simpson claimed belonged to him. Prosecutors said two of the men with him were armed and one of them said Simpson asked him to bring a gun.

Simpson was immediately taken into custody after the verdict was read. In an interview on Thursday Simpson had implied that he expected to be found guilty and said that he was "afraid that I won't get to go to my kids' college graduations after I managed to get them through college."

I don't feel sorry for Simpson but I do feel for his four children, especially his two youngest children with Nicole, Sydney and Justin. They will now not only have to see their father go to jail possibly for the rest of his life, but were only 6 and 9 when their mother was murdered by Simpson - I mean, an unknown assailant.

Sentencing is set for December 5.

What do OJ, Spector and Spears Have in Common? L.A. Law.

Law and disorder. What the hell are my tax dollars doing anyway? The court met with Britney even though she was late. Real late. Yeah, they do that for everyone, right?

Commissioner Gordon is starting to sound like Charlie Brown. Wishy-washy.

Even though he continues to say that Britney Spears is a danger to her children and reprimands her for failure to comply with court orders he still granted her the right to overnight visitations with her boys Sean Preston and Jayden James. Apparently there is to be a monitor.

Spears' camp asked that the monitor be her mother Lynne Spears. Really. Her camp asked this. This is the same mother that Britney wouldn't allow near her children.

Kevin Federline agreed. I'm guessing he said, "Yo."

It's a freakin' soap-opera down at the courthouse, y'all.
