Has it been thirteen years? Wow!
Where did the time go? I was working in downtown L.A. at the time and I would pass the O.J. souvenir stands on my way past the court house.
I kept meaning to buy the watch with Judge Ito's face at 12 and a white Bronco on the second hand.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Jurors in the O.J. Simpson trial reached a verdict Friday after working into the night, deliberating the fate of the former football star and a co-defendant accused of robbing two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a casino hotel room.
"We have a verdict," said Michael Sommermeyer, spokesman for the Clark County District Court. He said it would be read after all the defendants, lawyers and prosecutors arrived at the court.
The jury reached a decision after deliberating for more than 13 hours.

The sad thing is if he had not been so intent on hiding his fortune from the Goldman's he would still be a free man.
I bet he has one heck of an appeal planned.
He was already taken into custody.
Sentencing is in December. If the ruling stands, he will be in prison for the rest of his life.

The kidnapping charge carries a minimum 15 year prison term, and I believe the armed robbery is a 5 year minimum. Then, the other 10 have additional time.

Posted: 10/4/08 at 10:43amYes. It's always very satisfying to see Karma played out. He should rot in prison for the rest of his life. And I hope he lives for a loooooooong time.

Why Blue, how very unlike you to make such a remark!
I totally agree.
#21re: OJ Simpson - Guilty!
Posted: 10/4/08 at 7:05pmIt would be Schadenfreude if we were a little gleeful with Nicole Brown's murder. But being gleeful that the murderer is going to prison is called Karma.
#22re: OJ Simpson - Guilty!
Posted: 10/4/08 at 7:12pmI think schadenfreude is delight you feel when due karma kicks in.
#23re: OJ Simpson - Guilty!

Not so much. Schadenfreude is specifically delight in the misfortune of others. But what's happening to OJ isn't misfortune so much as justice. Maybe it's a little bit schadenfreude, but its definitely not the primary thing anyone's feeling here.
