A whining OJ Simpson pleaded for mercy from the Judge today. Simpson was convicted of armed kidnapping and armed robbery in Las Vegas. The judge sentenced Simpson, and his accomplice, to 16 years in prison with Simpson eligible for parol after 6 years. Simpson received the minimum sentence for his crimes. It is refreshing when the court applies the law, rather than acting on personal bias like happened in his double murder trial years ago in California.

On Friday a Nevada Judge denied a request by OJ Simpson for a new trial. OJ, who was convicted along with codefendant Clarence Stewart in October, were also denied bail before they are sentenced on December 5. Both criminals face mandatory prison time, with a maximum penalty of life in prison.

We’ll see if justice will be finally served.

OJ Simpson (61) posed for what will hopefully be his last mug shot following his conviction in October on 12 charges, which include armed robbery and kidnapping. Simpson will be sentenced on December 5, and could spend a minimum of five years to a maximum of life in the Nevada state prison. This was a long time coming, but at least now some families will have closure.

O.J. Simpson was found GUILTY on all 12 counts in his Las Vegas trial, including conspiracy to commit a crime, robbery, assault, and kidnapping with a deadly weapon. He may have been acquitted of murder 13 years ago, but now he might spend the rest of his life in prison. CNN reports:

The jury of nine men and three women, none of them African-American, began deliberations Friday after hearing from 22 witnesses over 12 days of testimony. Chief among the witnesses were seven of the nine people inside Room 1203 of the Palace Station Hotel and Casino for the September 13, 2007 confrontation.

The evidence included testimony from the two dealers, four co-defendants who cut plea deals and cooperated with prosecutors and hours of often-profane, crackling, secretly recorded audio tapes.

Prosecutors alleged that the men, led by Simpson, burst into the room, flashed a gun and threatened memorabilia dealers Bruce Fromong and Al Beardsley.

The men then filled two pillowcases with Simpson trinkets, signed Pete Rose baseballs and Joe Montana lithographs. Simpson’s defense attorneys maintained their client was merely trying to retrieve personal photographs and other mementos that belonged to him.

Neither Simpson nor his co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart testified during the trial.

O.J.’s only hope for mercy now, would be to apply for a pardon if Barack Hussein Obama is elected President.

The memorabilia dealer, Mike Gilbert, who taped an armed confrontation with OJ Simpson, and man accused of stealing OJ’s stuff in Las Vegas, wrote a book.

In the book Gilbert claims O.J. confessed to murdering his ex wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman after smoking pot, taking a sleeping pill, and drinking a beer. Gilbert claims OJ told him he didn’t bring a knife to his ex-wife’s apartment on June 12, 1994, but, "If she hadn’t opened that door with a knife in her hand … she’d still be alive."

OJ’s attorney responded by saying:

"Gilbert is a delusional drug addict who needs money."

I agree. If Gilbert knew OJ was guilty all this time, and didn’t say anything, then he’s just as bad as OJ. Whoever gave Gilbert a book deal should suffer the same fate as the woman who gave OJ a book deal.
