OJ Simpson Sentenced to 16 Years in Prison

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 18:37:11 +0000

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.

OJ Simpson Retrial Denied

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 Mug Shot – Final Mug Shot

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 16:27:19 +0000

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.

OJ Simpson Guilty on All Counts

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 06:34:22 +0000

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.

OJ Simpson Confessed to Murder Man Claims

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 10 May 2008 19:14:54 +0000

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.

OJ Simpson Wants to be on The Apprentice

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 02:50:43 +0000

OJ Simpson has asked to join the cast of Celebrity Apprentice. The show says OJ’s request is "under thoughtful consideration." Donald Trump will do anything for ratings, but would he go so low as to put OJ on the show?

O.J. Simpson Bail Doubled

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 18:23:16 +0000

At today’s bail revocation hearing, Clark County District Court Judge Jackie Glass was all over O.J. Simpson, strongly chastising him for not paying his previous $125,000 bail, saying, "I don’t know, Mr. Simpson, what the heck you were thinking, or maybe that’s the problem, you weren’t," adding, "I don’t know if it’s just arrogance. I don’t know if it’s ignorance. But you’ve been locked up at the Clark County Detention Center since Friday because of arrogance or ignorance, or both." With that, she doubled Simpson’s bail to $250,000. She told him he was to stay put in jail until 15% of the bail, in cash, was paid. O.J.’s attorney told the court that Simpson’s home would be put up as collateral.

Glass also reminded Simpson that he was not to contact any other defendants or leave the country. She told him if he violated any of the terms of his bail again, he’d be locked up until his trial begins on April 7.

Simpson’s bail was only doubled despite the prosecution’s request that the Juice’s bail be raised to $1 million and that he be placed under house arrest.

Judge Jackie Glass said the fact that they were back in court today was "mind boggling" after she heard testimony from O.J.’s bondsman Miguel Pereira that he had received "not one cent" from O.J., not even the $40 filing fee. Judge Glass also called O.J. "ignorant and arrogant."

Pereira testified that Simpson "hasn’t paid any money on [the bail]." It is standard practice that the defendant post a premium, or down payment, of 15% to the bail bondsman. While Pereira described the November day he received a voicemail from O.J. asking him to pass along a expletive-laced message to his co-defendant, the recording in question was played before the court, most of the trial was spent talking about how O.J. had managed to sidestep any financial risk to gain his first release from jail.

That Simpson didn’t pay anything, "doesn’t make a whole heck of a lot sense to the court," Judge Glass said. Simpson’s attorney said he would put up his house as a lien against the bail but Judge Glass said that wasn’t enough.

"I don’t want him out of the jail until he posts that 15%," she insisted to O.J.’s lawyer who said it would take a few days to raise the money and it was unclear who the new bondsman would be. She said that Simpson had "been locked up…since Friday because of arrogance or ignorance or both." When asked if he understood, a tense Simpson said: "I understand 100%, your honor."

Ignorance is no excuse for breaking the law.

OJ Simpson Bail Revoked Going Back to Jail

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 21:06:43 +0000

The Clark County District Attorney’s office filed a motion to revoke O.J. Simpson’s bail for violating a no contact order. According to the court docs, O.J. directed his bail bondsmen, Miguel Periera, to contact fellow defendant Clarence Stewart:

"Hey Miguel, It’s me … I just want, want CJ to know that the whole thing all the time he was tellin’ me that s**t, ya know, I hope he was telling me the truth don’t be trying to change the mother f***ing s**t now, mother f***ing a**holes I’m tired of this s**t. Fed up with mother f***ers changing what they told me Alright?"

FOX News reporter Adam Housley is reporting that the O.J. will fly to Vegas from Florida today, and will arrive in the early evening. According to Housley, the bondsman actually revoked the bail, which he legally can do, because he learned that the Clark County D.A. has filed a motion to revoke O.J.’s bail, there’s a hearing set for Wednesday.

Kumari Fulbright Arrested Mug Shot

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 00:47:58 +0000

Kumari Fulbright (25) was Miss Pima County in 2005 and Miss Desert Sun in 2006. She also competed for Miss Arizona, but she’s now best known for kidnapping, and torturing her boyfriend. Last month Kumari, and some men, kidnapped her boyfriend, stole $600 from him, and tortured him. Court documents say Kumari bit her boyfriend several times, stuff a knife in her boyfriend’s ear, beat him, and pointed a gun at him threatening to shoot and kill him. The ordeal lasted 10 hours, after which the boyfriend escaped. She may have thought she could get away with her crime, since Kumari is a law student and clerks for a District Judge in Arizona. The picture above is her mug shot. Isn’t it amazing how she puts on that sad face, yet she’s tough enough to torture and threaten to kill a man who is tied up. Fry her. Below she is posing for a calendar with … yes … that’s a big gun in her hands. Kind of reminds me of the time OJ Simpson was trained on how to use a big knife for a movie role, just before his ex wife and her boy friend were killed … with a big knife.
