The key to the O.J. caper could be Walter Alexander, who was arrested last night and charged with two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, one count of conspiracy to commit robbery with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon and one count of burglary with a deadly weapon.
We spoke with Alexander an hour ago, and he said he was a close, longtime friend of Simpson's.
TMZ just got off the phone with Robert Rentzer (pictured), Alexander's lawyer. Rentzer says he spoke with Alexander yesterday, and after a brief conversation, instructed Alexander to fly to L.A. to meet with him. On his way to the Las Vegas airport, cops arrested Alexander.
While Alexander was in custody, Rentzer spoke with the investigating officer and the D.A. Cops asked Alexander if he would consent to a search of his luggage, but Rentzer instructed him to refuse.
Rentzer tells us he has already informed the D.A. he was interested in a plea bargain if his client had any involvement. Rentzer says he told cops his client would cooperate if they would release Alexander on his own recognizance (without bail). We're told at 4:00 AM this morning, Alexander scored an O.R. release.
Rentzer tells us he's meeting with Alexander tomorrow, adding, "If I feel they can prove a case against my client, naturally I will plea bargain this." In lay terms, that means Alexander would turn on Simpson.
Rentzer repped Rodney King after he was arrested in the infamous 1991 stop.

This is BS. OJ got off. Get over it people. That crappy suit and photo's belongs to OJ. He will be set free. Period. It's a done deal.
Love you Bravie.
Can anyone believe on someone who turns to spare himself a severe sentence?
Why you don't pick your friends wisely - and you don't learn from past mistakes....
YOU PAY!!!!!!!!
It about time!!!
For the Goldman's and the Brown's.
Now you will have vindication.
I hope they lock him up and throw away the key.
THese sternies are mean people who have no feelings:
Lost VEGAS hasn't moved on OJ's arrest for one of two possible reasons.
A. Law enforcement is afraid of a riot
B. The mob is involved and is protecting SIMPSON
I love Marie Callenders frozen dinners..Not only very tasty and filling..They keep me regular.
Hey Star, slavery was years ago. Get over it and stop expecting killers to get off because they're black.
OJ arrested! You know the Goldman's are laughing their asses off.
I knew it was just a matter of time before O.J. would blow it!!
Could someone advise the idiot poster that O.J. didn't "get off". He was found guilty in a civil trial and ordered to pay 30 million.
Hopefully this will land his ugly butt in jail where he has belonged since he started beating and killing women.
I am SICK of OJ.
I am SICK of news and the leading story is OJ.
The only people that are mad at OJ are the bigoted white folks that think he needs to go to jail at all cost. --- For any CRIME. Anything.
Since they feel he killed a white woman - then they are going to get him at ANY COST for anything.
Apparently was trying to get HIS Stuff back.. His clothes - his pictures - his stuff.
Don't forget some person or persons broke in his Brentwood Home after the trial.
They need to be arresting this memorabilia dealer -- for trafficing stolen property.
It doesn't matter where you got the stolen goods from - if you are caught with them, and they are not yours - and you have them up for sale - then you should get arrested.
The police let the white people sell his property that was stolen out of his house, he tries to get it back...and he ends up going to jail.
This is pretty typical- remember Lindsay Lohan - driving crazy down the streeet chasing after her assistant --- when the police come - She says - "the Black Guy was driving".
JUSTICE IN AMERICA = JUST US
Keep in mind people that O.J didn't get off....
He was found not guilty by a jury of his peers, also known as American Citizens, the same citizens that voted that nit wit of a President into office not once but twice.....
Thats the problem with the American Justice system, they let free thinking Americans have a say in it and sometimes when you let just about anyone sit on the jury your outcome is not justice at all.
The man was freed by the people and now the people want to take it back, but its too late for that move forward people.
