O.J. Simpson Goes Down Bigtime

Posted Oct 4th 2008 10:50AM by TMZ Staff

O.J. SimpsonThirteen years to the day after OJ Simpson was acquitted of murder, he had the book thrown at him -- Simpson has been convicted on 12 criminal counts, including kidnapping, armed robbery and burglary. He faces life in prison.

Simpson has been remanded into custody -- which means he's in jail.

The Las Vegas jury delivered its verdict just before 11:00 PM PT.

Simpson and his co-defendant -- also found guilty on all counts -- confronted a memorabilia collector in a Las Vegas hotel to get Simpson's stuff back, with the help of a gun.

48. Ozzie Fumo, a defense attorney on Channel 8 said he will be on the second floor of the jail. He said that he saw the cells last week and that the cells were ready for OJ and CJ. I am takiang great pleasure watching over and over again as they handcuff him and lead him away. I hope he never leaves prison.

49. October 4th, OJ is found guilty, November 4th, Obama will be President-Elect, bringing things right side up, so this country can heal many wrongs and move forward with liberty and justice for all . Well, for OJ, it will be justice with not so much liberty.

52. When you get away with TWO murders, you think you can get away with anything. I am sure OJ thought he would breeze through this trial and get off like he did at his first trial. It took a long time coming, but it came.

It's ironic that it was 13 years to the day when he should have gotten life for, imo, murder but was acquitted he was found guilty tonight and will probably get life for a lesser crime. Payback is a bi#@h.

54. Which ever way you look at it, karma, poetic justice, or "vengence is mine", OJ is finally going to jail. He has no one to blame but himself and his ridiculous sense of entitlement. It must suck to be him at 62 yrs old after a great career, getting ready to spend the golden years in prison. Wow.

55. Wow, 13 really is an unlucky number - at least for OJ. B-bye Juice. The man seems to really like court rooms and jail.

56. All you people thinking that he deserves this are no different then the people of his jury who found him guilt on all charges for something that happened 13 years ago to the day. I watched the entire trial and there is NO way in heck that they came up with the verdicts they did if they were honest! It was pay back time for OJ no doubt about it....that's what sucks about our justice system! That fact is that now there are two kids without a mom and now without a dad too....and all because the jury took the law into their own hands! I am a firm believer of KARMA....and maybe O.J. is getting his now, but I'd hate to be one of the 12 people who rendered this verdict tonight...because their KARMA will one day catch up with them as well! GOOD LUCK!

57. I hope he hears his murdered wife's please for help in his head for the rest of his life.

58. He will not last a month in jail. I venture to say he will commit suicide or be murdered. For 13 years he has lived as a free man with blood on his hands. May God forgive him of his sins and may Nicole and Ron rest in peace.

59. Hey black guys see what happens when you murder a white woman? You get your butthole poked for the rest of your life! Stay away from our beautiful white women and quit pushing on them so you can be with them and dirty them up. The only reason you want them is because you want to get back at the white man and make him pay. Stop hurting innocent white women!

60. This proves alot of people are not over what happened to Nicole and Ron,this isnt right at all. This jury are bought and paid for BIG TIME. Las Vegas stinks of sin and crime and what ever else and these people convict O.J. of this stupid crap! PLEASE! LET OJ GO........this is not fair at all and most people wanted him hung over Nicole and Ron ,i hope your all happy now.
