O.J. Again!?

Well, looks like O.J. Simpson's making the headlines once again. This time around it's for "kidnapping and robbery" however, a step down from murder. Well at least he's toned it down this time.

I can still remember in highschool when I was younger, time seemed to stand still when all the teachers in the school paused, the entire school (staff and students) sat on the edge of their seats, listening to the Simpson verdict with mixed responses of Yeah!, or Boo! as Simpson survived a hit-and-miss verdict with a simple 30million dollar fine (of which little has been paid).

Today however the charges are "kidnapping and robbery, along with 10 other charges". The robbery charged was adressed by defence with the typical "[they] belonged to [him]". Oh puh-lease, if you're going to make an excuse as lame as that, you could at least say oh, I don't know "I was intoxicated and thought I was in my house". A form of mistaken identity perhaps, anything!

What I thought was great, was the attitude (of expectance) on Simpson's part as the guilty verdicts were being read. Simpson: "sighed heavily as [... he was] found guilty on all 12 charges, including felony kidnapping, armed robbery and conspiracy[...]". This is not the actions of an innocent man.

-The issue remains, that of the unpaid 30 million dollar fine... why rob and kidnapp when you've got this kind of money lying around, or maybe he just got hit one too many times in the head during his football days... who knows?
