Linda Deutsch has seen her share of O.J. including the hopefully the "final act"

By LINDA DEUTSCH

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Thirteen years to the day after being acquitted of killing his wife and her friend in Los Angeles, O.J. Simpson was found guilty of robbing two sports-memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room.

The 61-year-old former football star was convicted of all 12 counts late Friday after jurors deliberated for more than 13 hours. He released a heavy sigh as the charges were read and was immediately taken into custody.

Simpson, who went from American sports idol to celebrity-in-exile after his murder acquittal, could spend the rest of his life in prison.

His attorney said he would appeal.

Many people considered the four-week trial justice delayed. Simpson was cleared in 1995 of murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, in one of the most sensational trials of the 20th century, but was later found liable for the deaths in a civil case.

"I don't like to use the word payback," defense attorney Yale Galanter said. "I can tell you from the beginning my biggest concern ... was whether or not the jury would be able to separate their very strong feelings about Mr. Simpson and judge him fairly and honestly."

The Hall of Fame football star was convicted of kidnapping, armed robbery and 10 other charges for gathering up five men a year ago and storming into a room at a hotel-casino, where the group seized several game balls, plaques and photos. Prosecutors said two of the men with him were armed; one of them said Simpson asked him to bring a gun.

Simpson's co-defendant, Clarence "C.J." Stewart, 54, also was found guilty on all charges and taken into custody.

Simpson showed little emotion as officers handcuffed him and walked him out of the courtroom. His sister, Carmelita Durio, sobbed behind him in the arms of Simpson's friend, Tom Scotto, who said "I love you" as Simpson passed by. As spectators left the courtroom, Durio collapsed.

Jurors made no eye contact with the defendants as they entered the courtroom. They declined to answer questions after the verdict was read.

Galanter said his client had expected the outcome, and in a courthouse conversation with an Associated Press reporter on Thursday, Simpson had implied as much.

Simpson said he was "afraid that I won't get to go to my kids' college graduations after I managed to get them through college."

.......and their mom should be here still to share in this stage of their children's life.

How stupid can you be? You get away with a double murder where your DNA is all over the place then you get involved with a 2 bit armed holdup over some memorabilia. The defense should have dug up Johnny Cockroach but I dont think his race baiting would go over for a Las Vegas jury like it did for an LA jury 13 years ago. Rot away the years OJ!!

He has fallen farther than Pete Rose. There he was in court facing a decision that could send him away for the rest of his life and he had one family member and one friend in the audience. Pathetic!

The Obama campaign will be using OJ's conviction as a method to turn out the Black vote in Nevada.

"OJ was wrongly convicted by a racist white Las Vegas jury. We need an African-American in the White House to finally ensure justice for our people in the courts."
