OJ busted for stealing his own memorabilia

I am required by the Mandatory Blogging Act of 2003 to post about this.

O.J. Simpson was arrested Sunday and faces multiple felony charges in an alleged armed robbery of collectors involving the former football great’s sports memorabilia, authorities said.

Prosecutors were planning to charge Simpson with two counts of robbery with use of a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery, burglary with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon and coercion, said Clark County District Attorney David Roger.

A conviction on the most serious charge, robbery with use of a deadly weapon, could bring a sentence of three to 35 years for each count, he said.

“He is facing a lot of time,” Roger said.

Simpson was being transferred to a detention center for booking, Dillon said. Dillon said he did not know whether Simpson would be able to post bail and be released Sunday.

“He was very cooperative, there were no issues,” Dillon said.

Choose your own joke here:

“If the mementos don’t fit, you must acquit.”

“Where’s Al Cowlings when you really need him?”

“I plan to spend my time finding the real memorabilia thieves.”

Feel free to add on, there’s got to be plenty more.

Simpson, 60, has said he and other people with him were retrieving items that belonged to him. Simpson has said there were no guns involved and that he went to the room at the casino only to get stolen mementos that included his Hall of Fame certificate and a picture of the running back with J. Edgar Hoover.

Simpson told The Associated Press on Saturday that he did not call the police to help reclaim the items because he has found the police unresponsive to him ever since his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, were killed in 1994.

“The police, since my trouble, have not worked out for me,” he said, noting that whenever he has called the police “It just becomes a story about O.J.”

You know, I don’t think I can add anything to that.

    Nothing but hipe—The police dept are very excited about all the attention. OJ was NOT even hand cuffed.Look at the video- only one hand cuffed for the camera`s.
    Looks like CNN needs something new to flog.
    Surely there is something more important to watch, like paint drying.
    Lets get a life and move away from following SLUGS like this guy.
