OJ Simpson GUILTY on all Charges in Sports Memorabilia Robbery in Vegas … The Glove Fit

GUILTY … THE GLOVE FIT THIS TIME!     File this one under, what goes OJ_Simpson_GUILTYaround comes around. Justice is finally served to OJ.

OJ Simpson has been found guilty on all charges stemming from the robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room. OJ was found guilty of kidnapping, armed robbery and 10 other charges pertaining to the robbery. Simpson’s co-defendant, Clarence “C.J.” Stewart was also found guilty on all charges and taken into custody.

VIDEO – VERDICT

A weary and somber Simpson released a heavy sigh as the charges were read by the clerk in Clark County District Court. He was immediately taken into custody.

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.

Just call it Karma, call it poetic justice … call it just plain justice served, 13 years later. Ironically, the guilty sentence handed down Friday to OJ came 13 years to the day when he was shamefully cleared of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown  Simpson and Ron Goldman.  OJ Simpson, 61, could spend the rest of his life in prison and will be sentenced one December 5, 2008. The fact of the matter is, eventually in time, it may not be out time … but justice is served to those who most deserve it.

What a difference 13 years make when justice is finally served.

 
UNLUCKY 13

According to Simpson’s defense attorneys, The Juice is extremely upset over being found guilty on all charges of kidnapping, armed robbery and assault with a deadly weapon.

“He’s extremely upset, extremely emotional, but it is something that was expected,” he said.

“Definitely someone like OJ Simpson, everyone has a fixed opinion of him and it’s troubling.

“I wasn’t surprised.”

O.J. Simpson guilty of armed robbery, kidnapping

The jury of nine men and three women, none of them African-American, reached its verdict after 13 hours of deliberations Friday. Jurors heard from 22 witnesses over 12 days of testimony. Chief among the witnesses were seven of the nine people inside Room 1203 of the Palace Station Hotel and Casino for the September 13, 2007, confrontation.

UPDATE I: Timeline of OJ Conviction

UPDATE II: What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

I guess it is true, what happens in Vegas … stays in Vegas including potentially OJ Simpson’s convicted self for the next 30 years in prison.

Kidnapping is punishable by five years to life in prison. Armed robbery carries a mandatory sentence of at least two years behind bars, and could bring as much as 30. Sentencing was set for Dec. 5.

Canadian Province Wins Student Loan Legal Case against Aruba’s All Saints University of Medicine

As reported in The St. John’s Telegram, Canadian Province has won their legal case against the All Saints University of Medicine in Aruba in regards to granting student loans to the university. The University learned the hard way that when one misrepresents themselves for gain, one usually must produce what you claimed you had in the first place, or forfeit the initial contract that was only gained by false claims.

Medical students from this province won’t be getting student loans to attend university in Aruba – not that any have applied.

The All Saints University of Medicine in Aruba took this province’s Education Department to court over the department’s decision to suspend student loan status that it had previously granted to the university.

The province was justified in choosing to revoke that initial decision, says Supreme Court Justice Robert Hall, who presided over the arguments.

Furthermore, the medical school in Aruba – which has never had an applicant from this province – will have to pay the province’s legal fees in relation to the case.

Court Decision: Wisconsin Law Bans Sex With the Dead, Necophilia is a Crime Afterall

BIZARRE … Necophilia now finally banned in Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin State Supreme Court over turned a lower courts earlier decision that there was nothing in state law that banned necrophilia. The WI Supreme Court ruled 5–2 that in fact there were laws. The ruling caused a reinstatement of sexual assault charges against three suspects.

The ruling reinstates attempted sexual assault charges against twin brothers Nicholas and Alexander Grunke and Dustin Radke, all 22. They face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

The basis of the ruling is on the fact that the state bans sexual intercourse when there is no consent. There is no wording in the law that states whether the victim is dead or alive and by using an ounce of common sense a dead person cannot give consent. Of course the disturbing thought is that 2 judges tried to find a way that sex with a corpse was not a crime. Nice! One would think that no consent means just that … NO CONSENT! It is disturbing to know that there are judges out there who do not think that the dead have rights, only their assailants do.

Not anymore, the court ruled in a 5-2 decision.

Justice Patience Roggensack, writing a majority opinion with three other justices, said state law bans sexual intercourse with anyone who does not give consent whether a victim is dead or alive at the time. Dead bodies obviously can’t give consent, she said.

“A reasonably well-informed person would understand the statute to prohibit sexual intercourse with a dead person,” she wrote.

Aruban Justice: 2 1/2 Year Jail Sentence for G.W. Anthony who Shot a Man at Havana, Other Goes Free on Lack of Evidence

Aruban justice: different crime, similar results??? 

21 year old G.W. Anthony who shot a man at Havana, received 2½ years in jail while suspect G.J. Raven went free, due to lack of evidence. Interestingly enough, Anthony was convicted due to the fact that he had provided the police several different stories during declarations. Sound familiar? So much for a uniform system of justice applied by the judges in Aruba. If multiple stories in decalarations are the standard for guilt and innocence in Aruba … Joran Van der Sloot, Deepak and Satish Kalpoe would be presently serving time for the disappearance of missing Natalee Holloway. Why was this case different?

The only evidence came from the mouth of Anthony self, but the judge dismissed that, especially because Anthony has given the police several variant declarations.

The prosecutor assumed that Raven had given Anthony the gun and the two tried to disguise the truth by giving contradictory declarations. Raven’s lawyer requested that his client is acquitted because of this. That he had lied in the beginning is because he was afraid. The judge considered it proven that Anthony had shot the victim R.A. Reid

2½ Years for the person that pulled the trigger in Havana
(June, 28 2008 Amigoe)

ORANJESTAD – The 21-year old G.W. Anthony that shot a man at Havana, received 2½ years jail. Suspect G.J. Raven went free, due to lack of evidence.

Mini Me Sues TMZ … Judge Orders TMZ to Remove Sex Tape of ‘Austin Powers’ film Mini Me, Verne Troyer

MINI ME … MINI LAW SUIT. Well maybe its a “major” law suit. As Mini_meone internet website stated, “Well, at least we know that one thing is big about Verne Troyer: his lawsuits”.

Verne Troyer has filed a $20 million lawsuit, claiming TMZ.com violated his rights by publishing and airing portions of his sex tape. Just when one thought that the airing of individuals pics and videos couldn’t get any more weird. One thing is for certain, just because the original clips were taken down does not mean that there are not still pics all over the internet. Or bits and pieces on You Tube. As they say, pardon the pun … the genie is out of the bottle. Which raises the real question,  is there a celebrity in Hollywood who does not have a sex tape?

In the suit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in downtown L.A., Troyer claims TMZ violated his privacy rights and infringed on his copyright and trademark by running portions of the tape on TMZ TV and TMZ.com. He also alleges TMZ violated his right of publicity and misappropriated his name and likeness.

A federal judges has ordered TMZ.com to remove video clips of a private sex tape of Verne Troyer. Who is Verne Troyer you ask? He is the actor who played “Mini Me” in the Austin Powers movies. Troyer states that the sex tape was stolen from his home.

U.S. District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez issued a temporary restraining order against TMZ and two other parties allegedly attempting to sell the video after ruling that Troyer “demonstrated a strong likelihood of success” in his suit.

According to court papers, the video of Troyer and former girlfriend Renae Schrider was stolen from the actor’s residence in the last few months and “was never intended . . . to be shown to the public.”

The judge’s order prohibits TMZ, promoter Kevin Blatt and SugarDVD, an online distributor of adult films, from selling or distributing the video.

Judge Enrobes Troyer Sex Tape, There’s one less unnecessary thing on the Internet these days

Judge halts release of Verne Troyer sex tape

VIDEO interview of Mini Me stolen tape fiasco. Interestingly enough the MSNBC story from Keith Olbermann actually has footage of the so-called banned video clips.

A 25-second snippet of video showing Verne Troyer and a former girlfriend having sex that was available online over the past couple of days is all the world will see of the tape — for now.

A federal judge on Friday granted a temporary restraining order requested by Troyer’s attorneys that prevents porn distributors from taking orders for the full-length video, and prevents TMZ from broadcasting any more clips.

UPDATE I: TMZ allowed to repost portion of actor’s sex tape

The Mini Me sex tape is now a go for TMZ.com. It appears that the website had gotten permission from the other half of the sex duo starring in the tape. However, the best story in all of this foolishness has to come from Mediabistro.com. This is perfect, “The moral of the story is: You know your throw away joke has horribly backfired when you are sent a temporary restraining order.”

The woman in a sex tape featuring Verne Troyer – best known for his role in the “Austin Powers” movies – says she allowed celebrity Web site TMZ to broadcast snippets of the tape.

Troyer’s ex-girlfriend, Ranae Shrider, signed a declaration filed in federal court in Los Angeles stating the tape was created with her video camera. Her statement prompted a judge to allow TMZ to reinstate a post featuring snippets of the tape.
