Honestly, how dumb is this guy? Are there really people on the planet more idiotic and unable to avoid trouble than him? If so, please tell me, because I don’t think it’s possible. In case you missed it over the weekend, OJ Simpson was arrested for breaking into the Palace Station Casino in Las Vegas to try and steal some sports memorabilia he claimed belonged to him. Dumbass. Now, (after escaping murder charges), the man could finally be heading to jail for an extended period of time:
Simpson was at the Clark County Detention Center on Sunday night for booking on two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit a crime and burglary with a firearm, police said. The district attorney, meanwhile, said he expected Simpson to ultimately be charged with seven felonies and one gross misdemeanor.
If convicted of the booking charges, Simpson would face up to 30 years in state prison on each robbery count alone.
My favorite part comes towards the end of the AP story, when they say OJ has been a tabloid staple for the last several years. Yeah, good call. So The Juice has been living above the law all this time, has it finally caught up to him? I guess that remains to be seen. I don’t think he deserves anything less than a hearty jail sentence. Amen to that.

UPDATE: Per SpinMax in the comments, TMZ has must hear audio from The Juice.

Did Al Cowlings drive to the jail house in a white bronco that was being “chased” by the police???
There’s often a fine line between stupidity and arrogance.
This time I don’t believe a panel of high powered criminal defense attorneys will touch his case, and Clark County will provide a prosecutor who is more concerned with presenting a fail proof case than how her hair is primped for Court TV.

Juicy J is this close to being the nation’s most recognized ‘Juice.’
I do agree with you about OJ being dumb. There were much better ways for him to have resolved the matter of the stolen items. If he were smart he would have gone to the police with this and let them handle the matter. But instead, he decided to take law into his own hands.
OJ overlooked the fact that he got off 12 years ago due mostly to luck and not much else. This time Johnny Cochran won’t save him and the black community won’t be sympathizing with him. He has no one to blame but himself for this.
I was googling and found your blog looking for Criminal Defense Attorney Detroit, I thought that this post, Just How Dumb is O.J. Simpson?, was right in line with my own thoughts on the matter.
