O.J. Simpson Sent To Jail

It's like Christmas all over again!
LAS VEGAS, Nevada (CNN) -- O.J. Simpson was taken into custody in Miami, Florida, on allegations that he violated terms of his bail by trying to talk a co-defendant out of cooperating in a Las Vegas armed robbery case, court documents say.

Simpson, 60, was reportedly on board a flight to Las Vegas, Nevada, on Friday. He is to go before a Las Vegas judge on Wednesday at the request of Clark County District Attorney David Roger. The prosecutor filed a motion Friday asking to revoke Simpson's $125,000 bail.

Court documents obtained by CNN say Simpson allegedly tried to reach co-defendant Clarence Stewart though his bail bondsman. That was a violation of the terms of his release, according to a transcript of his bail hearing attached to the legal papers.

Authorities say they have a copy of a voicemail Simpson left for Stewart, the court documents say. Simpson is quoted as saying:

"I just want, want C.J. to know that the whole thing all the time he was tellin' me that (bleep), ya know. I hope he was telling me the truth. Don't be trying to change the mother (bleeping) (bleep) now, mother (bleeping) (bleep) holes. I'm tired of this (bleep). Fed up with the mother (bleepers) changing what they told me." (H/T - CNN)
How funny is it that Simpson is imprisoned for violating the terms of his bail? He is going to become the 21st Century's Al Capone: gets away with murder - and don't bother professing his innocence; he did it - but goes away for something stupid like getting his bail revoked.

Johnnie Cochran is rolling over in his grave.
