OJ Simpson Trial: The Jury’s Almost Picked

by Stuart Heritage

OK, hands up who thought that it’d take 400 years to pick the jury for the new OJ Simpson trial because the whole world obviously hates OJ Simpson.

Anyone? Just us? OK, well then we’re the wrong ones. In actual fact, the jury for OJ Simpson’s armed robbery and kidnap trial has almost been completely picked. What does that mean? Well, most importantly it means that the scene is set for us to plunge headlong into the nitty-gritty of the OJ Simpson trial itself next week.

Secondly it ostensibly means that there are a handful of people in Las Vegas who say they don’t care about OJ Simpson murder acquittal in 1995. But what it actually means is that there’s a handful of people who’ve either hidden their furious bitter hatred of OJ Simpson well enough to pass the jury selection process or are currently busy phoning publishers and scribbling down the first draft of their new book How I Banged OJ Simpson Up. Fun!

OJ Simpson Robbery Kidnappy Trial Thing: Jurors Getting Picked

by Stuart Heritage

You know how the nights have started to draw in earlier lately? That’s not autumn, that’s nature setting the scene for OJ Simpson’s newest trial.

You know, the trial about how OJ Simpson allegedly stormed into a sports memorabilia collector’s hotel room with a bunch of gun-brandishing heavies and demanded that they give him everything with his face on it, or thereabout. Well guess what – OJ Simpson’s trial started yesterday, or at least the jury selection process part of it.

It’s an extremely tricky part of the trial procedure, too. Not just because OJ Simpson faces the rest of his life spent in jail if he’s found guilty of his charges, but because the judge doesn’t want to pick jurors who’ll punish OJ for his murder trial acquittal. Jurors who’ll punish OJ Simpson for his creepy book about the murder or his role in the underwhelming Naked Gun 33/3, sure. Just not the murder thing.

OJ Simpson Takes A Stab At Next Celebrity Apprentice

by Shawn Lindseth

The only reality show we want to see Donald Trump star in is one where he and Rosie O’Donnell are trapped for a week in a commercial elevator together, with nothing but multiple wet, sticky lollipops covering their privies.

Also there’d be live sugar-craving geese in there with them – pecking away at unspecified things.

That show would be great indeed – and we’d watch it too. It’s a tragedy then, that it will never get made. Because in the next Celebrity Apprentice, D. Trump will come face to face with a murderer! We meant with an accused murderer! And might be killed himself! But probably not!

Keep in mind that nothing’s been finalised, but rumor has it that OJ Simpson wants him a slice of Apprentice.

Somebody re-word that last bit.

OJ Simpson Out Of Jail, But Officially Arrogant & Ignorant

by Stuart Heritage

It takes a brave man to yell at OJ Simpson with his reputation – well, a brave man or a rubbery-faced woman on a wooden bench, one or the other.

OJ Simpson was in jail between Friday and yesterday because he broke court orders and left a voicemail for Clarence Stewart, one of his alleged accomplices in the armed robbery he’s accused of staging.

And yesterday, before freeing him, Judge Jackie Glass decided to explain why this was wrong to OJ Simpson, by basically bellowing the words “Arrogant!” and “Ignorant!” at him until everyone in the courtroom ended up deaf and crying.

OJ Simpson So Not Guilty It Hurts: OJ Simpson

by Stuart Heritage

There are many things OJ Simpson is guilty of – being a bit of a douchebag, maybe, and having an unnatural obsession with his own faecal matter – but when it comes to armed robbery, OJ Simpson is absolutely not guilty.

That’s according to OJ Simpson, at least – faced with a stack of felony charges that will see him spend the rest of his life in jail, OJ Simpson decided yesterday at a Las Vegas arraignment that he didn’t actually have anything to do with any of it. OJ Simpson has pleaded not guilty to all 12 felony charges against him, on the basis that he only burst in on some unsuspecting sports memorabilia dealers with a gang of men in some sort of amateurish raid operation because they stole his shit and he only wanted his shit back. This argument means that the OJ Simpson trial – set for April – could set all manner of legal precedents for any other future angry shit-based misunderstandings that American citizens may wander into.

OJ Simpson Gets A Proper Jail-Facing Trial

by Stuart Heritage

The world has changed since OJ Simpson last stood trial for anything – back then the internet didn’t exist, all food tasted like wood shavings and a knife was the most technologically-advanced weapon you could stab people to death with.

But this time, wow. The judge presiding over OJ Simpson’s preliminary hearing has ruled that there is more than enough evidence to put OJ Simpson through a full criminal trial for his part in September’s supposed armed robbery in Las Vegas. That means that OJ Simpson will have to adjust to being the centrepiece of a blazingly high-profile trial in the 21st century, with all its trappings. OJ Simpson’s trial is set to begin in 2008, when you’ll be able to stab someone to death with a remote-controlled nanobot and buy food that tastes like anything up to three different types of wood shavings. Sadly, though, the internet still doesn’t exist, which means you’re imagining all this and should probably get your brain checked out.

OJ Simpson Wanted Plenty Of Gun-Waggling: Claim

by Stuart Heritage

So it’s official – OJ Simpson did ask his goons to bring guns to his alleged hotel room armed robbery in Las Vegas. And we know it’s official because a man who might occasionally moonlight as a pimp said so.

Yesterday at the preliminary hearing to discover whether there’s enough evidence to put OJ Simpson through a full criminal trial for his supposed role as the ringleader of an armed robbery, OJ’s goon Walter Alexander testified that Simpson had asked him to “bring some heat” to the raid in case anything went wrong. However, come the full trial OJ Simpson is expected to counter-argue that he wasn’t asking Alexander to bring a gun, rather to try and get his hands on an electric blanket or a patio heater or one of those gel-sack hand-warmer things with the metal clickers in them.

Because if there’s one thing OJ Simpson hates, it’s being slightly chilly. And people who steal his shit. But mainly chilliness, though.

OJ Simpson Either Knew About Guns Or Didn’t

by Stuart Heritage

The only things standing between OJ Simpson spending the rest of his life in jail for armed robbery and OJ Simpson being set free to skip around in a meadow like a wide-eyed schoolgirl are guns.

And whether or not OJ Simpson knew there were guns during the heist has been the main point in the court case to determine whether or not OJ Simpson should face a full trial for his alleged crime. OJ Simpson, you see, is adamant that he saw none of his goonsquad carrying guns during the hotel-room sports memorabilia raid – but testimonies by the goon who owned the guns, the goon who OJ Simpson asked to carry a gun and the memorabilia dealer who apparently had a gun held to his face seem to go against that. It all sounds a bit far-fetched to us – anyone who’s read If I Did It knows that OJ Simpson’s weapon of choice is a knife. That’s a knife.

OJ Simpson’s Shit-Stealing Court Case Begins

by Stuart Heritage

To the uninitiated, OJ Simpson’s current legal woe might seem inordinately complex – he stole some shit from some men, but only because he said the men had stolen shit from him, meaning that OJ Simpson was merely recovering shit.

Oh, it’s so confusing that we think we need a lie down. Luckily it’s not for us to make sense of OJ Simpson’s alleged shit-stealing escapades, because that’s for courts and lawyers and judges and whatnot to decide. Which is more or less what’s happening now – a hearing began yesterday to decide whether there’s enough evidence to take OJ Simpson to trial on all 12 of his charges. And if a trial does go ahead it’s expected to be the biggest shit-based trial starring an unconvincingly innocent murder-suspect the world has ever seen.

Probably. It’s not like we’ve researched it or anything.

Another Goon To Testify Against OJ Simpson

by Stuart Heritage

Let OJ Simpson’s predicament be a warning to all would-be armed robbers – it’s important to increase morale in your posse-members, either by offering them better pay, more holiday time or holding regular ice cream parties for them.

OJ Simpson neglected to do any of these things when he was recruiting his rowdy gang of crooks for his alleged armed robbery of a hotel room last month, so it’s no surprise that they’re all quickly turning on him. It’s been revealed that a third member of OJ Simpson’s goon-squad has accepted a plea deal with prosecutors that will see him get a lighter punishment in return for a testimony against OJ Simpson in court – a situation that could have been easily avoided if OJ Simpson had just shown some appreciation for his supposed accomplices by remembering the date of their wedding anniversary or holding some kind of team-bonding Hot-Cha-Cha Chili Cook-Off competition for his knuckle-dragging traitorous renegade henchmen.
