O.J. Simpson Fate in Jury Hands
Closing arguments have concluded at the O.J. Simpson trial in Las Vegas for armed robbery and kidnapping. Presiding Judge Jackie Glass sent the jury home with instructions to return on Friday morning to begin deliberations leading to a decision of guilt or innocence. Some of the Vegas local smart money is betting on a split decision resulting in a hung jury.
While the defense maintained in the closing statements that no crime was committed in the hotel room at Palace Station the prosecution tried to convince the jury that a crime of such evil magnitude occurred that the defendant should receive a life sentence.
The jury will now determine what happens to the Juice. Will he continue to be a free man or will he spend the rest of his life in a Nevada prison cell? Stay tuned for the conclusion of this often boring trial that mostly put on public display the greed factor of the sleazy among us.
