It is with satisfaction that I note the news that O.J. Simpson has been found guilty on all counts in the gunpoint robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers in Las Vegas.

The 61-year-old former football faces up to life in prison.

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

The verdict comes 13 years to the day after Simpson was acquitted of killing his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, in Los Angeles.

Co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart also was found guilty on all charges and taken into custody.

The men were tried on 12 criminal charges.

The Butcher of Brentwood will finally serve prison time for something.

I could post the convicted criminal’s picture, but I won’t.  I’d rather post these:

Of course, there are other victims too, including the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. 

Nicole Brown Simpson’s children Sydney and Justin have lived under impossibly sad circumstances, being raised by the very man whom a civil jury, at least, found had killed their mother.  Maybe their father’s imprisonment will give them a belated chance to break free from his poisonous, criminal orbit.
