The Associated Press reports,

“If I have any disappointment it’s that I wish a jury was here,” Simpson told The Associated Press before he left the courtroom. “As always, I rely on the jury system.”

Justice of the Peace Joe M. Bonaventure refused to dismiss any charges in a 12-count complaint against Simpson and co-defendants Clarence “C.J.” Stewart and Charles “Charlie” Ehrlich, which stem from a Sept. 13 confrontation in a casino hotel room. Prosecutors accuse Simpson of leading the suspected armed robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers.

The defendants are to enter their pleas on Nov. 28.

Maybe we will get it right this time and put this sucker behind bars. Can you imagine? He gets away with murder, but gets life in prison for stealing his own sports memorabilia.
