Funny timing that he got convicted on these charges exactly 13 years to the day after he walked on murder charges. I suppose that means his current liar, er, lawyer wasn't as good as Johnnie Cochran at misdirection. Oh, that's right: Cochran was 'just doing his job'.
It's disgusting that he could walk on double murder charges yet possibly do life in prison for stealing sports memorabilia at gunpoint. What does that say about our system of 'justice'? Oh, yeah, that's right: he's out of money so the really GOOD (ha!) lawyers didn't want the case.
I guarantee that his cellmate will be looking to make a name as the first con to get some OJ booty.
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

I hate to say this, but a part of me thinks he got the time for killing his ex-wife, and I kinda have a problem with it. In this case everything I'd seen was somewhat sketchy and I just hope that this jury convicted him based on this trial and not a trial that occured 13 years earlier.

he goes to a hotel room with friends that have a gun,
the gun was the major point
if he wanted his "stuff" back he needed to go to court and sue the guy.
Vegas is not the place to screw up , it not like Los Angeles ,

perhaps a chat with the Goldman and Brown families might make you feel better about "having a problem".

He wrote a book called "if I did it" didn't he? Did anyone read it? I wonder if it's a confession.

Not really, he still wasn't punished for what he did to their families, so I don't see how this would bring them any kind of solace.

Gonna go with Wally on this. I believe in the sanctity of our legal system. I want it to protect the rights and liberty of the innocent, even if that means a guilty person is occasionally let free.
Part of our legal system is that you can not be tried twice for the same crime.
Even if he was guilty of his previous crimes, he is presumed innocent until proven otherwise, under our justice system.
Of course, Al Capone went to prison for tax evasion, and they threw the book at him for that.
Now, I do think both men were/are scumbags who got what they deserved. But I would rather preserve the integrity and protection of our justice system if it means sacrificing retribution.

Not in the US justice system. The burden of proof of innocence is typically placed on you.

Guess he's really Man of Many Words.
I disagree with foxtrapper; if the burden of proof of innocence were really on the defendant, OJ would have sat in the slammer all during his first trial. Instead, he was out walking the streets.
That doesn't mean I like the system of 'justice' we have. It rewards those with lots of money and low morals and encourages people to not accept responsibility for their actions but rather to hire the slimiest mouthpiece they can find to get them off the hook.
And no I don't have any ideas of anything better to replace it with.
