O.J. Simpson, who went from American sports idol to celebrity-in-exile after he was acquitted of murder in 1995, was found guilty Friday of robbing two sports-memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room.
The 61-year-old former football star could spend the rest of his life in prison. Sentencing was set for Dec. 5. A weary and sombre Simpson released a heavy sigh as the charges were read by the clerk in Clark County District Court. He was immediately taken into custody.
