OJ back in the news and I have to admit Vegas has not been kind to him - now 65 yrs old and supposed to take the stand.

This is the article from USA Today:

LAS VEGAS (AP) — O.J. Simpson was back in a Las Vegas courtroom on Monday to ask for a new trial in the armed robbery-kidnapping case that sent him to prison in 2008.

The former football hero and a new set of lawyers hope to convince a judge during the hearing that trial lawyer Yale Galanter had conflicted interests and shouldn't have handled Simpson's case.

Simpson appeared in court wearing a blue jail uniform. His hair was short and grayer than it was during a previous court appearance in 2008.

He entered the courtroom in handcuffs, flanked by guards and nodded and raised his eyebrows to acknowledge people he recognized in the second row.

A marshal had warned people in the audience not to try to communicate with Simpson. No words were exchanged.

Simpson is serving nine to 33 years in a Nevada prison. He's due to testify Wednesday.

I know it won't happen but I hope he gets the full 33 years.
