Sports: Two of O.J.’s Robbery Cohorts Get Probation
December 10th, 2008
Two of O.J.’s robbery cohorts get probation. Two men who were accused of carrying handguns into a hotel room while accompanying O.J. Simpson on a mission to take back sports memorabilia sentenced on Tuesday to probation, according to The L.A. Times. Meanwhile, the former NFL great was sentenced last week to at least nine years in prison. But Michael McClinton and Walter Alexander – who testified against the NFL Hall of Fame running back – avoided prison time. Bruce Fromong, the collectibles dealer whose items Simpson sought when he and the other two men barged into Fromong’s hotel room at the Palace Station on Sept. 13, 2007, cried out “You’ve got to be joking me!” as the judge handed down McClinton’s sentence, the Times reported. He was subsequently removed from the hearing. Once in the Fromong’s hotel room, McClinton pulled out a .45-caliber Ruger and barked orders at the dealers, as Simpson purportedly told him to do, the Times reported. Afterward, McClinton secretly taped Simpson asking whether he pulled out “the piece” in the hallway. Jurors convicted Simpson of kidnapping, armed robbery and other charges in the incident and said McClinton’s tape was among the prosecution’s strongest evidence. A fourth man, Clarence Stewart, who didn’t negotiate a plea deal, also was sentenced last week to at least 7 ½ years in prison.
SING!!! LIKE A DAM BIRD IF NEED HUH!!.I THINK THEY HAD NO CHOICE !!THE ..”REDNECKS”..WANTED ..”O.J”..AND WOULD HAVE SENT THEM UP THE RIVER ALSO.
Correct! All they wanted was too convict O.J. How does a person who physically holds the weapon and points the weapon (PDW) gets probation.
My sis recommended me an eliet dating network called ——– http://DateRichSingleS.com ———- where you can easily meet a successful man for an upscale lifestyle.
they can one case had nothing to do with the other but we all know what was really in the back of their minds!..not only that o.j. got what he deserves because he was stupid enough to get in trouyble again. didn’t he have sense enough to know that them folks was just waiting to hem him up?
That’s the reward you get when you ‘Sell Out’ a friend. Clarence Steward didn’t ‘Sell Out’ so he got the same sentence as O.J. What a shame!
LOL, stupid OJ should have took the deal instead of thinking he could beat a trial yet again. No matter, they were still out to get him so even if he had taken a deal, he may have come up with crap. Not that I feel sorry for OJ because he belongs in jail for being stupid, however, how does 2 people holding the guns only get probation? I’m dumbfounded.
OJ put the nail in his own coffin and doesn’t deserve anybody’s pity.
The American justice system has collapsed and no one will face up to it.
