LAS VEGAS - In a city where luck means everything, O.J. Simpson came out the big loser and his unlucky number in a case full of bizarre twists was 13.
He was convicted of an armed robbery that happened on Sept. 13 and was found guilty on the 13th anniversary of his Los Angeles murder acquittal. The Las Vegas jury deliberated for 13 hours after a 13-day trial.
And then, as only the sobs of Simpson's sister broke the silence late Friday, the lights went out.
Court marshals flipped on flashlights and shouted for everyone to stay seated. Only the judge knew what had happened. It was 11 p.m. and the courthouse lights had shut down automatically.
"Timed out," Judge Jackie Glass said in a fitting epitaph for the story of O.J. Simpson, which has long haunted America.
Though investigators felt that OJ was surely guilty with Nicole's death, he seemingly got away with it but he couldn't stay clean apparently and now will spend the rest of his life in prison.
Sometimes crime's pay is a bit deliquent.
Sad ending to a superstar's life.
