O J Simpson back again

O J (the juice) is back in jail, in Las Vegas.

His bail bondsman, has revoked OJ's bail, and retrieved him from Miami area to be returned to Las Vegas jail.

I guess OJ feels he is above the law...and above paying his creditors. 5555

I had to chuckle reading the article...some hotels refused him, etc.

Tears for Bondsman

Try as I might I cannot feel sympathy for this bondsman. He apparently gave Simpson an unsecured loan for the bail amount. Let celebrity blind him. In any other case a bondsman requires collateral, cash up front, something. Their clients after all are criminals-- at least for the time being.

But it is funny how Simpson can afford these high-powered legal teams, a mansion, a luxury lifestyle, has his ($25k/mo ?) NFL pension, yet never pay his bills.

Class will show.

He said Miguel is here, he's revoking my bail. I don't know why. I haven't done anything wrong. They are just picking on me again.

Cash Only!

One more bondsman-related point: It is unlikely that any bondsman will now touch Simpson. Not only did he violate his conditions but he stiffed the bondsman... who foolishly gave Simpson credit.

So now he can plan on forking over the entire bail amount to a court clerk. Since he lives in Florida the judge is unlikely to accept property.

Note: Florida and Texas were settled by debtors. For this reason their laws are the most debtor-friendly in the nation. Arguably the reason Simpson chose to live in Florida.

I have talked to people who were in the Twin Towers facility when Simpson was there during OJ I. Despite the nuts-to-butts overcrowding he had an entire floor to himself. With a gym, luxury furnishings, catered meals-- all the result of creative petitions by his legal team. One can hardly envision Clark County extending the same courtesies.

Walks...

$37.5k on a $250k bail, a lien on his home, and he walks.

Love this star-struck court system, bondsmen, and, er, women of negotiable morals.
