Jury deliberating Simpson robbery case

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A jury began deliberating Friday whether O.J. Simpson and his co-defendant robbed two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a casino hotel room.

The 61-year-old former football star and a golfing buddy, Clarence “C.J.” Stewart each face five years to life in prison if convicted of kidnapping, or mandatory prison time if convicted of armed robbery. They’ve pleaded not guilty to 12 charges, including conspiracy, coercion and assault with a deadly weapon.
