Last Friday we learned that O.J. Simpson had been questioned over a break-in at a Las Vegas casino, and today the ex-NFL star had his arraignment hearing today, and was granted bail of $125,000. When we looked at this Friday the details were still fuzzy, but the events of the break-in now point to much more than just a break-in snatch and grab.

In court today O.J. had the following charges handed down to him:

Kidnapping
Robbery with use of a deadly weapon
Burglary while in possession of a deadly weapon
Coercion with use of a deadly weapon
Assault with a deadly weapon
Conspiracy to commit kidnapping
Conspiracy to commit robbery
Conspiracy to commit a crime

If you ask me, "The Juice" got off pretty easy with only $125,000 in bail considering the amount and severity of the charges. The crime occurred last Thursday and O.J. has been in custody since Sunday. Reports indicate that O.J. was subdued during the hearing, and did not enter a plea on the charges.

In case you missed it, ex-footballer and tabloid icon O.J. Simpson is making the news again today. Las Vegas police have confirmed they questioned him regarding a casino hotel break-in that occurred last night.

O.J. Simpson was one of the most liked American celebrities once. He was a former Heisman Trophy winner, an ex-NFL star, and an actor (who can forget his Naked Gun performances?), but he fell from grace in dramatic style following the 1994 murder investigation of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. While he was eventually found not guilty of the charges in his criminal (and highly televised) case, he will probably never shake off the stigma of the event, and he was later found liable in a wrongful death civic suit.

The current investigation involves a break in that took place at the Palace Station Casino last night. While there are no official details on what, if anything, was taken out of the hotel room, some reports indicate there were sports memorabilia in the room and that one auctioneer had reported that O.J. was simply taking back articles that had been stolen from him.
