OJ Simpson's Appeal For New Trial Denied.

O.J. Simpson faces at least four more years in prison after a judge rejected his bid for a new trial in his Las Vegas armed robbery and kidnapping conviction.

"All grounds in the petition lack merit and, consequently, are denied," Clark County District Judge Linda Marie Bell said in her ruling Tuesday.

Simpson's lawyer Patricia Palm said she spoke briefly with the former football star from prison, and said he was disappointed but would appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court. Simpson's new defense team argued that his original lawyers botched his case.

If they botched the case, he didn't get his money's worth from those high dollar lawyers. hobbit709 Nov 2013 #1

for him.

That means at least another four years until he can be out searching for the "real" killer of Ron and Nicole.
