Prosecutor: OJ Simpson Will ‘Probably Be Paroled’

OJ Simpson will soon be a free man. Well, a paroled man anyway.

That prediction comes from a man perhaps, most singularly responsible for putting him behind bars. David Roger, the prosecutor who won a robbery conviction against Simpson in 2008, says he believes the Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners will let the juice loose.

Roger told the New York Post, “The guy did a lot of time on a robbery charge, I expect he’ll probably be paroled.”

Rep. Patrick Murphy Ran as Moderate, Now Launches Partisan Attacks as Senate Candidate

U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL) won his first election in 2012 by branding himself as a moderate, presenting himself as an alternative to tea party firebrand Allen West, who had been elected in the Tea Party wave of 2010.

Alan Grayson (D-FL), on the left and spark interest from Democrats nationally who could fund his race.

Teen’s Playboy Birthday Bash Ends in Dad’s Arrest

Teens brandishing lingerie and silk robes boozed it up for a Playboy Mansion-themed birthday bash under what appears to be the not-so-watchful eye of 18-year-old birthday girl Olivia Lake’s father Jeff Lake and other adults in Poway, California Friday night.
