In the not-suprising news, two of O.J. Simpson's co-defendants have taken deals and will testify against him.
Of possible interest is that the co-defendants, Walter Alexander and Charles Cashmore, are pleading to felonies. While I'd expect them not to get jail time in exchange for their testimony, a felony conviction is no walk in the park. It also raises the bar for any plea deal for O.J. I think the prosecution would be hard-pressed to give O.J. a misdemeanor while forcing the others to cop to felonies.
Which means, we may see yet another O.J. trial. The preliminary hearing is set for Nov. 8 and 9th.
