Letter: How will Vegas justice treat O.J.?

The question on everyone's mind is: Will O.J. Simpson elude the long arm of the law this time?

Ten years ago Los Angeles was a racial tinder box, ready to explode at a guilty verdict. Hence the "not guilty" verdict, though unjust, probably saved lives and billions of dollars in property damage.

But what about now and in Vegas? Will the law finally catch up to O.J.? Will he finally get his just desserts ?

The judges in Las Vegas, so far, don't seem as star-struck as Los Angeles judges who, obviously, decree a different set of laws and consequences for celebrities.
