O.J. Simpson learns the hard way that, when you deal with unethical criminal persons, you run the risk that they'll eventually turn around and testify against you on the off chance that your tape-recorded, not very well executed armed robbery stint goes sour. Says (now former) friend-slash-accomplice Walter Alexander:

Out by the pool at the posh Palms resort a few hours before the alleged heist, “he asked me if I could watch his back,” after which “he leaned forward and it was kind of like, ‘Hey, do you think you can get some heat?’ ” Alexander testified. “‘Just in case things go wrong—just in case, you know, they may have heat, you know, can you bring some heat?’"

For those of you not in the know, "bring some heat" is tantamount to saying "bring a loaded firearm." Which, unfortunately for the Juice, pokes a gaping hole in O.J.'s "Gun? What gun?" and "I've been framed! Again!" defenses.
