O.J. Simpson
Clarence "C.J" Stewart is seated in the middle during his trial.O.J. Simpson's co-defendant is asking a Las Vegas judge for leniency and the minimum 6-year prison sentence in the gunpoint robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers.
Clarence "C.J" Stewart's sentencing brief submitted Tuesday to Clark County District Court Judge Jackie Glass sheds light on -- but doesn't specify -- the maximum sentence sought against Simpson and Stewart.
LasVegasNOW.com will carry live streaming coverage of the sentencing. It can also be watched on Las Vegas ONE, Channel 19.
The brief refers to a confidential state Parole and Probation recommendation that the two men serve consecutive sentences totaling 18 years for two counts of kidnapping with a deadly weapon and two counts of armed robbery with use of a weapon.
The kidnapping charges each carry 6-year sentences. Armed robbery charges each carry 3-year sentences. Simpson's lawyers say they intend to submit a brief to the court before Friday's sentencing.
