O.J. RELEASED FROM ISOLATION TO ATTEND WORSHIP SERVICE

October 10, 2008 - 10:09 am

O.J. Simpson was allowed to leave isolation to attend a worship service during his first week in jail, Vegas Confidential has learned.

The NFL Hall of Famer was found guilty last Friday and immediately jailed in the Clark County Detention Center. He was convicted on all 12 counts involving the armed robbery and kidnapping of two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room 13 months ago.

Also attending the worship service earlier this week was Simpson's co-defendant Clarence "CJ" Stewart, it was learned.

Simpson, 61, faces a life sentence. He awaits a Dec. 5 sentencing.
