O.J. Simpson has been sitting in the Clark County jail since Friday after having his bail revoked. The revocation came after Simpson reportedly violated the terms after trying to contact a co-defendant. His bail bondsman, Miguel Pereira, who was angry he hadn't been paid for handling Simpson's bail, had turned over an incriminating phone message to police.

"He left a message instructing me to do something violating a court order," Pereira told The Associated Press. "I don't want to get involved in such a dilemma or a criminal act."      

At his bail revocation hearing today, things didn't get much better for the former NFL star.

"I don't know, Mr. Simpson, what the heck you were thinking -- or maybe that's the problem -- you weren't," Judge Jackie Glass told Simpson. "I don't know if it's just arrogance. I don't know if it's ignorance. But you've been locked up at the Clark County Detention Center since Friday because of arrogance or ignorance -- or both."

Glass then doubled Simpson's bail to $250,000 and told him that he must remain in jail until 15% was paid in cash.
