Former American football star OJ Simpson has been jailed for 15 years for kidnapping and armed robbery.

He recruited five other men to help him rob two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room on September 13 last year, a jury at Clark County District Court found.

He was convicted of all 12 charges he faced in October after more than 13 continuous hours of jury deliberations - 13 years to the day after he was cleared of double murder in America's "trial of the century".
