O.J. Simpson, the former professional football star acquitted of charges in the murder of his former wife, but later found liable in a separate civil trial has died.
He was 76 years old.
In 1994, Simpson's ex-wife and mother of two of his children, Nicole Brown Simpson, was found stabbed to death with her friend, Ron Goldman in Los Angeles. Simpson was accused of killing them both, but was acquitted in a highly-publicized trial. He was later found liable for both deaths in a civil lawsuit in 1997.
Simpson and Brown Simpson, who were married for seven years, had a rocky relationship, with Simpson allegedly abusing her. Her murder took place two years after their divorce.
His trouble with the law continued in 2007 when he was arrested in Las Vegas on armed robbery and kidnapping charges. He was convicted a year later and sentenced to 33 years behind bars. He was released in 2017.
Simpson rose to fame as a NFL star in the late 1960s. He played mostly for the Buffalo Bills and is considered to be one of the greatest running backs of all time.
He went on to have an acting career, starting in movies and TV shows.
The question is SASU? Do you believe O.J. Simpson committed the crime?
YES OR NO?
