OJ Simpson: How a Guilty Man Walked Free
<p>On June 12, 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were stabbed to death outside her condo on Bundy Drive in Brentwood. Nicole was nearly decapitated. Ron had defensive wounds on his hands. He was 25 and had just stopped by to return a pair of glasses.</p><p>OJ Simpson was arrested five days later, but only after a slow-speed chase down the 405 in a white Ford Bronco that 95 million people watched live. He had a passport, a disguise, and $8,000 in cash in the car.</p><p>The trial lasted nearly nine months. The prosecution had blood, DNA, a history of domestic violence, and a 911 call where Nicole said he was going to kill her. The defense had a glove that didn't fit, a detective who'd used racial slurs, and a jury that deliberated for four hours.</p><p>Not guilty.</p><p>Two years later a civil jury disagreed. They found him liable for both deaths and ordered him to pay $33.5 million. He never paid most of it.</p><p>In 2008 he was convicted of armed robbery and kidnapping in Las Vegas and sentenced to up to 33 years. He served nine. He died of cancer in April 2024, still insisting he was innocent.</p><p>This is the case that taught America to watch a trial like a TV show. We get into all of it.</p><p><strong>In This Episode:</strong></p><ul><li>The timeline of June 12 and what the evidence actually showed</li><li>Nicole's documented history with OJ and the calls that went unanswered</li><li>The Bronco chase and why he didn't run</li><li>The Dream Team, Mark Fuhrman, and how the defense flipped the script</li><li>The glove, the DNA, and what the jury didn't buy</li><li>The verdict, the reaction, and the racial divide it exposed</li><li>The civil case and the $33.5 million he never paid</li><li>Las Vegas, prison, parole, and how it ended</li></ul>
