Confronting O.J. SIMPSON

When NFL legend O.J. Simpson was charged over the gruesome slaying of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in the late evening of June 12, 1994, he became the most famous defendant to ever be tried for homicide.

Nicole had been stabbed seven times and nearly decapitated, while Ron showed signs of defensive wounds, indicating he had likely entered the scene as Nicole was being attacked. Despite a mountain of physical and DNA evidence, Simpson was acquitted on October 3, 1995, an equally defining moment in both the justice system and popular culture. It remains one of the most remembered criminal cases of the 20th century, and has spawned countless books from almost all involved, an Oscar-winning documentary and a multi-Emmy-Award-winning miniseries
