Page Description
Explore ‘The O.J. Simpson Case’ for in-depth analysis, key events, and lasting impacts of one of the most infamous trials in history.
The O.J. Simpson case, also known as the “Trial of the Century,” was a highly publicized criminal trial in the United States in 1994-1995. It revolved around former NFL player and actor O.J. Simpson, who was charged with the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman. The case had numerous key points and aspects, some of which include:
Murders and crime scene: On June 12, 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were found brutally murdered outside Nicole’s home in Brentwood, Los Angeles. The crime scene was highly gruesome, with both victims suffering multiple stab wounds.
O.J. Simpson’s arrest and trial: O.J. Simpson, a prominent public figure, was quickly identified as a suspect in the murders. He famously led the police on a slow-speed chase in a white Ford Bronco before eventually surrendering.
The “Dream Team”: Simpson assembled a legal defense team that included prominent attorneys such as Johnnie Cochran, Robert Shapiro, and F. Lee Bailey, among others. This team was referred to as the “Dream Team” due to their high-profile and skilled representation.
Evidence: The prosecution’s case against Simpson was built on a significant amount of evidence, including blood found at the crime scene, blood in Simpson’s car, a glove found at the crime scene matching one found at Simpson’s property, and various other circumstantial evidence.
DNA evidence: DNA analysis played a crucial role in the trial. The defense team, led by Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld, raised questions about the handling and testing of evidence, which led to doubts about the integrity of the DNA evidence presented by the prosecution.
The infamous glove: A key moment in the trial occurred when Simpson was asked to try on a blood-soaked glove found at the crime scene. The glove appeared too small, leading to Johnnie Cochran’s famous line, “If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit.”
Racial tensions and the LAPD: The case highlighted issues of race and police conduct in Los Angeles. The defense argued that the LAPD had a history of racial bias and planted evidence to frame Simpson.
Lengthy trial: The trial lasted for 11 months, making it one of the longest and most publicized trials in U.S. history.
Verdict: On October 3, 1995, the jury found O.J. Simpson not guilty of the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The verdict was met with a wide range of reactions, and it remains a subject of controversy and debate.
Civil trial: Despite the criminal acquittal, Simpson was later found liable for the deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman in a civil trial in 1997. He was ordered to pay substantial damages to the victims’ families.
The O.J. Simpson case remains a significant and controversial moment in American legal history, touching on issues of race, celebrity, and the criminal justice system.

The untold story of OJ Simpson. The OJ Simpson criminal trial was held at the Los Angeles County Superior Court, in which former National Football League star and actor O. J. Simpson was tried on two counts of murder for the June 12, 1994, deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and waiter Ronald Lyle Goldman. The trial spanned from the jury’s swearing-in on November 9, 1994, to opening statements on January 24, 1995, to a verdict on October 3, 1995, when Simpson was acquitted. The case has been described as the most publicized criminal trial in American history.

12 BBC – OJ Simpson the Untold Story
26 mei 2012
This program is an in depth investigation into new evidence that has been found surrounding the murder trial of O.J. Simpson.
Who did kill OJ’s ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman? This is still a gripping tale. It may be five years on but this story hasn’t lost its heady mixture of violence, race, sex and Hollywood glitz.
Five years ago, the world watched spellbound as OJ Simpson was acquitted of murder. And interest in the case remains as great as ever. Why, asks the BBC’s former Washington correspondent Bridget Kendall, are we still obsessed?
Ask any American exactly where they were when the verdict in OJ Simpson’s trial was announced and they will probably remember. It was one of those defining moments.
When the dramatic announcement came that OJ had been found “not guilty”, the reaction was almost as stunning as the unexpected verdict. America was divided down the middle.
Five years since that moment, and still the ghosts in this weird and ghastly double murder have not been laid to rest. And it is somehow fitting that the latest investigation to unearth new clues into what might have happened – who did kill OJ’s ex- wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman? – is not the result of police work, but a television documentary, OJ: The Untold Story. Once again, it is trial by television, a TV audience being invited to sift through the evidence and draw their own conclusions.
What is more, there are some startling new revelations and a real-life American private eye to help guide us through the maze of new circumstantial evidence. Not exactly a suave Raymond Chandler hero with deadpan delivery, Bill Dear is no Humphrey Bogart. But as a tenacious private detective from Dallas, Texas, he certainly proves that all those American crime novels got one thing right: one private eye with a bee in his bonnet and apparently boundless energy can get a whole lot further in coming up with new leads than an American city police department.
To begin with gruesome photos from the crime scene and eyewitness accounts from the LA police detectives reminds you of how they built their case, and convinces you all over again that surely the evidence against OJ was overwhelming.
But then comes the analysis: the evidence that does not add up.
Here the makers of this documentary have been careful not to be too categorical. They offer two sets of circumstantial evidence that point to two quite separate suspects and two quite different lines of inquiry. So who do they think did it? There is no final chapter to this new investigation. Watch it, and decide for yourself if you still think OJ is guilty.
13 LAPD Interrogation of O.J. Simpson [EXCLUSIVE. Never Before Broadcast]
11 jun 2016
On the morning of 13 June 1994 LAPD reached O.J. Simpson by phone at the O’Hare Plaza Hotel in Chicago to inform him that his ex-wife Nicole had been killed.
After hearing this news, Mr. Simpson arranged to take the next flight from Chicago to Los Angeles. Mr. Simpson arrived at his home in the Brentwood section of Los Angeles as LAPD officers were executing a search warrant. After speaking with detectives, Mr. Simpson agreed to travel with detectives to Parker Center to be formally interviewed. Mr. Simpson traveled to Parker Center in a car with the detectives while his lawyer followed in a separate vehicle.
Against the advice of his attorney, Mr. Simpson agreed to be interviewed by LAPD detectives without a lawyer present.
While there is no record of the discussions between Mr. Simpson and the detectives while at the Simpson estate or in the car while driving to Parker Center, the interview/interrogation was recorded.
The audio establishes that prior to the formal recorded interview, despite Mr. Simpson asking the detectives what happened/how Nicole was killed, police refused to tell him.
It is important to understand that at the time this interview occurred, none of the news reports had yet to state or speculate the manner which Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were killed (stabbing) and none had yet revealed the specific area of 875 South Bundy that the bodies were found.
The audio of Mr. Simpson’s interrogation by LAPD has never been widely available and the complete, unedited interrogation has never been broadcast; only specific soundbites have ever been played by the news media.
This is the exclusive presentation is the complete, unedited 13 June 1994 interrogation of O.J. Simpson by LAPD Detectives Phil Vannatter and Tom Lange.
After watching this exclusive presentation, viewers are encouraged to watch “LAPD Interrogation of O.J. Simpson : 3 Things That Make You Go HMMM” which is an epilogue to this film which highlights the three most significant takeaways from the interrogation and provides additional facts which demonstrate the importance of each. “LAPD Interrogation of O.J.

29 years ago, on June 12, 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were murdered in the walkway of Nicole’s Bundy condo. What followed was one of the biggest true crime stories of all time leading to the Trial of the Century, where Nicole’s ex-husband, football legend OJ Simpson was put on trial for the murders.
I spent the last 6 months researching the case and going to the real-life locations where it happened. On this 29th anniversary of the murders, follow my journey as I document the saga and dig a little deeper. I thought I knew a lot about this case, but I discovered there was much more to it.

The Definitive Account of the O.J. Simpson Trial, by Legendary Defense Attorney F. Lee Bailey
It was called “The Trial of the Century.” Beloved football sensation, O.J. Simpson was famous for his prowess on the field, his good looks, and his charm. But all that changed the night his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman were brutally slaughtered in her front yard late at night on June 12, 1994. The media circus that consumed the news cycle for the next eighteen months would forever change the world’s opinion of O.J. Simpson, despite the fact that the jury, after nearly a year of sequestration, came to their decision in just a few hours: Not Guilty.
Although at least a dozen books have been written about the O.J. Simpson trial, from every possible perspective from provocative to sensationalistic, The Truth About the O.J. Simpson Trial is the most revealing because the writer was the Architect of the Defense. Bailey, shows definitively why the jury was correct in finding that the timeline of the evening made Simpson’s presence at the murder scene impossible, which eclipses the question “Did he do it?” and establishes that he simply could not have done it. This book reveals shocking evidence of police corruption, mishandling of blood samples and other materials that formed the basis of the prosecution’s case. Bailey includes convincing evidence that was not presented at the trial—including interviews, forensic results, and revelations about the case that have since come to light.
Scathing, controversial, and, yes, entertaining, The Truth About the O.J. Simpson Trial will be read and studied by anyone interested in defending the innocent, the history of law enforcement in America, students of the Law, and all those who are still obsessed with “The Trial of the Century.”

1 nov 2019 #60MinutesAustralia
Americans turned O.J Simpson’s murder prosecution into a serialised, nationally-televised soap opera with every rumour, new witness or lead reported, argued and analysed. The evidence against OJ (that he killed his wife and her friend) might appear overwhelming. But 80% of Americans believe or want to believe he is innocent. In 1995, at his trial there was more at stake than just the guilt or innocence of OJ Simpson.

11 apr 2018
As a footballer, there was none better than OJ Simpson. As a human, there aren’t too many worse. It’s more than twenty years since Simpson was famously charged with murdering his former wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman. The court case, an eight month spectacle fuelled by the public’s obsession with celebrity, ended with the jury’s surprising ‘not guilty’ verdict. But two years later a civil court decided Simpson was liable for the deaths, and ordered him to pay more than thirty million dollars in compensation. In 2008 OJ Simpson was jailed for 33 years after a botched armed robbery in Las Vegas. The one-time American hero is likely to be paroled next year, which means more torment for the victims’ families. Reporter: Liz Hayes Producer: Phil Goyen
He’s become a household name: Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr., the brilliant orator and legal strategist who captained the Dream Team in the trial of the century. But behind the man the media created is a story of a life spent in the trenches of the American legal system, fighting not for clients as high-profile as O. J. Simpson, but for individuals whose voices are too often silenced. Journey to Justice is an unflinching portrait of Johnnie Cochran and the legal system that he has so profoundly influenced. It will forever change our understanding of what works and what doesn’t in America’s most noble and troubling institution.

21 Kato Kaelin’s O.J. trial testimony
The most famous lawyer in America talks about the law, his life, and how he has won.
Johnnie Cochran has been a lawyer for almost forty years. In that time, he has taken on dozens of groundbreaking cases and emerged as a pivotal figure in race relations in America. Cochran gained international recognition as one of America’s best – and most controversial lawyers – for leading ‘the Dream Team’ defense of accused killer O.J. Simpson in the Trial of the Century. Many people formed their perception of Cochran based on his work in that trial. But long before the Simpson trial and since then Johnnie Cochran has been a leader in the fight for justice for all Americans. This is his story.
Cochran emerged from the trial as one of the nation’s leading African-American spokespersons – and he has done most of his talking through the courtroom. Abner Louima. Amadou Diallo. The racially-profiled New Jersey Turnpike Four. Sean “P. Diddy” Combs. Patrick Dorismond. Cynthia Wiggins. These are the names that have dominated legal headlines – and Cochran was involved with each of them. No one who first encountered him during the Simpson trial can appreciate his impact on our world until they’ve read his whole story.
Drawing on Cochran’s most intriguing and difficult cases, A Lawyer’s Life shows how he’s fought his critics, won for his clients, and affected real change within the system. This is an intimate and compelling memoir of one lawyer’s attempt to make us all truly equal in the eyes of the law.

BET Journeys Into Black with Johnny Cochran
Johnnie Lee Cochran Jr.[1] (/ˈkɒkrən/; October 2, 1937 – March 29, 2005) was an American lawyer and civil activist best known for his leadership role in the defense and criminal acquittal of O. J. Simpson for the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman. He defended his client with rhymes like “if it doesn’t fit, you must acquit!”[2]
Cochran represented Sean Combs during his trial on gun and bribery charges, as well as Michael Jackson, Tupac Shakur, Stanley Tookie Williams,[3] Todd Bridges,[4] football player Jim Brown, Snoop Dogg, former heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe,[5] 1992 Los Angeles riot beating victim Reginald Oliver Denny,[2] and inmate and activist Geronimo Pratt. He represented athlete Marion Jones when she faced charges of doping during her high school track career.[6] Cochran was known for his skill in the courtroom and his prominence as an early advocate for victims of police brutality.[1]
Cochran was born in 1937 in Shreveport, Louisiana. His father, Johnnie Cochran Sr. (1916–2018), was an insurance salesman, and his mother sold Avon products.[7] The family relocated to the West Coast during the second wave of the Great Migration, settling in Los Angeles in 1949.[8] Cochran went to local schools and graduated first in his class from Los Angeles High School in 1955. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in business economics from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1959 and a Juris Doctor from the Loyola Law School in 1962. He was a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity and the fraternity’s 45th Laurel Wreath laureate.[9][10]
Legal practice
Inspired by Thurgood Marshall and the legal victory that Marshall won in Brown v. Board of Education, Cochran decided to dedicate his life to practicing law. Cochran felt his career was a calling, a double opportunity to work for what he considered to be right and to challenge what he considered wrong; he could make a difference by practicing law. In A Lawyer’s Life, Cochran wrote, “I read everything that I could find about Thurgood Marshall and confirmed that a single dedicated man could use the law to change society”.
Despite setbacks as a lawyer, Cochran vowed not to cease what he was doing, saying: “I made this commitment and I must fulfill it.”[11]
Early career
After passing the California bar exam in 1963, Cochran took a position in Los Angeles as a deputy city attorney in the criminal division.[12] In 1964, the young Cochran prosecuted one of his first celebrity cases, Lenny Bruce, a comedian who had recently been arrested on obscenity charges.[13] Two years later, Cochran entered private practice. Soon thereafter, he opened his own firm, Cochran, Atkins & Evans, in Los Angeles.[2]
In his first notable case, Cochran represented an African-American widow who sued several police officers who had shot and killed her husband, Leonard Deadwyler. Though Cochran lost the case, it became a turning point in his career. Rather than seeing the case as a defeat, Cochran realized the trial itself had awakened the black community. In reference to the loss, Cochran wrote in The American Lawyer, “those were extremely difficult cases to win in those days. But what Deadwyler confirmed for me was that this issue of police abuse really galvanized the minority community. It taught me that these cases could really get attention.”
By the late 1970s, Cochran had established his reputation in the black community. He was litigating a number of high-profile police brutality and criminal cases.[1]

36 USA: OJ SIMPSON TRIAL:
21 jul 2015
(12 Apr 1995) English/Nat
O-J Simpson’s defence team have filed a motion seeking an investigation into whether prosecutors are trying to engineer a mistrial by removing jurors from the case.
The 12th week of the trial also saw prosecutor Marcia Clark sporting a new look – a hairstyle created by Farrah Fawcett’s hairdresser.
The defence team went on the attack yesterday (Tuesday), revealing a television news tape that appears to show two bare-handed forensic scientists touching a key piece of evidence at the murder scene.
The O-J Simpson trial resumed on Tuesday with testimony from police forensic scientist Dennis Fung who was savaged by defence attorney Barry Scheck.
Marcia Clark seemed to have been busy during the five day recess – she has lost her trademark curls.
Even Judge Lance Ito seemed to notice, pausing slightly and smiling at her as he conducted the routine introduction of attorneys.
SOUNDBITE: “Back on record in the Simpson Matter.. Mr. Simpson is again present with his lawyers.. Mr. Cochran.. Mr. Shapiro.. Mr. Blazer.. Mr. Scheck.. people represented by Ms. Clark, Mr. Darden.”
SUPERCAPTION: Judge Lance Ito.
Defence attorney Barry Scheck attacked the way evidence was gathered at the scene of the crime.
He showed the court a video that appeared to show two bare-handed forensic scientists, Fung and his assistant Andrea Mazzola, touching an envelope at the crime scene.
SOUNDBITE:
Scheck: “If that’s not you grasping an envelope with prescription glasses with your bare-hands what pray tell is it?”
Fung: “We can always have the envelope printed and if my fingerprints are on it then it is, but I know my fingerprints are not on that envelope.”
Scheck: “That’s not you grasping with your bare hands?”
Fung: “That’s correct.”
SUPERCAPTION: Barry Scheck, Defense Attorney questioning Dennis Fung, Police Forensic Scientist
In another development on Tuesday, Simpson’s lawyers filed a motion seeking a probe into whether prosecutors are trying to cause a mistrial.
They believe this is being done through selective dismissal of jurors on misconduct claims.
Amid mistrial speculation, Judge Ito closed the morning session with a caution to the jury about an incident that took place over the weekend.
It involved the sequestered jury and a member of a college band, but Ito did not say what exactly happened, or where the incident occurred.
Scheck used his explosive style to forge a relentless attack on Fung over the way a sock was handled when it was found the day after the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.
SOUNDBITE:
Scheck: “When you looked at the ankle areas of those socks on June 13th you did not see a smear of blood did you?”
Fung: “I did not look that closely so I did not see any smear of blood.”
SUPERCAPTION: Barry Scheck, Defense Attorney questioning Dennis Fung, Police Forensic Scientist
Scheck continued his attack on the forensic scientist – this time it was the way Fung collected blood from inside Simpson’s Bronco.
Fung said he did not try to collect all the blood stains – just representative samples.
SOUNDBITE:
Scheck: “Is it your testimony that you took it upon yourself when watching stain thirty on June 14th to disregard your previous instructions to get as much of the sample as you could because you decided that this stain wouldn’t be a candidate for DNA testing.”
Fung: “I did not feel that stain was a good candidate for DNA testing.”

Drama documentary using forensic analysis of Nicole Brown Simpson’s autopsy by Dr Richard Shepherd, to reconstruct the last days of her life.
On the 12th June 1994 the body of 35 year old Nicole Brown Simpson, ex-wife of OJ Simpson, and the body of Ron Goldman, a friend, were found on the sidewalk of her west LA home – both had apparently been viciously stabbed to death Five days later in one of the most famous car chases, OJ Simpson went on the run from police – wanted for murder. Despite OJ being arrested and tried for the murders, after 10 months of what became known as the trial of the century, he was acquitted and even after extensive forensic police investigations no one has ever been found guilty of these horrendous crimes. Armed with the autopsy report, and the forensic evidence uncovered by the police, Dr Richard Shepherd will take the viewer back over the last few days of Nicole’s life and try and unravel what happened on that fateful night. From how the stab wounds reveal the movements of the killer to the possibilities of illegal drugs; flaws in the collection of evidence and a history of domestic violence. Shepherd uses this information to build up a profile of the killer. Alongside careful and detailed reconstructed drama scenes we talk to close friends, a psychologist and people who knew Nicole and OJ to painstakingly piece back together the nature of their complex relationship, to figure out who committed these crimes, and why.

PROOF: OJ Simpson was Innocent
Contrary to what you may have heard before, the only Rockingham scenario that fits all of the material evidence and independently corroborating testimony is O.J. Simpson’s. Let’s see how it looks with an accurate diagram. But remember, the car that was parked on the left of the driveway when Park turned left to take O.J. to the airport was never identified and could have come or gone at any time. Until Park made that left-hand turn, there was no reason for him or O.J. to have given it a second thought if it had been there all along. At this juncture we can’t prove that it was there before Park left with O.J. for LAX although Freed and Briggs report in Killing Time that neighbors, who would not reveal their identities, said that an unknown car was parked “near Rockingham.” Was that “near” the street or near the street address of O.J. Simpson? More about that later.
O.J. said that he normally parked his Bronco on Ashford, which is where he says it was before he drove it around his driveway to Rockingham. Kato Kaelin, who also parked his car on Ashford, could not recall ever seeing it parked elsewhere. All of which means, that’s where it probably was before O.J. moved it. That alone is an important part of O.J.’s alibi in that it establishes a reasonable explanation for where the Bronco, parked on Rockingham, came from—Ashford, not Bundy.

O.J. Simpson (born July 9, 1947, San Francisco, California, U.S.) American collegiate and professional gridiron football player who was a premier running back known for his speed and elusiveness. His trial on murder charges in 1995 was one of the most celebrated criminal trials in American history.
Simpson played football at Galileo High School in San Francisco, first as a tackle and then as a fullback. He attended San Francisco City College (1965–66) to achieve a scholastic record that allowed him to play at the University of Southern California (USC), where he set team records for yards gained by rushing: 1967, 1,415 yards; 1968, 1,709 yards. He was named All-American (1967–68), played in two Rose Bowl games, and won the Heisman Trophy as the best collegiate player of the season (1968). At USC he was also a member of a world-record-setting 440-yard relay team.

Simpson, who was often called “Juice” because of his energetic runs and because his initials could stand for “orange juice,” was the number one draft choice of the American Football League (AFL) Buffalo Bills in 1969. The following year the AFL merged with the National Football League (NFL). The Bills were members of the American Football Conference (AFC) of the NFL when Simpson set a single-season record for yards gained rushing (2,003) in 1973. The Bills were never a contending team during his stay, but he was a great box-office draw. Injuries to his knees prompted the Bills to trade him in 1978 to the San Francisco 49ers, but he retired after the 1979 season. His 1975 record of most touchdowns scored in a season (23) stood until 1983, and his 1973 season rushing record for most yards gained lasted until 1984, when it was broken by Eric Dickerson. Simpson led the AFC in rushing yardage four times (1972–73, 1975–76). His career total yards gained (11,236) was second in the all-time rankings at the time of his retirement. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1985.

After retiring from football, Simpson became a film and television actor and sports commentator. On June 12, 1994, his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman were stabbed to death outside her home in Los Angeles. Simpson was arrested and charged with the two murders on June 17; he pleaded not guilty and hired a team of prominent lawyers to handle his defense. His lengthy nationally televised trial became the focus of unprecedented media scrutiny. A jury acquitted Simpson of the murder charges on October 3, 1995. In a separate civil trial decision in 1997, he was found liable for the deaths of his ex-wife and Goldman and was ordered to pay $33.5 million in damages to the families. Simpson later collaborated (with Pablo F. Fenjves) on If I Did It, in which he hypothesized about how he would have committed the murders. Public outrage prevented its initial publication in 2006, but a bankruptcy court subsequently awarded the book’s rights to the Goldman family, who released the work in 2007.
Later that year, Simpson was arrested after he and several other men entered a Las Vegas hotel room and took memorabilia items that Simpson claimed had been stolen from him. The incident resulted in Simpson being charged with a number of crimes, including armed robbery and kidnapping. On October 3, 2008, a jury found him guilty of all charges. He was later sentenced to a minimum of nine years in prison, with a possible maximum sentence of 33 years. Simpson was granted parole in 2017.

62 OJ Simpson and the ‘Trial of the Century’ | 60 Minutes Australia
12 apr 2024
OJ Simpson’s infamous ‘trial of the century’ saw him controversially acquitted of double murder, but that was far from the last twist in the tale.
Synopsis | American Villain (2016)
As a footballer, there was none better than OJ Simpson. As a human, there aren’t too many worse. It’s been decades since Simpson was famously charged with murdering his former wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman. The court case, an eight-month spectacle fuelled by the public’s obsession with celebrity, ended with the jury’s surprising ‘not guilty’ verdict. But two years later, a civil court decided Simpson was liable for the deaths, and ordered him to pay more than $30 million in compensation. In 2008, OJ Simpson was jailed for 33 years after a botched armed robbery in Las Vegas. The one-time American hero was likely to be paroled, which meant more torment for the victims’ families.
