Ep 5: O.J Simpson-From Fame to Blame

Motive to Murder

PART 2

On this weeks 2 part episode we delve into the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.

On the evening of Sunday, 12th June 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson, aged 35, was stabbed to death outside her home, along with her friend, 25-year-old restaurant waiter, Ron Goldman. Her body was discovered shortly after midnight on 13th June by a neighbour.

This was a brutal and frenzied attack which led to O.J Simpson being arrested as the prime suspect in the murders. Evidence found at the scene implicated Simpson as well as evidence in his Ford Bronco and at his house of residence.

The trial of OJ Simpson would last for 11 months with twist and turns like you could not imagine. Was OJ Simpson, the all American Football legend be capable of committing this horrific murder. The evidence is key in any investigation, and in this case there was a mass of it.
