Summary
O.J. Simpson is dead. His family announced the news this morning on his X account, saying he lost his battle with cancer on Wednesday. He leaves behind a complicated and controversial legacy. While he initially gained fame as a football great who segued into several movie roles, he became better known for his murder trial. Back in the mid-90s, he was put on trial for the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman. That trial - which was televised - captivated the nation and ended with an acquittal that shocked almost everybody. And now - with his death - people are weighing in online with their thoughts. And Richies, those thoughts are decidedly mixed.
