Murder trial of O. J. Simpson
*TRIGGER WARNING*
The O.J. Simpson trial revolved around the m-rder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994. The trial took place in 1995 and received enormous worldwide attention, earning it the nickname "the trial of the century." Although the prosecutors had a great deal of forensic evidence, the defense managed to cast doubt on the reliability of the evidence and the conduct of the police. Consequently, the jury acquitted Simpson of both m-rders. However, in 1997, in a civil lawsuit, he was held responsible for the deaths of Brown and Goldman and ordered to pay damages.
