O.J. Simpson, the former NFL star and actor once acquitted of double murder, has died from cancer at age 76. Simpson’s legal saga, including a televised slow-speed chase and a sensational trial that ended in acquittal, captivated the nation. Despite his acquittal, a civil jury later found him liable for the deaths, resulting in a $33.5 million judgment. Simpson’s later years saw him convicted of armed robbery, serving nine years before being paroled. His death was confirmed by a family statement, noting he was surrounded by loved ones.
