- On October 3, 1995, a California jury found O.J. Simpson not guilty in the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman. Dubbed “The Trial of the Century,” millions of Americans were glued to their televisions as the verdict was read in court. Take a look back as Inside Edition speaks to Simpson’s brother, friends of the victims and those hosting viewing parties in Los Angeles on the day of the historic verdict. #InsideEdition
Brian Griffin: “What the hell!”
Brian’s Roommate: “Yeah!”
BOTH: “Maybe we should get different roommates!”
YEAH MAYBE WE SHOUUUUUUULD
When inside edition covered real news
A murder case is "real news"?
@@CristianCiupitu relevant news
Snow “relevant” bruh this was 1995
@@CristianCiupitu yes
They still do to this day.
I was in college and all it did was separate our campus.
Blacks were thrilled and everyone else appalled. Regardless of “injustice by police brutality”, two people were murdered in a horrific way.
Timi Nathus so cheer for the death of two innocent people? That makes sense. 🤦♂️
derek - good job at deflecting
I was happy and I'm black
Ricardo Cadet Huh?
Anyone who refers to black people as “blacks” clearly feels a certain way about the race...
Look a Robert Kardashiens face. He knew the truth.
Robert Kardashian had that look on his face because he knew his wife and daughters and son would go on in life and screw black men and women and have babies with blacks.
Yeah the son did it. Oj took the charge and knew he would be found not guilty
Robert Kardashian's family became BILLIONARES AFTER THIS TRAIL DISGUSTING***
That would be his face if he saw his daughters today smh that guy screwed over the world by having his own children smh

About the INNOCENT
VERDICT....that was just
Priceless..after all these
Years the murderer is
Still out there..
Wait you’re suggesting it was Kim? Interesting theory... but why?
Bottom Line: There's no way a jury of 9 blacks were ever going to find this man guilty.
White guys been getting away with all types of crime but in this one a brotha was find no Guilty ✊🏿
There was no proof that OJ committed the murders.... But there *WAS* proof that the police tampered with evidence which played a huge role in the verdict...... Also all white Jurors have declared plenty of "guilty" white men "not guilty"... 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
@Forward To The Past Doesn't mean its okay for OJ to get away with it. There is no eye for an eye. Two wrongs don't make a right.
@@gocrazy3564 Except there was proof OJ committed the murders, and his DNA was found everywhere. And his book confessed his guilt. He committed the murders, that's the facts. Jury sucked.
I wonder what everyone thinks now after hearing the lost confession with O.J. Simpson that Fox released...
I agree with you. That was some powerful stuff. He admits to being there, isn't that bad enough? Whether he actually did it himself I cannot say I know this for an absolute fact. But I do believe he was there and he was at least a witness. What do you think?
OJ kills two people with a knife gets' no blood on him,gets' in the Bronco drives home.Dispose's of the knife ,shoe and bloody clothing,drops a glove at the murder scene and one on his property.Why did Ron leave his car at the Mezzaluna and rode to the murder scene with Andrea Scott.???
Here is what people don’t get. The prosecution wants you to believe that he killed 2 people and that he got rid of all the bloody clothes except 2 socks that OJ supposedly left on the floor at the foot of the bed.. cmon people, that is reasonable doubt right there.
Rober Kardashian looks so surprised that they said not guilty.
I understand Keith was angry, but did he not understand that OJ was entitled to a legal defense according to the constitution? And if his defense team sold him out, like Keith seems to have wanted, OJ could’ve just appealed his conviction and said he had inadequate defense…and he’d be right.
0:04: Who’s Orenjal James Simpson? LOL!
Rest in peace.
All I got to say is innocent men don't run
Bobby Kardashian looked sick
They were mad about oj so they had to get the next best thing bill cosby
Ignorant post.
Tiana Boyd lmfaooo
Lmao right
Justice was served..... Get over it.
Charles Charlemagne he’s innocent, the only one that’s mentioning race is you
Charles Charlemagne Still plating the race card
Charles Charlemagne if you want to play the victim and race card than its on you, get out your feelings and research you whining moron.
No it wasn't
Well I can only assume the golf course is OJ’s number one suspect for who committed the murders since he spends most of his time there.
This was the trial of the century that was broadcasted on CourtTV then later on it was the same trial that ended CourtTV.
The trial may be fair but the system wasn't
If your white and mad just remember Roy and Carolyn Bryant and J. W. Milam
Mr Kardashian face after hearing verdict
The one guy who knew for sure… well…two guys.
Robert Sr..
All the defense lawyers knew. They simply did their job to challenge the prosecution’s case. Provide OJ Simpson with his defense.
Plot Twist: He’s actually guilty
DUDE STOP SPOILING THE STORY
wow no one knew
Everybody knows he's guilty. Oj is wacko
FreshlySnipes funny. Still never happened. R.i.p Emmit Till.
Plot twist: Same society elected Trump. Make you think if OJ was found guilty, We would never have Trump as president
i don't think i've ever seen a lawyer more disappointed to see his client walk free.
Hell I’m sure when he received the checks he was happy
Because he knew his son was the real murder
Because he wasn't on O.J.'s side.
The ONLY legal advocates for O.J., were Cochran and Douglas.
I honestly feel bad for the Kardashians looking back at this trial.... I think Robert only took the case considering that was his best friend at the time.... I honestly think everyone would have probably done the same thing as well if their best friend was accused of murder, he was catastrophically not the same after the trial and some think it caused his death.
Fred Goldman’s agony will always haunt me... he was broken at that moment.
His agony was caused because he didn't have a relationship with his son when he died.
fred never cared for his son. look it up it was only when he passed away that why he cries now because he wished he had treated ron better. when ron wanted money he never lend it to him. he shunned him away also his wife patty goldman was married to a mafia guy joey ippilitto gangster man and supplie of cocaine for the city of brentwood.
there mafia ties to his wife patty goldman look up joey ippolitto he a drug cartel married to patty goldman when he was in prison, she went with fred goldman
Fred Goldman was a basket case thru this whole ordeal and he never got the justice he wanted. "Last June 12 of 1994 was the first nightmare... this is the second and I never forgotten that statement he made. The Brown Family too and Nicole Brown Simpson called the police 9 times and the system failed her too and she begged for help and she even TOLD her friends OJ is going to kill me and he will get away with it. I guess the 911 tapes and the other evidence that the jury heard they threw that all out the window***** OJ is 100% guilty you think he would lay low. He even wrote a book called IF I DID IT**** THAT SAIDS ALOT***
You’re still crying about OJ? Get over it.
I wonder if the jury still has any of the money he paid them to find him not guilty 🤔
Lol your no t a racist lmao
@@gregorytate7484 if u look away from the race and on the evidence instead.. theres only one option.. guilty as hell 😁
Hailey13 he didn’t even have to pay them. They were all black and didn’t get a penny from him. Not saying he is guilty. Not saying he isn’t guilty. The court decided what they decided, and that’s that.
Hailey13 They were mostly black. This became a race thing because of Rodney King. They were going to vote innocent no matter what. It is what it is now. At least he spent some time in prison where he belongs. Truly sick
He used the chewbacca defence
Simple, it was revenge for Rodney King
Yes
and rightfully so
@@monicasaenz141 eye for an eye sweetie 😘😘
I READ this article that one of the jurors who is a black lady said it was revenge for rodney king. THOSE GLOVES DIDN'T FIT OJ SIMPSON HIS HANDS WERE WAY TOO BIG. I WOULD HAVE AQUITTED OJ TOO
@@monicasaenz141 nothing disgusting about the truth you the one that,s ignorant and disgusting baby
After watching The people vs OJ Simpson plays with my feelings about this trial I feel strongly for OJ but there is definitely evidence he totally did it but watching this shows how much detail the show has, every quote in the show is on point to real life
😂 same, just finished watching it on Netflix it's so accurate. great show

GUILTY !!
Innocent.

@@montywoodgrain5353why?
We can't blame the jury, nor the prosecution, It was the system that was twisted by an amazing lawyer like Johnie.
"IF it doesn't fit, you must AQUIT".

You blame the blue Isis domestic terrorist murderers … you call them cops, blame the prosecution it was a slam dunk case, the system in AmeriKKKa isn’t twisted it is working exactly as it was designed too! But, you can’t break the law to justify the law …the verdict was the right one even though we all know what happened! Blue Isis, Prosecution, and Amerikkka is to blame!
Regardless, he was convicted of the murders in Las Vegas …33 years for stealing back your own property! Really??? That’s AmeriKKKa and His stupidity!
Idk I kinda blame the prosecution
As Steve Harvey says...." oj killed everybody in that driveway"!!!
But that damn dog was TOO QUICK for ojs ass
Oh, so now, Steve Harvey was an eyewitness?
Tom.
Steve is a lunatic for saying that 🤣
We still going on about this disgrace to humanity event?
No Honor the disgrace was the rodney king verdict
Mandingo Warrior and the Emmit till verdict
A guy being beaten after avading arrest and then being awarded $3.8 million in damages is more of a disgrace to humanity than two innocent people being brutally murdered and their killer let off, despite overwhelming evidence against him? That's more of a disgrace? Really?? and the fact that these racists say "Revenge for Rodney King"? Rodney King became a millionaire, fleeing arrest was the best decision he ever made.
@Blue101 Blue102 Exactly. IMO being beat was still worse in hindsight. Cant change your color lol.
@Blue101 Blue102 also since there was some much tension because of the Rodney King beating there were worries that there would be another riot if OJ was found guilty
Shouldve gotten a dream team then if you wanted to win a trial.
Imagine blaming someone for doing their job too well...lmao.
Imagine expecting people to have a conscience SMH
@@ello8116 Oh you’re right, no more trials and defense attorneys. When the government says your guilty, you goto prison now. No due process anymore.

welcome to America, where murder is no longer a crime....
This was in 1995 you idiot
...but they said that he didn’t kill anyone it’s not the judges fault the judge couldn’t send him to jail because there was proof that he was innocent the judge couldn’t send him to jail because that would be abusing power and breaking another law
The law itself hasn't changed much since 1995.
The way law is practised however...
white people been doing it 400 years soo what,s good for the goose is good for the gander
Not in California
He was guilty
He was acquitted
Eternal Judah but we all know he did it
"Why jury systems do not work"
Well, he has since this incident, been involved in several crimes. The most recent one, where he had been involved in armed robbery and kidnapping - sentences with 33 years…
He was guilty, no doubt about that. Just merely kudos to incredible defence lawyers.
Several crimes?
It was his memorabilia.
I still can't believe he was found "not guilty"
Really? Maybe if OJ were white it wouldn't be that hard to believe.
OJ is INNOCENT !!
Jason Simpson is GUILTY !!
He didn't do it
We really don’t know what happened.
Believe it🤡
I think it’s strait forward. The jury had 9 black people, 8 black women and 1 black man.
The prosecutor were too progressive for their own good, they didn’t think race was an issue. They thought truth is all they need. Lol.
The funny thing the judge also help them get rid of so many black doing the prosecutor but I believe if it was I other way round and the person was a white celebrity accused of killing is ex black wife the guy would walk out as easy as the weather can change without doing time in jail so I 💯 agree race play a big role
I stopped reading after 'strait forward'. can't converse with a dumbass.
@@gomes3776 Have you ever seen the media even once try to make a white person look Innocent who was clearly guilty?
If OJ was white the whole "racist cops planted evidence" excuse would have gotten eye rolls and laughs which it should in this case when you look at the actual facts.
@kilahchris it's kind of obvious.......they took a vote originally.....it was 10 not guilty to 2 guilty. The juror that threw the Black Power fist stood up and said that if anyone has reasons why they think we should change our votes they need to speak up now and no one did. CLEARLY the 2 white jurors thought he was guilty and were afraid to say anything.
At least that is what they said in Kim Goldman's podcast.
kilahchris most were black
OJ DID IT! YOU CAN TELL IF YOU LOOK ROBERT KARDASHIAN HE IS IN SHOCK AND VERY SURPRISED
Indie Dreamer to be honest with you everyone was surprised but there was proof that he was innocent
wrong,innocent.
Kardashian had hired Steve Wascz to kill Nicole.
Robert kardashian look like here's seen a ghost or knows something behind the murder of Nicole than O.J. Simpson by is impression and if O.J. Got something to do with is wife murder then is going to have to live with this is all life but the best running back legend was find no Guilty ✊🏿
He was not happy....he knew that day he failed the lord
I agree that O.J. was 1000% guilty and deserved to rott in jail. but what about al the black people who got killed by white people and justice also did not prevail. The list is endless😢
Your right. I hate the race card, but that Cop was a total racist scum bag, who admitted planting evidence. Where's all the justice for the people's lives he ruined?
You can't justify injustice. Stop trying and stop turning everything into a race issue. More black people kill black people than white people do.
You mean all the black people who were killed by OTHER BLACK PEOPLE?
@@summerruby201 yes i'm aware of that problem too. I was pointing out that specific list because of the climate the world(usa) was in back then. Thats all. I know that biggest problem that the black man has is the black-man himself.
1 question still remains
“If O.j Simpson didn’t murder them, who did”
His son
I think we know
his son Jason Simpson
A drug cartel
Glen Rogers
That was for Rodney King ✊🏾
OJ is in Hell right now looking up at us.
*The judge be on coke*
_Bob McCoy yeah but it wasn't his decision
_Bob McCoy not true
Minouche Jean The jury selection was kind of his decision
Talk normal
It was up to the jury and the people and God and O.J. Was not Guilty
Better to let ten guilty men go free than to have one innocent man imprisoned unjustly. OJ was one of those ten.
He got us in the first half ngl
O.J. VS THE PEOPLE send me here great documents
He killed her I know he did 🤬
Best running back was find No Guilty ✊🏿
So?
Gomez 100 Cause the jury was full of racist black woman who hated whites. If the races were swapped he’d be found guilty as day... idiot
You was there? If not u don't know a damn thing rip to OJ
Even his own family knew he did it, don't let them fool you. Especially Arnelle..it was her idea for him to come out with " if I did it"
He didn’t do it but I think he knows who did. People say it was his son.
We don’t know what happened.
We all know why theres no conviction in this case.. cos the killer is right there.. his name is o j simpson 🤣
Nope. Tell cops to stop being racist and planting evidence
Took nearly 30 years, but OJ FINALLY got what was coming to him, yesterday.
He got what everyone on this world will eventually experience. Old age

You don't know how you would respond in the situation! Your a nobody!!! Anyway, OJ is innocent and free! So, get over it! I bet you didn't even watch the trial gavel to gavel! If you had, you would know that verdict is correct!!!
I wish the jury had the guts to vote him guilty. But prefer pressure and the fact that the guilty verdict would of caused the riot in Los Angeles.
Man nobody care this payback for Rodney king 😅
Dude, that's why it's called a trial. There's a prosecution and a defense. If that was the case why have defense attorneys? Grow up people. And let's be clear, he was found innocent, but that doesn't mean he didn't do it.
i love how these people use the fact he was found innocent as a counter argument as if the justice system isn't incredibly flawed. guilty people walk free all the time it's so dumb lmfao.

@@hysteriafemyour racism is really showing here and I’m white…you keep commenting with hate in your heart and no evidence to back up that OJ did it

Hey, I think OJ is guilty as much as the next guy, but Nicole's ex did NOT seem genuine when describing his feelings for the verdict. It almost seemed rehearsed. Everyone else seemed to have a genuine reaction, though.
people express feelings differently
OJ is INNOCENT !!
Jason Simpson is GUILTY !!
Genuine reaction or not, the best piece of ass he ever had was killed. She was a great looking girl and I'm sure a great lay. You got to feel sorry for the poor guy.
Hey, you're not the only idiot that thinks OJ is guilty!
How can you lose a case with so much damn evidence.......
EFZ-GAMING -The evidence were found months later,eg the blood on the back gate were three weeks later.
what evidence? you mean the blood that officers planted at the scene?
E L I T E GHST An officer planting evidence is reasonable doubt. To convict someone of this kind of crime needs absolutely no doubt. Not to mention the jury of racist black woman who hated whites. A lot played into it. I believe he did it with help of his son. They found fingerprints that were never tested to his. It’s be nice to see his son stand trial for this and oj knowing it’s his fault
Miracle White
They were killed by a left handed person wearing a glove.
He was right handed, the glove didn’t fit.
The blood magically appeared 3weeks later
I asked myself the same thing about the Zimmerman verdict
In hell for bad acting not murder
We all know that he's guilty.
We' speak for yourself o.j is innocent
I'm not black I'm OJ.........OK.
Jason Simpson is there killer.
He did it ... Dam shame OJ
OJ is INNOCENT. ...
Jason Simpson is the KILLER !!
I remember that day . The gloves, the gloves ;is what him is what won his case they clearly didn't fit. That man is taking it pretty hard for someone who was her EX lover 🤔
Robs face is the most messed up. He knows.
Whatever the reason, a guilty man went free that day. That’s ok. He ended up going to jail for other violent crimes against people. Broke. Hated by all.
*Hated by some.
Not o.k. He got to live a normal lifespan,got out of paying the wifes family the judgement and even kept his kids .
I’ll never forget I was in 5th grade and our teacher circled us around the radio to listen to the verdict
He will answered for this..
It's a racial thing. I'd ur black you innocent.
Thank u for trying to get ur trophies
ba k.
Lora
He already did, the jury rendered the correct verdict.
its disguisting to watch ppl celebrating his acquittal while 2 ppl lost their lives
They should find the guy who did it then.
Now God almighty is his Judge and you can’t fool him. The only one who can help him is Jesus as his eternal lawyer. If he left earth without him all is decided for him by now. Fact!
The OJ Simpson verdict was a racially divisive issue. Black people where elated because they thought in the wake of the revelations about the racist Mark Furman and a history of racial insensitivity by the LAPD that was a case of a black man being framed by the mostly white establishment. White people where angered because they thought an abusive husband who had murdered an ex wife because of jealousy got away with murder. But if since the whole "If I Did It" book controversy I think most can concede that OJ is probably guilty.
He was clearly guilty.
Nope his son was more guilty than him
@MorriseyTheSnakeRoberts OJ clearly did it we all know he did it.
he got away with 2 murders???
O.J. Was find👂🏾No Guilty speak to the hand if you got answer ✋🏾
1.5 cc's of OJs' blood still missing.
Yep
johnie cochran got in their heads he manipulated the jury to make them believe he didnt do it, money talks I see
Sounds like he did his job.
I feel bad for the families. They have been through so much. I was not happy with the verdict but I dont think he will be a threat now. He seems to have turned his life around. I just pray the families can get the money they were ordered someday. If he has truly changed, even though found not guilty criminally, he should pay them. He was found guilty in civil court.
O.J. Pay them if is find no Guilty is not is responsibility best running back ✊🏿
hmmm he was convicted in 2008 for armed robbery and kidnapping
Don't feel bad for the Browns, they knew all about the domestic abuse and did nothing to help Nicole when she begged them. They were too busy making money from the Hertz dealership OJ set Nicole's father up with. He had essentially bought Nicole from him like a trophy.
If they haven’t received one single penny of it in 24 friggin’ years as Mr Goldman has previously claimed, I don’t think they’re gonna be getting it

He was the first man to get off of a crime... For being black.
I always felt so bad for Christopher Darden. He fought so hard for justice for the Brown and Goldman families, but couldn't deliver. What he said was true, he was not bitter or angry; he was broken and devastated.
Cannot believe this. Were these people asleep during court? Unbelievable!
Reverse racists. Period. They wanted to get one back on the white man. Period.
Divide and conquer. It's what this country is all about. A divided population can be controlled easily.

@@ashleyarbuckle5254 his son probably did it. If there is blood on his hand, HOW IS HIS GLOVE GOOD. They confirmed that the killer was left handed
Guess who isnt left handed, OJ, guess who is, HIS SON. And the knife used to kill is his sons. Not only that but his son had anger bursts and most likely he had an anger burst or something similiar to it and killed her. What did oj do, probably cleaned up the crime scene abd took the blame. But i dont really care about politics too much and i just wanted you guys to hear me out... PEACE
bro killed 2 white people and got away with it bro him fr but RIP to those 2
He is shocked that he is acquitted
what you're forgetting is that he had to pay 33 million dollars to the families because, in that court, reasonable doubt is thrown out the window. The verdict was fair because there was reasonable doubt because the defense attorneys did a good job. Whether the verdict was right or wrong, it was at least fair.
Anyone could put a glove on that doesn’t fit as you saw he did put it on and could kill someone with a tight glove on
I believe I have heard the Goldman family hasn't received a single penny of that 33 million
No,he did noT pay .
Nicole’s former lover. Looks very suspicious not gonna lie.
Looks like a mafioso.

After all the blacks that were murdered by lynching in America and the Rodney King beating I can't blame their happiness.

@@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621no, but white people were absurd. So many white juries let killers walk free. Just look up the Emmett Till case or the case of the men who blew up an African American church in Birmingham and killed little girls. No one was complaining about the justice system in mainstream American then. Of course past wrongs don’t make a right, but the LAPD reaped what they sowed. The history of that department was atrocious, and it caught up with them.

No that was the job of the LAPD, and they dropped the ball. It's great that OJ is a free man, while Nicole and Ron rot in their graves.

The gloves didn’t fit. This was a verdict based on reasonable doubt not emotions.
He had a pair of gloves already on and I can easily act like gloves don't fit. I wear xl gloves and i can make a medium fit if i have to he was trying to not get it on.
