Highway Pursuit, 1994
Orenthal James Simpson, better known as O.J. Simpson, or “The Juice” was one of the most famous football players in the NFL’s history. In 1973, just a few years of him playing for the Buffalo Bills, he became the first player to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a single season. However, in 1994, O.J. would be known for something else.
In 1994, Simpson became a person of interest then tried for the death of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman. The law requested that he turn himself in, but instead, he became the object of a highway pursuit in his friend, Al Cowlings’, 1993 Ford Bronco SUV. He was found not guilty, a decision that remains controversial to this day.
