It took nine months before O.J. Simpson was handed a verdict
The trial was immediately called “The Trial of the Century,” with millions tuning in each day to see new evidence emerge. There was a great deal of circumstantial and physical evidence linking O.J. Simpson to the heinous crimes. However, his crew had their own version of events that appeared to exonerate Simpson. It is estimated that over 100 million people tuned in to hear the decision. It had been a long road, and Simpson was declared not guilty in a dramatic twist. Many thought he was the only person who could have committed the crimes, but he was now free. No one was ever investigated or arrested in connection with the deaths.

The courtroom drama lasted nearly a year before things heated up. Many people, though, were left thinking the same thing: what would happen to O.J. Simpson and Nicole Brown’s two children? After all, Sydney and Justin had already lost their mother while they were upstairs. In an even more contentious move, the judge granted Simpson’s petition for full custody of the children. Many people all over the world struggled to believe Simpson was innocent. Nonetheless, the fact that O.J. was not charged with any crime seems to be sufficient for the judge to allow him to continue his life with his remaining family.
