Best Answer

After retiring from football, O.J. continued his acting career, notably small roles in the Naked Gun comedies (1988, 1991, 1994). After 7 years of marriage, his second wife, Nicole Simpson, filed for divorce in 1992.

He became the prime suspect in the gruesome stabbing murders of Nicole and her friend Ron Goldman in June 1994. Simpson was arrested and tried for the murders, but was acquitted in October 1995 after a sensational trial.

However, in 1997, he was found responsible for the murders in a civil suit filed by the Browns and Goldmans, and ordered to pay millions for their deaths. Only a small portion was ever paid, though a bankruptcy court seized the proceeds from a book dealing with the murders.

In 2001, he was acquitted of an assault charge after a traffic incident.

Simpson eventually wound up in jail after a strange incident in 2007, in which he and three other men took Sports Memorabilia from a Las Vegas hotel room. Simpson claimed he was recovering property stolen from him, but the three others testified against him in his 2008 trial, leading to a 33-year prison sentence for kidnapping and armed robbery. He will be eligible for parole in October, 2017 when he will be 70 years old.
