OJ Simpson's death from prostate cancer at age 76 has reignited discussions about his infamous trial and legacy. Director Floyd Russ's Netflix docuseries, "American Manhunt: OJ Simpson," revisits the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, aiming to present the case to a new generation. Despite his terminal illness, Simpson remained defiant, even suggesting he was 'fine' until the end, indicating a lack of remorse or reflection on his past. The docuseries seeks to unpack the societal impact of the trial that captivated a nation and forever changed public perception of celebrity and justice.
If you remember he said he was fine, recalls director Floyd Russ. So I always joke that he lied to us until the day he died, basically.
Russ is resubmitting the case, a national obsession that mushroomed into a worldwide phenomenon because of Simpson's sports and Hollywood celebrity, for Gen Z's consideration.
The day they set OJ Simpson free and left America in turmoil.
I didn't understand what was happening initially but then my parents divorced, and I wound up moving with my mom to an apartment complex in Brentwood.
