He ran to football fame and made fortunes in movies. His trial for the murder of his former wife and her friend became an inflection point on race in America.
I really hope he donated his brain to science. The man went from world famous to villain in a single car chase. It’s rare that people fall from grace so far, so quickly. I am not excusing his heinous acts, but I will say it would make a lot more sense, in my mind, if this man’s anger and impulsivity was predicated on a TBI.

Why? He killed his wife in a fit of rage. There wasn’t anything special going on in his brain. A lot of pro athletes end up doing heinous crimes.
He was found innocent so he didn’t kill anyone.
I mean, he had been abusive for years, it was sadly not a unique nor surprising case, except for his fame, but fame doesn’t make you a good person.
