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.

    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.
