00:00Simpson is asking to be released on parole after serving nearly nine years for an armed robbery in Las Vegas.
00:08I've always thought I've been pretty good with people, and I've basically spent a conflict-free life.
00:15Minutes ago, Sidney Simpson finally decided to break her long silence after the death of her notorious father, O.J. Simpson.
00:22Once a celebrated sports star and actor, O.J. S. Life took a dark turn, casting a heavy shadow over his family.
00:30Growing up under this troubled legacy, Sidney, now known as Portia, has kept deep secrets about her father, secrets she's now ready to reveal.
00:39What shocking truths about O.J. Simpson are about to shake the foundations of his controversial past?
00:45Stay with us as we reveal Sidney Simpson's explosive revelations.
00:50Sidney Simpson's silent struggle.
00:52Sidney was just eight years old when her mother, Nicole, was tragically eliminated, and her father was accused of the crime.
00:59Five o'clock today marks 30 years since the gruesome discovery of the bodies of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman.
01:05Soon, police zeroed in on a suspect, O.J. Simpson, setting off a chain of events that would captivate the nation.
01:12Although the exact details of that day are still unclear, it seems Sidney believes her father may have had something to do with her mother's death.
01:18This belief has had a lasting impact on Sidney's life, keeping her under the shadow of her father's infamous past.
01:26Prepare yourself for the shocking truths that will emerge about her life in the shadow of a fallen star.
01:31In her attempt to live a normal life, Sidney has tried hard to avoid media attention, though it hasn't always been easy.
01:39In 2014, she made a big decision to change her name to Portia.
01:43This wasn't just a simple name change.
01:45It was her way of trying to distance herself from her father's troubled legacy.
01:49The early loss of her mother and the constant pressure of being connected to her father's reputation have likely caused deep emotional pain.
01:58Staying out of the public eye has probably been a way for Sidney to protect herself, allowing her to build her life on her own terms rather than letting it be defined by her father's actions.
02:09But this wasn't the most difficult part.
02:11Sidney's older sister has chosen a different path.
02:14Unlike Sidney, she has been more open about her thoughts, and her views are quite different from her sister's more private approach.
02:21Sidney and her sister Arnelle both faced emotional challenges during their legal battles with their father, but they handled it in different ways.
02:29Arnelle, unlike Sidney, still had a somewhat positive view of their father.
02:33She often defended him during court cases, even though they had their own issues, especially about how she lived her life.
02:40Things got so bad that he even thought about marrying her off just to get her out of the house.
02:45But despite all this, Arnelle still took her role as the oldest child seriously.
02:50She cared deeply for her younger siblings and tried to give them a stable life after their father's legal troubles.
02:56She even testified for her father during his eliminate trial and later in a robbery trial in 2008, where she pleaded with the parole board to release him after his nine-year sentence.
03:06During the parole hearing, Arnelle spoke with deep emotion, describing her father as her best friend and support system.
03:14He's like my best friend and my rock.
03:17We recognize that he is not the perfect man, but he's clearly a man and a father who has done his best to behave in a way that speaks to his overall nature and character.
03:27She talked about the difficulties her family faced because of the legal battles and asked for a second chance for her father, emphasizing his regret.
03:35Amidst all these challenges, Arnelle tried to rebuild her life, though her father's fame and infamy always cast a shadow over her.
03:43Her career, too, was affected by the trials, but she continues to work as a fashion show producer and rapper.
03:49She also takes care of her father's estate and stands by her brother.
03:53It's important to look at the events that shaped their lives to understand why Arnelle and Sidney saw their father so differently.
03:59O.J.'s turbulent marriage history began when he married his high school sweetheart, Marguerite White, before he became famous in the NFL.
04:08Besides football, O.J. also pursued acting, and the couple had only been married for a year when he won his first major award, the Heisman Trophy, in 1968.
04:18They were just 19 years old when they got married and stayed together for over a decade.
04:23Let's look at how fame and work pressures impacted O.J. and Marguerite's marriage.
04:28The Rise and Fall of a Star
04:30O.J. and Marguerite had three children, Arnelle, Jason, and Aaron.
04:35Like many couples, their relationship went through tough times, which eventually led them to separate for a while.
04:41A big part of the strain on their marriage was O.J.'s busy lifestyle.
04:46He was often away from home because of his demanding job.
04:49O.J. decided to live alone in a nice house in a Buffalo suburb while Marguerite stayed at their home in Brentwood.
04:56Their lawyers suggested another reason for their problems.
04:59As O.J.'s fame grew, their connection as a couple weakened.
05:04During these difficult times, Marguerite chose to stay out of the spotlight, likely because of her quiet nature.
05:10O.J. admitted that it was hard to involve Marguerite in his public life.
05:14Even though she preferred to stay out of the public eye, they couldn't go anywhere without drawing attention and being followed by photographers.
05:21Their marriage officially ended in March 1979, and by June 1980, things had gotten so bad that Marguerite reportedly threatened to call the police if O.J. didn't leave their Brentwood home.
05:33The tension between them, along with O.J.'s growing fame, definitely played a big role in their divorce.
05:39But that wasn't the only factor.
05:42O.J.'s relationship with Nicole Brown, which started two years before his divorce from Marguerite, also contributed.
05:49Nicole worked at a popular nightclub that O.J. frequented.
05:52Despite their age difference, there was an instant and strong attraction between them, as Nicole's cousin recalled.
05:58By 1985, O.J. and Nicole were married, and they had two children together, Justin Ryan and Sidney Brooke.
06:04But this marriage, too, faced serious challenges and ended even more painfully than his first.
06:10In the beginning, Nicole only heard praise from her husband, who often spoke highly of how she fit perfectly into his life, especially during a key time in his career.
06:20But underneath all the glamour, there were signs that things weren't as perfect as they seemed in their relationship.
06:26The biggest clue was O.J.S. controlling behavior, as he struggled to let Nicole have any independence.
06:31Friends and family noticed that Nicole became more and more isolated during her marriage to O.J.
06:37The violence didn't seem to stop as Nicole kept reporting these incidents.
06:42However, her family often urged her to go back to her violent husband.
06:46This push to reconcile was especially strong from Nicole's father, who had financial ties to O.J.
06:52O.J. had made a profitable investment for Nicole's father, which greatly improved the Brown family's finances.
06:58Nicole also mentioned that the violence often followed arguments about O.J.'s other romantic relationships.
07:05To make things worse, O.J. didn't seem to care about his cheating.
07:08He even reportedly admitted to having an affair with Tawny Keaton, and this affair supposedly lasted for a year while Nicole was pregnant with his child.
07:18In a revealing documentary called Who Eliminate Nicole?, it was highlighted that Nicole was married to O.J. Simpson.
07:25Despite this connection, Kris Jenner mentioned in an interview that she had never been romantically involved with O.J.
07:32Nicole's sister, Denise, shared in court that she once saw a fight between Nicole and O.J., where his behavior was extremely aggressive.
07:40O.J. had forcefully grabbed Nicole, pushed her against the wall, and then threw her outside.
07:45Denise also recalled that O.J. insisted both she and Nicole leave the house, pushing them out himself.
07:50Nicole once confided that during these episodes, O.J. had a cold, almost animal-like look, and his anger was easy to see.
07:59There was even an occasion when the couple tricked doctors at an x-ray facility, making them believe that Nicole's injuries were from a biking accident.
08:07Feeling overwhelmed by the constant turmoil, Nicole thought about ending the relationship.
08:12Before deciding to divorce, she wrote a letter to O.J., explaining how she often took the blame for his cheating and how she had forgiven him as much as she could.
08:21Next, see how Nicole's new life starts with echoes of the past, the O.J. Simpson tragedy.
08:28Their marriage officially ended on October 15, 1992, but their relationship didn't end there.
08:34After the divorce, Nicole began to adjust to her new life as a single mother, supported by a divorce settlement of $433,750 and $10,000 a month in child support.
08:47Despite their separation, Nicole and O.J. tried to reconcile between 1992 and October 1993.
08:54Unfortunately, this attempt was a mistake as O.J.'s temper remained volatile, made worse by Nicole's growing independence.
09:01O.J.'s S-behavior escalated from subtle control to outright tyranny.
09:07Kris Jenner revealed that Nicole felt increasingly threatened by O.J. and began confiding in friends about her fears, even saying that she believed O.J. might seriously harm her.
09:18Sadly, Nicole's fears turned out to be tragically accurate.
09:22The sequence of events that led to her untimely death began when the Simpson family attended a movie premiere.
09:28Soon after, Nicole and O.J. took their children to visit friends, including Kris and Caitlyn Jenner, along with Kris's four children.
09:37But this wasn't the worst part.
09:39By May 1994, Nicole was actively searching for a new home, eager to start fresh and put distance between herself and O.J.
09:47On the evening of June 12, 1994, Nicole received a phone call from O.J. around 8 p.m. and another from her mother at 9.40 p.m., who mentioned that she had left her glasses at the restaurant where they had dined.
10:00A friend from the restaurant, Ron Goldman, offered to bring the glasses to Nicole later that evening.
10:06Around 10 p.m., neighbors heard Nicole's dog barking and noticed it acting strangely.
10:11They followed the dog, which had blood on its paws, back to Nicole's house, where they made a horrifying discovery.
10:18Both Nicole and Ron Goldman had been brutally eliminated.
10:22Their bodies showed signs of a violent struggle.
10:24Nicole had fatal injuries to her neck and Ron had deep knife wounds.
10:28Nicole was buried shortly after, on June 16, 1994, leaving the community in shock and mourning over the brutal nature of her death.
10:37When Nicole passed away, her husband, who had a reputation for being abusive, became the main suspect in her death.
10:44When O.J. was arrested and put on trial, he quickly became the focus because of his well-known history of anger and aggression.
10:51After the tragic event, reports suggested that O.J. tried to stay hidden,
10:55staying in an SUV driven by his friend, A.C. Cowlings.
10:59O.J. seemed determined to avoid the police, especially after realizing the serious accusations against him.
11:06This led to a high-speed chase that lasted over an hour, during which it was believed he was armed.
11:11The chase was broadcast live on TV, drawing an audience of 95 million people.
11:17As viewers watched his arrest at his home in Brentwood, California, opinions were split.
11:22Some people supported him, while others were convinced he was guilty.
11:26In court, during his preliminary hearing on July 22, 1994, Simpson pleaded not guilty.
11:33The trial was set to continue on January 24, 1995, under Judge Lance Ito.
11:39The prosecution presented evidence of physical violence Nicole had suffered before their separation in 1992.
11:45Those who believed O.J. was guilty pointed to his past violent behavior as a strong reason for the elimination.
11:53But this wasn't the only thing that came up during the trial.
11:57O.J.'s defense team, known as the Dream Team, included high-profile lawyers like F. Lee Bailey,
12:03Robert Blazier, Sean Chapman Holley, Robert Shapiro, Alan Dershowitz, and Robert Kardashian.
12:09They argued that the evidence had been tampered with and accused the lead prosecutor, Detective Mark Fuhrman, of racism.
12:18The defense claimed that blood-stained leather gloves found at O.J.'s house were planted and couldn't belong to him because they were too small.
12:26Now, the trial begins, capturing the attention of the entire country.
12:31America's divided response.
12:33The trial quickly became a major event, with the public deeply divided.
12:38Many white Americans were convinced of O.J.'s guilt, while many African Americans believed he was innocent.
12:44The trial turned into a national spectacle, with everyone eagerly watching until the end.
12:51After long deliberations on October 2, 1995, the jury reached a verdict.
12:56However, Judge Ito delayed the announcement until the next day, when he declared O.J. Simpson not guilty of the elimination of Ronald Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson leading to his immediate release.
13:08The verdict sparked mixed reactions.
13:10Many African Americans celebrated it as a victory against a biased system, while many white Americans were deeply disappointed.
13:18But the story didn't end there.
13:19Tawney Catan, with whom O.J. had an affair during his marriage to Nicole, made waves by suggesting she had important information about Nicole's death, which she planned to reveal in her upcoming memoir.
13:32According to a report by The Sun, O.J. nearly confessed to Tawney that he was responsible for the deaths.
13:38But Tawney's reasons for withholding this information until her memoir's release were unclear.
13:43Journalist Heaton reported that Tawney had reached out to him shortly before her death about this crucial information, suggesting that some people might not have wanted her to live long enough to publish her memoir.
13:55Tawney Catan passed away at 59, as reported in March by The Sun.
14:01Even after the trial ended, the victims' families pursued civil action against O.J. for the loss of their loved ones.
14:08In the end, the jury awarded $35 million to both families.
14:11However, O.J. didn't consistently make payments, claiming he was bankrupt.
14:16Despite this, Goldman's father accused O.J. of having enough money to move to Florida, where bankruptcy laws could protect his assets.
14:25The Brown family tried to stop O.J.'s book from being published, but later decided to take over the rights to the book to recover some of the money they were owed.
14:34Unfortunately, the money from the book sales wasn't nearly enough to cover the debt.
14:38Goldman revealed that over the years, O.J. had only paid a total of $13,000.
14:44Amidst these ongoing legal battles, people began to wonder about O.J.'s children and where they were during all this turmoil.
14:51But the Browns didn't want to give up the children easily, especially when O.J. tried to get full custody.
14:56Despite their resistance, the court eventually sided with O.J.
15:01It was surprising because courts usually favor biological parents.
15:05But given O.J.'s history of domestic violence, many thought the decision was unexpected, even though there was no evidence that he had ever harmed his children.
15:14But that wasn't the end of it.
15:15The Browns continued fighting for custody for another five years.
15:19They appealed the court's decision, and eventually the court acknowledged the seriousness of the case and awarded guardianship to the Browns.
15:27One of the main reasons for this back-and-forth battle was the children's wish to stay with their father.
15:32In the end, the Browns gave up their fight and agreed to move with O.J. to Florida.
15:36Despite all the hardships, the Browns kept in contact with O.J., even though they had to hide their identities.
15:43Browns' sister Tanya mentioned that they still treated O.J. with respect, despite everything that had happened.
15:49After the trial, the questions don't end as the legal struggles continue.
15:54The strange battles behind O.J.
15:57Family drama.
15:59But this wasn't the worst part.
16:00Public suspicion never fully went away.
16:03People kept debating whether O.J. was really responsible for Nicole's death.
16:08On top of that, there was speculation about Jason Simpson, O.J.'s second child from his first marriage.
16:14Born in 1970, Jason had witnessed the relationship between his father and Nicole Brown.
16:20Throughout his life, Jason struggled with developmental and behavioral issues.
16:24He turned to alcohol and drugs by the age of 14 and even attempted several times.
16:29Before Nicole and her friend were eliminated, it came out that Jason had mental health problems
16:34and a history of violent behavior, including multiple arrests for things like assault and
16:39driving under the influence.
16:41A few months after the civil trial began in October 1996, Simpson was found responsible in
16:47a civil court for the deaths of Nicole Brown and Ronald Goldman.
16:50Even though Simpson had already served time in prison and was released, Goldman's father
16:56sued him for $96 million in damages.
16:59The jury decided that Simpson should pay $35 million to both families.
17:04However, he didn't keep up with the payments, claiming he was bankrupt.
17:08Goldman's father, though, believed Simpson had enough money to move to Florida where bankruptcy
17:12laws might protect him.
17:14The Brown family tried to stop the release of Simpson's book but eventually agreed to buy the
17:18rights to the book in an attempt to recover some of the money owed to them.
17:23Unfortunately, the money from the book sales wasn't enough to cover the debt.
17:27Goldman revealed that over many years, Simpson had only paid a total of $13,000.
17:33In the midst of all these legal battles, people started wondering what was happening with Simpson's
17:38children.
17:39During Simpson's trials, the Browns were taking care of Justin and Sidney.
17:43After Simpson was acquitted, custody of the children was shared, but the Browns were reluctant
17:48to let them go, especially when Simpson sought full custody.
17:52The legal battle ended with a court ruling in favor of Simpson.
17:56It seemed unlikely for the Browns to win custody since courts usually prefer biological parents.
18:03But given Simpson's history of domestic violence against his ex-wife, the decision was surprising,
18:09even though there was no evidence he had harmed his children.
18:12But this wasn't the worst part.
18:13Despite the court's decision, the Browns didn't give up.
18:18They fought for custody for another five years.
18:21Finally, the court acknowledged how serious the case was and gave guardianship to the Browns.
18:27A major factor in the custody fight was the children's desire to stay with their father.
18:31This led the Browns to drop their case and move to Florida with Simpson.
18:36Despite the tough situation, the Browns kept in touch with him, even though they had to keep
18:41their identities hidden.
18:43Brown's sister Tanya mentioned that she continued to treat him with respect, no matter what had
18:47happened in the past.
