Former actor and American Football star OJ Simpson DID kill wife Nicole Brown and lover Ron Goldman, a former girlfriend has claimed. 

Simpson, who was cleared by a jury of murder, supposedly confessed all to Christie Prody whilst high on cocaine and revealed 

details he wouldn't otherwise have been aware of. She says, "he was 

telling me details only the killer would've known." 

Her revelations followed a British Broadcasting Corporation 

documentary shown on Tuesday, Tuesday October 30th, which claimed Los Angeles police faked evidence against him. 

Simpson, who fled to Florida after the 1995 trial, was on 4 

February 1997 found liable for the deaths and ordered to pay 25 

million to relatives of the victims. 

Prody, who had a four-year affair with Simpson says, "I could see 

that if my relationship with OJ went on, I could end up like 

Nicole.” 

Orenthal James Simpson was born in Portero Hill, San Francisco, California, on 9 July 1947 and became famous as the running back for the Buffalo Bills wearing shirt number 32. 

Following his retirement he became a moderately successful actor 

appearing in the Airplane comedy series. 

On 12 June 1994 his 35-year-old ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson 

and her 25-year-old waiter boyfriend, Ronald Goldman, were murdered at her home, 875 South Bundy Drive, Beverly Hills. 

On 17 June 1994, after a spectacular police chase Simpson was 

arrested and charged with the murders. 

After a long and controversial trial (beginning on 23 January 

1995) in which at least one of his defense team expressed his 

belief in Simpson's guilt, the former football player was acquitted 

on both charges – Wenn.
