O.J. Simpson, one of the greatest running backs in history and a controversial public figure, passes at the age of 76 after battling prostate cancer. Born July 9, 1947, in San Francisco, California, Simpson rose to fame as a running back at the University of Southern California (USC), winning the Heisman Trophy in 1968. He played professionally for 11 seasons, primarily with the Buffalo Bills, becoming one of the greatest running backs in history and breaking numerous records. After his football career, Simpson found success as an actor and sports commentator.

In 1994, Simpson was accused of murdering his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman. His televised criminal trial dubbed the "Trial of the Century," captivated the nation, sparking intense debates about race and police conduct.

In 2008, he was convicted of armed robbery and kidnapping in Las Vegas and served nine years in prison before being released on parole in 2017. Simpson remains a controversial figure, with many believing he was guilty of the murders despite his criminal acquittal.
