O.J.辛普森(O.J. Simpson)是一位著名的美國前職業美式足球運動員、演員和電視名人。全名是Orenthal James Simpson,生於1947年7月9日。在他的運動生涯中,因其卓越的球技而聞名,曾效力於美國國家橄欖球聯盟(NFL)的水牛城比爾和舊金山49人等球隊。

辛普森在職業足球生涯中取得巨大的成功,被譽為美式足球史上最偉大的跑鋒之一。在1973年獲得NFL最有價值球員(MVP)獎,並入選5次全明星賽。然而,職業生涯晚期的名聲受到影響,因為他於1994年涉嫌謀殺前妻妮可·布朗·辛普森(Nicole Brown Simpson)和她的男朋友羅恩·戈德曼(Ron Goldman)。

1994年6月12日晚,妮可·布朗·辛普森和羅恩·戈德曼在加利福尼亞州洛杉磯布倫特伍德地區被發現遇害。這起兇殺案迅速引起媒體的關注,因為妮可·布朗·辛普森曾是辛普森的前妻。警方很快把他列為嫌疑人。接下來的幾天,辛普森成為全美最為關注的人物之一,他在洛杉磯警局與警方進行一場長達五個小時的追逐。在追逐期間,他被指控謀殺並被裁定為通緝犯。這場追逐直播在全國電視轉播,成為美國罕見的電視史上大事件。

後來,他自願前往警局並被拘留。在1995年的一場著名的公開審判中被裁定無罪,但這場審判引起廣泛爭議。許多人認為證據不足,而其他人則認為這是一場受到種族和名望的影響的審判。儘管在刑事審判中被宣告無罪,但在民事訴訟中,他被判處支付大約3350萬美元的賠償金給妮可·布朗·辛普森和羅恩·戈德曼的家屬。這起兇殺案至今仍然是美國犯罪史上最具爭議性和廣為關注的案件之一。

根據加州法律,個人的退休金不受裁判賠償的影響。然而,O.J.辛普森晚年卻陷入多起訴訟之中,包括欠稅、毆打、強劫、綁架、謀殺、以及持有致命武器等罪名。2008年12月5日,他因涉及一起綁架和持槍搶劫案在拉斯維加斯法院被判處33年有期徒刑。直到2017年7月,他才獲得假釋出獄。

O.J. Simpson, Orenthal James Simpson born on July 9, 1947, is a renowned former professional American football player, actor, and television personality. Throughout his athletic career, he gained fame for his exceptional football skills, having played for teams like the Buffalo Bills and the San Francisco 49ers in the National Football League (NFL).

Simpson achieved tremendous success during his professional football career, being hailed as one of the greatest running backs in American football history. He was awarded the NFL Most Valuable Player (MVP) award in 1973 and was selected to five Pro Bowls. However, his later years in the spotlight were marred by controversy when he was accused of the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman, in 1994.

On the night of June 12, 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were found murdered in the Brentwood area of Los Angeles, California. The sensational nature of the murders stemmed from Nicole Brown Simpson's previous marriage to O.J. Simpson, leading authorities to quickly name him as a suspect. Over the following days, Simpson became one of the most scrutinized figures in America, engaging in a widely televised, five-hour pursuit with the Los Angeles Police Department. During the chase, he was charged with murder and became a fugitive. The pursuit was broadcast live nationwide and became a rare television event in American history.

Subsequently, Simpson voluntarily surrendered to authorities and was placed under arrest. He was famously acquitted in a highly publicized trial in 1995, which sparked widespread controversy. While many believed the evidence was insufficient, others argued that the trial was influenced by race and fame.

Although acquitted in the criminal trial, Simpson was found liable in a civil lawsuit and was ordered to pay approximately $33.5 million in damages to the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The murders remain one of the most controversial and widely discussed cases in American criminal history.

Under California law, personal retirement pensions are not subject to civil judgments. However, in his later years, O.J. Simpson faced multiple legal challenges, including allegations of tax evasion, assault, armed robbery, kidnapping, and possession of deadly weapons. On December 5, 2008, he was sentenced to 33 years in prison for his involvement in an armed robbery and kidnapping case in a Las Vegas court. It wasn't until July 2017 that he was granted parole and released from prison. It was reported on April 10, 2024, that he passed away due to cancer at the age of 76.
