OJ Simpson ABC 20/20 Live Thread
abc 20/20 ^ | 9-25-2015

It has been 20 years since the O.J. Simpson murder trial, but Kris Jenner says she is still haunted by the red flags she said she missed at the end of Nicole Brown Simpson’s life.

The reality-TV star and businesswoman, 59, and her late ex-husband, Robert Kardashian, were close to O.J. Simpson, so much so that Simpson was even one of the groomsmen at their wedding in 1978.

But that relationship became strained after Ronald Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson, who had divorced the retired football star, were both found slain in Los Angeles June 12, 1994.

Though Simpson was eventually acquitted on criminal murder charges, Jenner said Nicole Brown Simpson had often predicted her own demise at the hands of the Hall of Famer.

Jenner’s interview reflecting on the tragic events two decades ago will be featured in a new LMN documentary called "The Secret Tapes of the O.J. Case: The Untold Story," which premieres Sept. 30 at 8 p.m. ET. The A&E documentary, “O.J. Speaks: The Hidden Tapes,” premieres Oct. 1 at 9 p.m. ET. (Both A&E and LMN are partly owned by ABC News' parent company, Disney.)

Watch the full story on ABC News’ “20/20” at 10 p.m. ET TONIGHT.

She’s the fairest of the 3 K sisters. She doesn’t resemble OJ in the least.

If anything, and I think it’s bogus, she’d resemble a person way lighter than Kris or Rob Kardashian. And a hell of lot lighter than OJ.

The “Khloe is adopted” story has been a storyline of KUWTK since the first season. JMO

Hopefully Simpson will croak in prison before finishing his term for the kidnapping/theft thing

Only problem is, he was the only one I saw who was saying he would try to find the murderer before they arrested him for theft. If he croaks how will we ever know for sure who killed her. After all, the glove didn't fit.

I took much interest in the Simpson trial and have always been troubled at the sight and testimony showing and allowing him to try the glove fitting wearing another glove. The trial was a farce.

Not to mention she is, like, 8 foot 4 and the other two troll sisters are like 4 foot 11.

I don't know if this is 100% true, but I know it's 100% funny!

Thanks Mr. B. I understand we all can and many times do have differing opinions. But it would be impossible for OJ to not have committed these murders. There is just no way all that evidence could exist w/o his involvement.

Bastard's where he belongs now though, huh? :-p

There was no doubt of his guilt in my mind from the ‘Slow Bronco Chase’ on. To bad he didn’t just off himself on live TV with his handgun right then. From a few things I have read, (if true), he is a notorious snitch in the can. He might not make it thru to the end of his sentence. Could be Shank City. Tough titty said the Kitty.

What about Simpson’s DNA all over the place?

The jury ignored it. "If the gloves don't fit you must acquit" (Simpson feigned not being able to put them on).

"Gloves that aren’t worn for a while shrink and get stiff. And he had latex gloves on his hands. Its no surprise they didn’t fit."

Hell I wear exam gloves every day, and THEY often don't even fit!

Now trying on a pair of leather gloves with OJ's blood soaked/dried into them and boy, you're going to have a problem getting them on.

I remember one person commenting at the time: " Its a GREAT example of why OJ is innocent. Everyone KNOWS that you need to be wearing perfectly fitting gloves when committing a murder!"

Simpson IMO didn’t do this. There was a show a while ago that showed Brown and Goldman was killed by a serial killer, who was hired by Simpson to steal some stuff. The robbery went bad, and Simpson clammed up so he wouldn’t get implicated.

Didn't do it? Simpson hired a serial killer to "steal some stuff" ... exactly how isn't Simpson responsbile, assuming that ridiculous scenario is true?

Assuming the above is true, he'd still be an accessory to murder.

He's in jail where he belongs for the Vegas b.s., he should've had a needle in his arm for killing Brown & Goldman. THAT's what he deserves.

Detective Philip Vannatter drew Simpson’s blood at the LAPD on June 13, the day after the killings. But instead of booking it into evidence, Vannatter put the blood vial in his pocket and went to Simpson’s home where criminalists were collecting evidence.”

He shouldn't have done that.

My oldest brother said then and still believes OJ is innocent. He wouldn't shut up about it after the acquittal, not understanding that an acquittal does not equate to innocence. This same brother believes Michelle Obama should be the first female president and his best friend is a guy named Jim.

Last name Beam.

“But that relationship became strained after Ronald Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson ... were both found slain in Los Angeles”

What, you mean like OJ felt dissed when they made him go through a metal detector before entering their house for barbeques and to watch football and stuff?

While OJ was clearly guilty based on a mountain of evidence, I’m not sure that that it was completely ruled out that there could also have been a little police misconduct with the evidence. For instance it certainly was lucky for the police that OJ dropped one glove at the murder scene and another at his house, Maybe OJ was dumb and/or clumsy enough to do this, but the police at least had an opportunity to arrange things this way as well.

I think OJ is guilty of the murder. But, had I been on the jury, on the basis of the evidence I saw on TV, I would have voted not to convict. The evidence just wasn’t there.

What I don’t understand and never did is why there wasn’t more blood inside and outside the Bronco. Murders as gruesome as those were would surely equate a lot more blood droppings. I don’t remember if there was blood on the pedals of the Bronco either, but, he could have removed his shoes and disposed of them. It was all just so gruesome.

To believe the police planted those gloves requires that you believe the police (who were friendly with OJ) after having discovered the dead bodies, planted the gloves both at the scene and at his home and were just “lucky” to have later found a receipt showing his wife had bought him those very gloves.

Obviously OJ bought the gloves and used them at the murder scene. Obviously OJ left at least one glove at the murder scene. The question is whether someone other than OJ could have moved the other glove from the murder scene to OJ's house.

Since the person who "found" the glove at OJ's house ended up with a perjury conviction, it is reasonable to at least question his credibility.
