Synopsis | American Villain (2016)
As a footballer, there was none better than OJ Simpson. As a human, there aren't too many worse. It's been decades since Simpson was famously charged with murdering his former wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman. The court case, an eight-month spectacle fuelled by the public's obsession with celebrity, ended with the jury's surprising 'not guilty' verdict. But two years later, a civil court decided Simpson was liable for the deaths, and ordered him to pay more than $30 million in compensation. In 2008, OJ Simpson was jailed for 33 years after a botched armed robbery in Las Vegas. The one-time American hero was likely to be paroled, which meant more torment for the victims' families.
