The former NFL running back turned actor, who was acquitted of murder in a trial in the mid-1990s, had been suffering from cancer.
Simpson was a running back for the Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers from 1969 to 1979, before being acquitted of murder in a trial in the mid-1990s.Advertisement “On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer,” read a statement.
Simpson became one of the most notorious figures in American history when he was charged with the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994.
