The notorious murder suspect O.J. Simpson died at the age of 76 following a brief struggle with prostate cancer. At his Las Vegas home, he passed away surrounded by his loved ones.
Once a renowned football running back and then an actor, Simpson rose to national notoriety when he was accused of killing his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994. Despite being exonerated of the criminal charges, he was held legally responsible for their deaths and had to reimburse the relatives of the victims $33.5 million in damages.
Following the trial, Simpson’s life took a dark turn, leaving his reputation irreparably damaged and soiled by dubious endeavors in his later career. He encountered additional legal issues in 2008 after receiving a nine to thirty-three year prison sentence for armed robbery in Nevada.
In spite of the scandals that surrounded him, Simpson’s death provides an opportunity to consider a problematic legacy. His family requested privacy and grace at this time of change in an official statement that was posted on his social media accounts. Simpson’s children and grandchildren, who were present in his last moments, survive him.
Let’s acknowledge the influence O.J. Simpson’s narrative has on our society as we honor him. Many saw him as an incredible example of someone falling from grace and how one mistake may permanently alter one’s life path. I hope that his dying will serve as a reminder of the complexity of life and the results of our choices.
My family is going back and forth on what the name this stuff was! I had it in the 90s early 00’s. What’s the name ?
Answer: It is rubber cement. Even though the superior Elmer’s glue had been alive and well since the 50’s, this bottle that looked like a magical elixir crafted by an alchemist centuries ago, was in every one of my classrooms in the 80’s. And for some reason back then they thought making glue look like delicious pancake syrup was a good idea. Luckily just one whiff of this stuff and you’ll know right away that this will not have the sweet taste of Mrs.Butterworth.
