I believe that OJ Simpson is not responsible for the deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ronald Goldman, and instead his son, Jason Simpson, was the culprit. While I do not believe OJ to be the perpetrator, I have hypothesized that he was still at the scene of the crime, however, he was not present until after the acts were committed. If there is any conceivable explanation for OJ’s abnormal behavior after the murders, other than that he killed the two victims, it is that he knew that his son had killed Nicole Brown Simpson and wanted to protect him. Jason, who was 24 at the time of the murders, most likely committed the acts in a rage killing.
