“ O.J. had reportedly been battling prostate cancer in recent years, and his health took a turn for the worse of late — with him landing in hospice care within the past few months.”

Did he ever find the person(s) responsible for his wife’s murder and that of her boyfriend? If not, who did he leave in charge of that search and investigation? ;)

Al Michaels talked about that call, and said the whole time he was laughing so hard, and debating whether or not he should clue Peter Jennings in on it.
