• 83 - Murder in Brentwood: The Murders, The Trial and the Jury's Walk Through of OJ Simpson's Homes (Pt. 2)

  On a quiet street in Brentwood, California, nestled among palm trees and million-dollar homes, sits a nondescript townhouse that became ground zero for one of the most infamous crimes in American history.In June of 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman were found brutally murdered just outside her front door — a crime that sparked a media frenzy, divided the country, and changed the way we talk about fame, race, and justice.At the center of it all was her ex-husband — football legend, actor, and celebrity icon O.J. Simpson. Acquitted in criminal court, found liable in civil court, and forever tied to the shadow of what happened that night.But what happened after the trial — to the crime scene, to O.J.’s lavish Brentwood mansion, and to the people left in the wake? Today, we're not just revisiting the murder — we’re tracing the strange real estate trail left behind, and how even bricks and addresses couldn’t escape the gravity of the case. Listen as we discuss the stories behind the crime, and the places they left behind.The Real Estate: 875 S. Bundy Drive (Nicole) & 360 N.
