The documentary The Life & Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson, released almost 30 years after Nicole’s death, brought some shocking revelations about O.J. Simpson’s relationship with his ex-wife.

Released last weekend, the documentary features previously unseen statements from Nicole’s sisters Denise, Dominique, and Tanya, and even businesswoman Kris Jenner, matriarch of the Kardashian-Jenner clan and a close friend of Nicole.
“One of my best memories of Nicole was when she would climb up on the roof at Christmastime and do all of her own Christmas lights. And that would always surprise me, and of course, I would rush home and try to do my own Christmas lights,” Jenner recounted.
Nicole was 35 when she was stabbed to death outside her Los Angeles home on June 12, 1994, along with her friend Ron Goldman. Although O.J. Simpson, who died in April this year, was acquitted of the murders, the documentary makes it clear that his hands were not clean.
Born in Frankfurt, Germany, Nicole grew up in California and met O.J. when she was just 18. In 1977, she was working as a waitress at a restaurant in Beverly Hills. According to her friend David LeBon, O.J. would come to the restaurant to see her and was “obsessed” with her.
The two went on a date, but Nicole returned with a broken zipper on her pants, according to LeBon’s ex-wife, D’Anne Purcilly. LeBon remembers Nicole, who lived with him at the time, telling him that O.J. got “a little energetic.”
After they started dating, Purcilly reported the threats O.J. made when he and Nicole argued. “I’ll cut you into pieces and bury you on Mulholland Drive, and no one will know where you are, not even your kids,” O.J. is said to have told Nicole.
Nicole documented many instances of O.J.’s violent behavior in her personal diary, where she even accused him of infidelity. In the entries, she also recounted the various occasions when O.J. left her bruised.
Denise, who witnessed the abuse her sister endured, was particularly concerned when, after seven years of a relationship, she announced she intended to marry O.J. “Everything will change. He will become a new person,” Denise recalls Nicole saying.
Courtroom footage shows detective John Edwards testifying that he received a call from Nicole on New Year’s Eve in 1989. “She collapsed and started screaming: ‘He’s going to kill me. He’s going to kill me,'” Edwards revealed. “She had a handprint on the left side of her throat.”
The two separated in October 1992, but retired officer Spencer Marks responded to an incident at Nicole’s house in 1993. “She said: ‘I’m sure one day he will kill me,'” he recalled.
