O.J. Simpson, perhaps the most infamous celebrity of his time, died of cancer on Wednesday. He was 76 years old.

Those raised on the internet may not have a full awareness of Simpson and the murder trial that captivated the world in the mid-1990s. Simpson was accused of the 1994 killing of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and friend Ron Goldman. To those watching at home, the trial felt like the biggest event in the world, full stop. Simpson was eventually acquitted, though most people didn't believe he was innocent, and was later found liable in a civil trial.
