O.J. Simpson's family announced his death at age 76 on April 11 after a private battle with cancer
Simpson died from prostate cancer, his attorney Malcolm Lavergne confirmed to TMZ on Friday, April 26. He died at the age of 76 on April 10 after spending several months in hospice.
Two months before his death, a local Las Vegas news outlet reported that Simpson was undergoing treatment for prostate cancer. He didn't address the diagnosis at the time but he did deny being placed in “hospice” care. Simpson discussed his plans to host 'a ton of friends for the Super Bowl” while in Las Vegas, adding, “All is well. Guys, take care, have a good Super Bowl weekend.”
O.J. was ultimately acquitted on the murder charges in 1995, but was later found guilty for wrongful death of and battery against Goldman in a civil suit filed by the late Goldman’s family.
