- 0:00Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace.
- 0:06Speaker 2: He says double killer OJ Simpson spied on him during
- 0:12Speaker 2: his sofa sex session with O. J. Simpson's wife, Nicole Brown. Well,
- 0:18Speaker 2: that's just the tip of the iceberg. This guy has
- 0:22Speaker 2: a brand new book, and he's right when he says
- 0:25Speaker 2: that could have been me.
- 0:27Speaker 1: I mean, is he Grace? This is Crime Stories.
- 0:29Speaker 2: I want to thank you for being with us here.
- 0:33Speaker 2: Can you send some one to my house or my
- 0:35Speaker 2: ex husband or my husband?
- 0:36Speaker 3: He broke into my house and he's ranting and raving.
- 0:39Speaker 3: Now he's just walked out the front yard and.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Nobody's crazy.
- 0:45Speaker 2: You know what always strikes me about that portion of
- 0:47Speaker 2: one of Nicole Brown's many, many nine one one calls
- 0:52Speaker 2: is that she was just like, yeah, he's breaking into
- 0:55Speaker 2: my house again. By this time, it had happened so
- 0:59Speaker 2: many times, and she had been beaten so many times.
- 1:03Speaker 1: That photo that was put up in the courtroom during
- 1:07Speaker 1: Simpson's murder.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Trial of her with her face just totally beaten and bruised.
- 1:14Speaker 2: I mean, how that jury, Oh gosh, that's one of them.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Look at her arm for Pete's sake. Oh gosh.
- 1:23Speaker 2: It happened over and over and over, joining me right now.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Two incredible guests.
- 1:31Speaker 2: First, I want to introduce to you Keith Zulomsowitch. He
- 1:37Speaker 2: is Nicole Brown's former boyfriend, and he is the author
- 1:41Speaker 2: of a brand new book, Stalked, And I've got it
- 1:44Speaker 2: right now, but I really think we should give the
- 1:46Speaker 2: whole title it stalked. It could have been me, And
- 1:51Speaker 2: I think what you mean by that, Keith, is that
- 1:56Speaker 2: you could have been the one lying out in the
- 1:59Speaker 2: driveway that night with your head nearly severed off your body.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Nicole Brown's head was attached to her body by a
- 2:11Speaker 2: thin a thin bit of flesh in the back of
- 2:17Speaker 2: her neck. She had been almost totally decapitated. The killer
- 2:23Speaker 2: had that immense strength. I wonder what he would have
- 2:27Speaker 2: done with you if he had gotten a hold of you, Keith,
- 2:30Speaker 2: knowing that you had been dating Nicole, actually spying.
- 2:34Speaker 1: On you through the window. Freak.
- 2:39Speaker 4: Freak is right, And you're absolutely right when you say that.
- 2:44Speaker 4: In real time, maybe it didn't cross my mind as much,
- 2:47Speaker 4: But after I saw what he was capable of in
- 2:49Speaker 4: the murders I've had to live with for thirty years,
- 2:52Speaker 4: I think that it could have.
- 2:53Speaker 2: Been merry shots Nicole in life. Some of the happiest
- 2:59Speaker 2: time of her life outside of being a mom, were
- 3:06Speaker 2: with Keith Zulamsowitch. It's not just what he's saying, it's
- 3:11Speaker 2: what other people said. Of course, their relationship was marred,
- 3:16Speaker 2: ruined by this.
- 3:20Speaker 5: It's three o'clock in the morning and Keith and Nicole
- 3:23Speaker 5: made love on the couch, but they weren't alone. There
- 3:30Speaker 5: was somebody watching. There was someone watching through the window.
- 3:39Speaker 5: It was a defendant.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Nicole hires a babysitter to watch the children while she
- 3:44Speaker 3: and Keith go out to a comedy club. Arriving home,
- 3:47Speaker 3: the children are asleep. It's about three am when Keith
- 3:49Speaker 3: and Nicole become amorous on the couch. Unbeknownst to either
- 3:53Speaker 3: of them, OJ Simpson is hiding in the bushes outside
- 3:56Speaker 3: the house, stalking, watching the couple love on the couch.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Did you have any idea that OJ Simpson was staring?
- 4:06Speaker 1: He's about three feet away from you.
- 4:08Speaker 2: It sounds like addy threesome watching you have sex with
- 4:13Speaker 2: Nicole Brown with his shoulder asleep upstairs. I mean, did
- 4:16Speaker 2: you have any idea the extent to which he was
- 4:21Speaker 2: stalking you and her?
- 4:25Speaker 4: We knew about the stalking because it had happened several
- 4:27Speaker 4: times prior to this particular incident, but that evening we
- 4:32Speaker 4: were out several places before we went home, one of
- 4:35Speaker 4: which was Roxbury where Nicole saw Oj across the dance
- 4:39Speaker 4: floor and brought it to my attention immediately that he
- 4:42Speaker 4: was there, and we just sort of at that point
- 4:45Speaker 4: had had enough of his stalking and following us. So
- 4:49Speaker 4: she looked at me and she said, what do you
- 4:51Speaker 4: want to do. Let's just get out of here. So
- 4:53Speaker 4: we headed back to the house, not knowing he was
- 4:55Speaker 4: going to follow us. In hindsight, maybe should have had
- 4:57Speaker 4: an idea that that was going to happen. But you know,
- 5:01Speaker 4: we got home and we were in the house thinking
- 5:03Speaker 4: we were alone, and things happened. That was the first
- 5:05Speaker 4: time we made love, so it was a special It
- 5:08Speaker 4: was very special. Come to find out.
- 5:12Speaker 1: You know, I need a strength and I named one
- 5:14Speaker 1: really quickly.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Doctor Bethany Marshall is joining us renowned psychoanalyst.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Out of la this jurisdiction, author of deal Breaker.
- 5:24Speaker 2: You can see her now on Peacock and you can
- 5:26Speaker 2: find her at doctor Bethany Marshall dot com. Doctor Bethany Marshall,
- 5:30Speaker 2: I'm just a trial lawyer, you're the shrink. But this,
- 5:34Speaker 2: there's got to be a name for this, for what
- 5:37Speaker 2: Simpson did before the double murders.
- 5:42Speaker 6: Yes, well, obviously it's voyeurism, but Nancy, it is stalking,
- 5:47Speaker 6: like the title of Keith's book, and the psychology of
- 5:50Speaker 6: stalking is that the perpetrator, the stalker, lives in a
- 5:55Speaker 6: state of rejection all the time, even when that other person,
- 5:59Speaker 6: maybe in a wouldn't pick up a phone call or
- 6:01Speaker 6: wouldn't spend time with him, and everything got interpreted as rejections.
- 6:06Speaker 6: So he stalked her to punish her for rejecting him.
- 6:10Speaker 6: He also believed that she belonged to him like property.
- 6:14Speaker 6: So I imagine when he's standing outside the window watching them
- 6:18Speaker 6: have sex, take each other's clothes off, make out. I mean,
- 6:21Speaker 6: I'm imagining the whole thing, with his face pressed up
- 6:25Speaker 6: against the mirror. Nancy, he was probably enraged and even
- 6:30Speaker 6: at that point, possibly having homicidal fantasies. I'm not surprised
- 6:34Speaker 6: that Keith waited so long to come out with this
- 6:37Speaker 6: book because OJ Simpson is gone now. He can't do
- 6:40Speaker 6: anything from the grapes, so it's a safe time to
- 6:43Speaker 6: talk about it and It's a very important message this book.
- 6:46Speaker 6: I think it's so wonderful Keith that you wrote it
- 6:48Speaker 6: and that people can read it about it.
- 6:49Speaker 2: I forget what you just said, doctor Bethany, Because Simpson,
- 6:52Speaker 2: even during his marriage was women threw themselves at him.
- 6:57Speaker 1: How can you say OJ Simpson was in his state
- 7:00Speaker 1: of rejection. The world loved him. He was an icon.
- 7:05Speaker 1: Don't you remember those I believe it was.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Was it Avas or hurt I think it was AVOs
- 7:10Speaker 2: rental cars where he would be running through the airport
- 7:13Speaker 2: and jumping over things, is very athletic, carrying like a
- 7:17Speaker 2: bag with him or something.
- 7:19Speaker 1: He was a star.
- 7:20Speaker 2: He was in movies, he was in commercials. Everybody loved him.
- 7:25Speaker 1: What do you mean a state of rejection but no dancy.
- 7:30Speaker 6: This is what we see Bucker's and I believe was
- 7:33Speaker 6: going on psychologically for Oj is that he probably had
- 7:37Speaker 6: sexual relationships with other women, responded to women, flirted with women.
- 7:42Speaker 6: But at the same time he was obsessed and preoccupied
- 7:47Speaker 6: with Nicole. He only wanted her. And so we see
- 7:51Speaker 6: with these guys often they're pathologically jealous. They feel betrayed
- 7:56Speaker 6: all the time, even if the girl, the woman goes
- 7:59Speaker 6: out having lunch with her friends or something like that.
- 8:02Speaker 6: He would feel betrayed and rejected and then to get
- 8:05Speaker 6: back at her, go have sex with other women. That's
- 8:08Speaker 6: a really common thing for sociopaths, and he seems to just.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Don't get it.
- 8:12Speaker 2: Let me go back to Keith Zlamzowitch, the author of
- 8:16Speaker 2: a brand new book Climbing the Charts on Amazon, stalked,
- 8:21Speaker 2: but I like the rest of the title because it
- 8:23Speaker 2: says so much more it could have been me. And
- 8:26Speaker 2: he's right because in a blind rage, Simpson not only
- 8:31Speaker 2: murdered decapitated his wife Nicole, but a completely innocent guy
- 8:36Speaker 2: that had returned a pair of glasses to her home
- 8:39Speaker 2: that night.
- 8:40Speaker 1: You know, there he is Ron Goleman. And what a.
- 8:45Speaker 2: Horrific phone call had to be made to Golman's family
- 8:49Speaker 2: to tell them, just out of the blue, their boy
- 8:53Speaker 2: is dead, murdered.
- 8:55Speaker 1: They probably first thought, oh, it must have been a
- 8:57Speaker 1: car crash.
- 8:58Speaker 2: No, no, then they find out the awful truth.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Guys, the stalking just so bizarre.
- 9:07Speaker 2: But that night, the first time that Keith had sex
- 9:11Speaker 2: with Nicole Brown they had been dating a while. He
- 9:15Speaker 2: had no idea oj Simpson was peeking peeping tom through
- 9:21Speaker 2: the window just a few feet away, staring at them
- 9:25Speaker 2: the whole time. I'm really surprised he didn't break down
- 9:28Speaker 2: the window and come in and strangle you right then
- 9:31Speaker 2: and there. When did you find out he had been
- 9:34Speaker 2: spying on you that whole night?
- 9:38Speaker 4: The very next day, OJ burst into us. We were
- 9:42Speaker 4: in the back bedroom of one of Nicole of Nicholl's house,
- 9:44Speaker 4: in one of the bedrooms, and he came bursting in
- 9:48Speaker 4: right on top of us and started declaring that he
- 9:51Speaker 4: had watched us the night before, and he wanted to
- 9:53Speaker 4: be left alone with Nicole. I wanted. I didn't want
- 9:57Speaker 4: to leave her alone. I was scared for her safety.
- 9:59Speaker 4: So I stood my ground, stood in between the two
- 10:01Speaker 4: of them, and refused to leave. He was getting angrier
- 10:04Speaker 4: and angrier, until finally Nicole realized the only way to
- 10:07Speaker 4: get him out of there was to have me wait
- 10:10Speaker 4: outside the bedroom door, so I did. She asked me
- 10:13Speaker 4: to stay close enough so I could hear if anything happened,
- 10:16Speaker 4: which I did, and then he continued to go after
- 10:20Speaker 4: her and read her the Riot Act.
- 10:21Speaker 1: What was he saying to you or let me guess,
- 10:23Speaker 1: bitch or blah.
- 10:24Speaker 4: Blah, Oh, how filthy she was, how disgrace she is.
- 10:31Speaker 4: I watched you. I saw everything you did. You know
- 10:36Speaker 4: it was as bad. I couldn't hear every word he
- 10:38Speaker 4: was saying. But when she came out of the bedroom,
- 10:40Speaker 4: when they came out together after about ten minutes, and
- 10:43Speaker 4: he tried the old shake my hand thing, you know
- 10:46Speaker 4: that wasn't wasn't.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Oh okay, and he stretches out. He breaks in.
- 10:54Speaker 2: He bursts into the bedroom when you were in a color,
- 10:57Speaker 2: still in there, I think you said, still in bed?
- 11:00Speaker 1: Me woke you up, and starts harassing Well what now?
- 11:03Speaker 4: I was giving her a I was giving her a
- 11:06Speaker 4: back massage, non sexual, and he came in through the
- 11:10Speaker 4: back door, which also told us that he knew exactly
- 11:14Speaker 4: where we at. We were at in the house. He
- 11:16Speaker 4: didn't try to come through the front door, he didn't
- 11:17Speaker 4: come through the screen door in the back. He came
- 11:19Speaker 4: right through the bedroom French doors that we were in,
- 11:22Speaker 4: so he knew where we were at in the house,
- 11:25Speaker 4: and he came right through, stood right in my face
- 11:28Speaker 4: as I'm looking up from sitting on Nicole's back. I
- 11:31Speaker 4: was obviously mortified. I didn't know what to do. I
- 11:34Speaker 4: got up slowly, and then he started in on both
- 11:37Speaker 4: of us and wanted to be left alone with Nicole.
- 11:39Speaker 4: So he repeatedly said, I want to talk to you alone.
- 11:42Speaker 4: I want to talk to you alone. And I said,
- 11:44Speaker 4: I'm not going to leave you alone with her. I
- 11:45Speaker 4: don't trust you. Until eventually Nicole convinced me to go outside.
- 11:49Speaker 4: I stood outside in the kitchen close enough that I
- 11:52Speaker 4: could hear if something was going to go down, but
- 11:55Speaker 4: I couldn't hear every word they were saying. Five ten
- 11:57Speaker 4: minutes later, when they came out of the together, he
- 12:00Speaker 4: approached me in the kitchen and gave me this half
- 12:03Speaker 4: hearted sort of shook my hand. I'm a proud man,
- 12:07Speaker 4: was his statement. I didn't reply. I just sort of
- 12:10Speaker 4: stuck my hand out, and then he disappeared to.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Say, she's a proud man, A proud man that hunkered
- 12:17Speaker 2: down behind a bush the whole night to see.
- 12:19Speaker 1: What you were doing with the wife that he had
- 12:22Speaker 1: broken up with him over the beatings, That proud man.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Can you just see him squatted down behind the bush.
- 12:28Speaker 2: It's probably the hides the kite, and we.
- 12:33Speaker 4: Know it's my opinion that he tried to enter the
- 12:37Speaker 4: house that night, whether through the front door, whether through
- 12:40Speaker 4: the back door, but I'm convinced one percent that he
- 12:43Speaker 4: didn't just watch us through the window and walk away
- 12:46Speaker 4: and go home. I'm convinced he tried to get into
- 12:49Speaker 4: the house. We didn't hear him. We had some music
- 12:51Speaker 4: on and we were involved, obviously, but you know, to
- 12:56Speaker 4: find out the next day how personal that was. And
- 12:58Speaker 4: when Nicole came out of the bedroom behind him and
- 13:01Speaker 4: he shook my hand and left, she was mortified. You
- 13:04Speaker 4: could see it. She was white as a ghost, and
- 13:07Speaker 4: she just looked me in the eye and said, he
- 13:09Speaker 4: watched us. Oh my god, he watched everything we did
- 13:12Speaker 4: last night. And then we just looked at each other
- 13:16Speaker 4: and went, oh my god, what's safe. We didn't know
- 13:19Speaker 4: what was SKay.
- 13:20Speaker 2: You do know he probably camped outside her house the
- 13:23Speaker 2: entire night.
- 13:24Speaker 1: There's no way Simpson goes home and comes back. No, no, no,
- 13:29Speaker 1: And this is why the children were home asleep upstairs.
- 13:36Speaker 4: Yes, correct. And the eerie part of that whole thing
- 13:38Speaker 4: is Nancy. And it goes back to the title of
- 13:41Speaker 4: the book. Is you have to draw a direct correlation
- 13:45Speaker 4: between that evening and the evening of the murders in
- 13:48Speaker 4: June twelfth and ninety four, because the geography is so
- 13:51Speaker 4: eerily similar, and you read about it in the book
- 13:55Speaker 4: where I describe how I left about maybe four or
- 13:59Speaker 4: fourth in the morning because I would never stay the
- 14:02Speaker 4: night at Nichole's house because we were leary of the
- 14:05Speaker 4: children waking up and finding another man in the house.
- 14:07Speaker 4: That was just how we thought about it. So I
- 14:09Speaker 4: left very early in the morning, and it was dead
- 14:12Speaker 4: silent in Brettwood. I just remember that it was spooky
- 14:16Speaker 4: silent as I walked out of the house to my car,
- 14:18Speaker 4: which was parked on the street, so I was accessible,
- 14:23Speaker 4: so I know he wasn't there. Then he must have
- 14:25Speaker 4: gone home at some point. But if you look at
- 14:27Speaker 4: the geography of how there's a long courtyard and a
- 14:31Speaker 4: gate and another sidewalk that leads to the living room window,
- 14:34Speaker 4: it's exactly what he did on June twelfth. He came
- 14:37Speaker 4: through a gate, down along sidewalk around a corner through
- 14:41Speaker 4: her front window where she had to come out the
- 14:43Speaker 4: front door where he eventually murdered her and Ron. So
- 14:46Speaker 4: there's a direct correlation if you look at it, and
- 14:49Speaker 4: I write about it, to both those evenings, and that's
- 14:52Speaker 4: what sparked in my mind the whole. It could have
- 14:56Speaker 4: been me part of it, because I felt like had
- 14:59Speaker 4: he been there that night, it would have been me.
- 15:02Speaker 4: Or if he could have gotten into the house that
- 15:04Speaker 4: evening through an unlocked boarder, which none of them were,
- 15:07Speaker 4: that it could have happened right there in the living room.
- 15:09Speaker 4: So I've had ninemars about that for in the last
- 15:11Speaker 4: thirty years, and something that was an overbearing say.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Such a Bethey Marshall, what does that mean. I mean,
- 15:18Speaker 2: It's one thing to have an argument with your ex.
- 15:22Speaker 2: I would expect that, especially when you've got children together,
- 15:26Speaker 2: but to call your ex a whoror a bitch and
- 15:31Speaker 2: everything else that he called her, told her he was
- 15:33Speaker 2: trash and filthy and dirty and had shamed him. Really
- 15:40Speaker 2: with the children, you know, they could hear me. He
- 15:42Speaker 2: was screaming like a crazy man.
- 15:47Speaker 6: Nancy is part of the pattern of abuse right devalue
- 15:50Speaker 6: the woman, shame her for her sexuality, humiliate her, embarrass her,
- 15:56Speaker 6: try to take down her credibility in front of the children.
- 15:59Speaker 6: These are classic abuse signs. Also trying to isolate the
- 16:03Speaker 6: victim from sources of support. So here she starts dating Keith.
- 16:08Speaker 6: They're having this romantic evening, he bursts through the bedroom
- 16:12Speaker 6: because what he's trying to do is assert dominance over
- 16:16Speaker 6: Nicole and over Keith, and he thinks that by separating them,
- 16:21Speaker 6: he's going to be able to separate them permanently. Now
- 16:23Speaker 6: that really odd thing where he says, I'm a proud man.
- 16:27Speaker 6: He turns reality on its head. He's actually humiliating himself
- 16:32Speaker 6: as well as her. And then when he shakes hands
- 16:35Speaker 6: with Keith, that's I think another dominance moves. He thinks
- 16:39Speaker 6: that he's he's been successful in separating the two, getting
- 16:43Speaker 6: them into different rooms, shakes hands and leaves, and I
- 16:46Speaker 6: think he feels like he got his way.
- 16:48Speaker 1: And what he won? What do you mean he won.
- 16:53Speaker 7: That?
- 16:53Speaker 1: He won that.
- 16:54Speaker 6: He has now taken Nicole apart, psychologically abused her, beat
- 16:59Speaker 6: her down emotionally, and now she will come back and
- 17:03Speaker 6: depend on him instead of continuing to date Keith. He
- 17:06Speaker 6: probably thought that.
- 17:08Speaker 2: So basically, he's like a dog that comes in and
- 17:10Speaker 2: TETs on everything that he thinks is his.
- 17:14Speaker 6: Exactly that's exactly what he did. That's how he asserted
- 17:18Speaker 6: the dominant. He lifted his leg and then he was
- 17:20Speaker 6: happy and he left because her house was his Territory. Nancy.
- 17:25Speaker 6: I used to live in Brentwood between Nicole was just
- 17:29Speaker 6: to the south of me and O. J. Simpson on
- 17:31Speaker 6: Rockingham was just to the north. So I know that
- 17:34Speaker 6: area very very well. It is super quiet at four
- 17:38Speaker 6: in the morning. Brentwood is such kind of like a
- 17:41Speaker 6: sleepy community, but it's a very wealthy enclave. So her
- 17:47Speaker 6: house where it was located, it was almost like walking
- 17:51Speaker 6: distance between the house and Metsaluna where Rob where Ron
- 17:55Speaker 6: Goldman worked, and so it was it was a place
- 17:58Speaker 6: where there was a lot of visits ability. She and
- 18:01Speaker 6: I went to the same hair salon and the same
- 18:03Speaker 6: nail salon, and the girls in there will talk about
- 18:05Speaker 6: the fact that she would come in with bruises on
- 18:08Speaker 6: her face and on her arms. She lived her life
- 18:11Speaker 6: being stalked and being beaten.
- 18:13Speaker 1: That that was just her life. Very disturbing.
- 18:17Speaker 2: And even though I prosecuted, by the time I got
- 18:22Speaker 2: domestic violence cases as they are called euphemistically, somebody was
- 18:26Speaker 2: dead or had had an aggravated assault or aggravated battery
- 18:30Speaker 2: like lost.
- 18:31Speaker 1: An eye, lost use of an arm, lost use of
- 18:34Speaker 1: a limb.
- 18:35Speaker 2: But when I worked at the Battered Women's Center as
- 18:38Speaker 2: a volunteer at night.
- 18:39Speaker 1: That was for nine years.
- 18:41Speaker 2: And to hear these women because again by the time
- 18:44Speaker 2: I usually got their cases, they were dead and I
- 18:47Speaker 2: never got to speak to them. But as working the hotline,
- 18:50Speaker 2: I did speak to them and they would be just
- 18:52Speaker 2: totally numb.
- 18:53Speaker 1: It would be just a way of life for them.
- 18:55Speaker 1: You know, that's curious.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Back to you, Keith Zlamzowitch new book stalked it could
- 19:02Speaker 2: have been me. It's interesting the way you described and
- 19:07Speaker 2: I didn't want to interrupt you when you first said
- 19:09Speaker 2: it that you guys were at the Roxbury and you
- 19:11Speaker 2: were having a great time.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Everybody's dancing. Look there's Simpson. Oh what a coinciding there
- 19:15Speaker 1: he is. He's probably been following you the whole night.
- 19:19Speaker 1: And she was like, there he is. See I would
- 19:21Speaker 1: have been shot, like why is he or what? What?
- 19:24Speaker 2: But she it was just typical another day in Brentwood
- 19:29Speaker 2: for her. There's Ojay stalking her again, Simpson Orenthal, James
- 19:34Speaker 2: Simpson turning up again wherever she was.
- 19:37Speaker 1: It was just routine for her at that point. She
- 19:40Speaker 1: was numb to it.
- 19:41Speaker 2: I mean, by the way you described it, she wasn't
- 19:43Speaker 2: shocked or afraid.
- 19:45Speaker 1: There he is like a bad penny.
- 19:50Speaker 4: And we were getting used to it, to be honest
- 19:52Speaker 4: with you, because this was the third or fourth time
- 19:54Speaker 4: that he approached Does in public. And they had had
- 19:58Speaker 4: an agreement that if they both showed up at the
- 20:02Speaker 4: same place, the first one there was allowed to stay,
- 20:04Speaker 4: the second one there if they saw the other person
- 20:07Speaker 4: would leave. He never abided by that, obviously, but he
- 20:10Speaker 4: knew where we were going because the times that he
- 20:13Speaker 4: would show up would be just too uncanny. So we
- 20:16Speaker 4: knew that we were either being followed or were being
- 20:20Speaker 4: ratted out by someone as to where our destination would be.
- 20:24Speaker 4: So he knew exactly where to go, where to find us,
- 20:27Speaker 4: and that includes that night we had gone to a
- 20:29Speaker 4: comedy show first before we went to Roxbury to go dancing.
- 20:32Speaker 4: We get into Roxbury and there he is, We leave
- 20:35Speaker 4: Roxbury and what you do follows us home. So there
- 20:38Speaker 4: was a pattern.
- 20:39Speaker 1: This is about it. I mean they even had an
- 20:41Speaker 1: agreement in place.
- 20:42Speaker 2: Hey, when we both show up at the same place
- 20:46Speaker 2: at the same time, the one who got their first
- 20:48Speaker 2: gets to stay. So obviously this had happened so many
- 20:51Speaker 2: times they had to come up with some type of
- 20:53Speaker 2: an agreement A truce of sorts.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Crime stories with Nancy Grace.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Another thing that you just mentioned that you think other
- 21:13Speaker 2: people could have been riting you out. I started to say,
- 21:16Speaker 2: hold on, Slammy, wait a minute, don't make this a
- 21:19Speaker 2: big conspiracy that didn't happen. But you know, when it
- 21:23Speaker 2: comes to Simpson, he had so many followers and so
- 21:26Speaker 2: many hangers on and so many friends, it's entirely possible
- 21:32Speaker 2: that they would call me and go, hey, your wife's here,
- 21:35Speaker 2: although they were completely separated at that point.
- 21:39Speaker 1: Guys, it didn't end there. Listen.
- 21:45Speaker 3: Keith meets Nicole Aspen, Colorado. Zlimzowitch is director of operations
- 21:50Speaker 3: for Metsaluna Restaurant chains California locations and Aspen. Keith returns
- 21:54Speaker 3: to Los Angeles and he and Nicole begin dating. Keith
- 21:57Speaker 3: and Nicole constantly under attack as Simpson stocks and harrasses
- 22:01Speaker 3: the couple. During a dinner out in Metsalona and Brentwood,
- 22:05Speaker 3: Keith and Nicole mortified to see Simpson pull up in
- 22:08Speaker 3: front of the restaurant.
- 22:10Speaker 5: Nicole was there, Keith was there. The defendant suddenly showed up,
- 22:13Speaker 5: drove up in front of the restaurant, got out of
- 22:15Speaker 5: the car, walked up to the table where there was
- 22:17Speaker 5: seated and put his hands on and said, I'm O. J. Simpson,
- 22:20Speaker 5: and she's still my wife when she filed for divorce
- 22:22Speaker 5: and moved out of his house.
- 22:26Speaker 4: That was intimidate.
- 22:32Speaker 1: No one over here now and the three two, five,
- 22:34Speaker 1: GrITT and a green.
- 22:35Speaker 4: He's back, Timplon, I.
- 22:38Speaker 8: Think you know his records be over here, throwing him over.
- 22:44Speaker 1: What kind of cardie? He's in a white cronkle, always looking.
- 22:48Speaker 2: To her here.
- 22:51Speaker 1: The nine on one calls escalate, escalate, escalate.
- 22:54Speaker 2: Nothing was ever done, and now she's dead joining us
- 22:59Speaker 2: tonight a man that truly loved her and that she loved.
- 23:03Speaker 2: In return, Keith Slums, which new book stalked it could
- 23:08Speaker 2: have been me, and he's totally right.
- 23:11Speaker 1: I want to look very quickly at what we were
- 23:14Speaker 1: just viewing.
- 23:15Speaker 2: And that's Darden's argument to the jury because I want
- 23:18Speaker 2: to watch Simpson. This is Darden describing another incident where
- 23:23Speaker 2: Simpson shows up where Nicole and Keith are.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Let's watch.
- 23:30Speaker 4: That's a messalone.
- 23:34Speaker 5: Nicole was there, Keith was there. The defendant suddenly showed up,
- 23:37Speaker 5: drove up in front of the restaurant, got out of
- 23:39Speaker 5: the car, walked up to the table where there was
- 23:41Speaker 5: seated that put his hands on and said, I'm OJ Simpson,
- 23:44Speaker 5: and she's still my wife when she filed for divorce
- 23:46Speaker 5: and moved out of his house.
- 23:50Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to say. That's what I want
- 23:52Speaker 1: to see.
- 23:52Speaker 2: When Darden says she filed for divorce and moved out
- 23:54Speaker 2: of the house, He's like, did you see that? I mean?
- 23:59Speaker 2: And another thing I've noticed when I was watching him
- 24:02Speaker 2: during the trial and Keith, you were called as a
- 24:04Speaker 2: witness for both the state and the defense, so I'm
- 24:07Speaker 2: going to get into but I notice every time it
- 24:10Speaker 2: got sticky for Simpson, he would.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Like suddenly start writing notes. I would have loved to
- 24:15Speaker 1: see those notes. I did it come in get me.
- 24:18Speaker 1: But he would look away from the journey start writing notes.
- 24:21Speaker 2: So I would always know when I was watching the
- 24:23Speaker 2: trial at the time that whatever was happening that would
- 24:27Speaker 2: make Simpsons act like he was taking legal notes was
- 24:30Speaker 2: something that was damaging to the defense.
- 24:33Speaker 1: I want to move forward. Guys, listen to this.
- 24:37Speaker 3: After the incident at Metzaluna, when Keith refuses to back
- 24:40Speaker 3: down to Simpson, Nicole opens up and shares her life
- 24:44Speaker 3: of abuse with Simpson. As the couple continues to date,
- 24:48Speaker 3: Simpson stalks Keith and Nicole wherever they go, showing up
- 24:51Speaker 3: at every restaurant in the nightclub, hiding in bushes and
- 24:54Speaker 3: watching through windows, making it impossible for Nicole to have
- 24:58Speaker 3: a romantic relationships.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Keith Zlamzowitch, author of a brand new book, Stalked It
- 25:02Speaker 1: could have been me?
- 25:04Speaker 2: Keith, when did she first tell you that Simpson had
- 25:07Speaker 2: been beating her for years?
- 25:13Speaker 4: Very early on? Actually, when I got to Los Angeles
- 25:16Speaker 4: and we started the dating thing, we became and as
- 25:20Speaker 4: these incidents of stalking started to present themselves, we were
- 25:25Speaker 4: living it in real time, so we had this sort
- 25:29Speaker 4: of bond. She understood I was going through the same
- 25:32Speaker 4: thing she had gone through in the past, So she
- 25:34Speaker 4: started to tell me about certain incidents between them, beatings,
- 25:39Speaker 4: you know, control, all his possessiveness, personal stuff that I
- 25:44Speaker 4: think she felt at that time because we had a
- 25:47Speaker 4: bond from what we were going through together, so she
- 25:50Speaker 4: opened up about everything, and I think she opened up
- 25:53Speaker 4: more to me than she did to a lot of people,
- 25:55Speaker 4: maybe even some of her family. You know, she wasn't
- 25:58Speaker 4: very proud of of some of the stuff that had
- 26:02Speaker 4: happened to her in the past. So some of the
- 26:03Speaker 4: stuff she kept inside she shared with me because we
- 26:07Speaker 4: were living it in real time. She also was visiting
- 26:10Speaker 4: a psychologist at the time. We used to almost laugh
- 26:12Speaker 4: about it because the psychologist gave her a book entitled
- 26:16Speaker 4: something to the effect Women Who Love Men who Hate Them.
- 26:20Speaker 4: And I remember she used to have that book at
- 26:22Speaker 4: the house and she'd read from it and talk to
- 26:24Speaker 4: me about it a little bit, and she was trying
- 26:26Speaker 4: to figure out what it was that kept her with
- 26:30Speaker 4: him all those years.
- 26:31Speaker 2: At the hands of it did that Nicole Brown was
- 26:34Speaker 2: not proud of things that had happened to her.
- 26:39Speaker 7: Like what.
- 26:43Speaker 4: Like beatings. I described some of them in the book.
- 26:46Speaker 4: There are times when they'd be on a trip together,
- 26:49Speaker 4: a business trip, and he'd leave the room and he'd
- 26:51Speaker 4: come back and she'd know that he was with another woman,
- 26:53Speaker 4: and she would confront him and she'd be beaten and
- 26:56Speaker 4: locked in a closet. That happened more than once, and
- 27:01Speaker 4: she told me about those. So obviously she wasn't very
- 27:04Speaker 4: proud that she was still around after some of those incidents.
- 27:08Speaker 4: But it was her family, it was the children, it
- 27:11Speaker 4: was the thought of having that family unit together that
- 27:15Speaker 4: kept her around all those years and ultimately led to
- 27:17Speaker 4: the reconciliation. The failed reconciliation that cost her her life.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Leads me to another ship got back with. Did her
- 27:25Speaker 1: family encourage her to stay with Simpson.
- 27:31Speaker 4: No, I don't believe that. I know that they liked OJ. Initially.
- 27:37Speaker 4: OJ was very charming. There were two Ojs and this
- 27:40Speaker 4: is something she told me directly. There's two OJ Simpson's Keith.
- 27:44Speaker 4: There's the public one that everybody sees, and there's a
- 27:47Speaker 4: private one that only I see. And you don't never
- 27:50Speaker 4: want to be left alone with the private one because
- 27:52Speaker 4: you don't know what he's capable of. I mean, we
- 27:54Speaker 4: had that conversation. So I think the family thought OJ
- 28:00Speaker 4: was a nicer guy than he really was. I mean,
- 28:03Speaker 4: they were aware a few incidents. Obviously, Denise testified to
- 28:06Speaker 4: several domestic violence incidents that Nicole told her about. But
- 28:11Speaker 4: I can't get in the middle of the family dynamic
- 28:13Speaker 4: and tell you exactly what they were thinking. But I
- 28:16Speaker 4: know Denise, you know, was witnessed to from Nicole telling
- 28:20Speaker 4: her several incidents.
- 28:21Speaker 1: Did they take money from Simpson her family?
- 28:28Speaker 4: I don't know that they took money. I know that
- 28:31Speaker 4: it's widely reported that they helped Nicole's father with I
- 28:36Speaker 4: believe it was a hurtz rent a car franchise that
- 28:40Speaker 4: you know, he ultimately made some money. What from so
- 28:43Speaker 4: I think that happened. I never heard anything like he
- 28:47Speaker 4: you know, provided them with cash for a house or
- 28:49Speaker 4: anything like that. And I don't think that was the case.
- 28:51Speaker 4: I mean, lou and Judy were salt of the earth
- 28:55Speaker 4: people they met well.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, I think they stood.
- 28:59Speaker 2: For the door that people make those claims against her
- 29:03Speaker 2: family to somehow, I mean I see it all the time.
- 29:07Speaker 1: Somehow blame the victims. It's their fault.
- 29:11Speaker 2: They were leeches, they took money, they encouraged it, and ooh, he.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Lost his temper and killed her.
- 29:17Speaker 2: It's just total crap, Doctor Bethany Marshall, this brings up
- 29:21Speaker 2: another issue, if you could touch on it very quickly.
- 29:25Speaker 1: Why is it the woman feels ashamed of what quote.
- 29:29Speaker 2: Happened to her. It's like ooh, a trip that happened
- 29:32Speaker 2: to me. No, it didn't happen to her. Someone physically
- 29:38Speaker 2: assaulted her, beat her to a pulp, and would lock
- 29:41Speaker 2: her in the closet, which is a new to us.
- 29:44Speaker 1: That's something I didn't know would lock her in a closet.
- 29:47Speaker 2: Now, look again, that's a trial lawyer, but that means
- 29:50Speaker 2: something to lock somebody in a closet.
- 29:56Speaker 6: Well, he again, he wanted total control and dominance over her,
- 29:59Speaker 6: So to locker in a closet is to have her
- 30:02Speaker 6: all for himself and also to terrify her and discourage
- 30:05Speaker 6: her from interacting with other people. Nancy, this self blame
- 30:09Speaker 6: that victims do. I think of it as a crisis
- 30:13Speaker 6: of boundaries, meaning the victim knows that something is severely
- 30:18Speaker 6: wrong with the perpetrator. The perpetrator is disregulated, obsessed, self preoccupied,
- 30:25Speaker 6: relating to the victim through power instead of love and affection.
- 30:29Speaker 6: But the victim feels that it's her job to fix it,
- 30:32Speaker 6: and if she can't fix it, then she has failed
- 30:35Speaker 6: in some way. In some ways, these men pull the
- 30:39Speaker 6: women in kind of a mothering role. That becomes the
- 30:42Speaker 6: woman's job to keep the man's world safe and predictable,
- 30:47Speaker 6: to make him okay. So when she can't do it,
- 30:51Speaker 6: when that task breaks down, she then falls into self blame. Also,
- 30:56Speaker 6: there's so much humiliation going on, Nancy, it's almost like
- 30:59Speaker 6: a form of brain where she begins to feel that
- 31:02Speaker 6: she's a failure, because you hear.
- 31:04Speaker 2: What she said to Keith that there were two ojs
- 31:08Speaker 2: when everybody sees in public and the one that she
- 31:11Speaker 2: sees in private. I have seen that in court. Of course,
- 31:16Speaker 2: by the time I get it, it's a domestic homicide.
- 31:20Speaker 1: But no one would ever think this guy was the devil.
- 31:24Speaker 1: The devil when he's alone with the woman at home.
- 31:29Speaker 2: He's so charming and charismatic, some people even think attractive physically.
- 31:34Speaker 1: It could not be more of a dichotomy, you.
- 31:40Speaker 6: Know, Nancy, I thought of sociopathy, right, the personality disorder
- 31:44Speaker 6: of being a sociopath when Keith was talking about this,
- 31:47Speaker 6: because one of the criterias is that the sociopath has
- 31:52Speaker 6: a thin veneer of affability. They're charming, they're outgoing because
- 31:57Speaker 6: of how people really tend to like them. At the
- 32:00Speaker 6: minute they get their feelings hurt or they feel diminished,
- 32:04Speaker 6: minimized in some way, that veneer cracks, and what you
- 32:09Speaker 6: see underneath is a very cold, calculated interior. So he
- 32:15Speaker 6: was calculating, probably for a long long time, how he
- 32:19Speaker 6: was going to put a stop to all of this,
- 32:22Speaker 6: and we know especially.
- 32:23Speaker 1: You get what we're doing tonight, right.
- 32:26Speaker 2: I'm not only talking about your new book Stalked, but
- 32:29Speaker 2: I'm trying to tell and I want you to help
- 32:33Speaker 2: me tell it along with Bethany to other women.
- 32:38Speaker 1: They think nobody's gonna believe me. This is somehow my fault.
- 32:42Speaker 1: I screwed up. I don't want my family to know.
- 32:44Speaker 1: I'm gonna wear a high neck and long sleeves and
- 32:47Speaker 1: long pants. I don't want anybody to see the bruises.
- 32:49Speaker 1: I don't want my children to know. I don't want
- 32:51Speaker 1: to mess up, mess up my family. I don't want
- 32:54Speaker 1: to do that. It's all technical, legal term crap bs.
- 33:00Speaker 1: They will be beaten. It statistically will not get better.
- 33:04Speaker 1: It won't. It will get worse. I don't like being
- 33:07Speaker 1: the harbinger of doom, but.
- 33:09Speaker 2: I know what the statistics tell me, and the woman
- 33:12Speaker 2: will live through it for the rest of her life
- 33:15Speaker 2: if she stays, and even worse, the children will see it,
- 33:20Speaker 2: hear it.
- 33:21Speaker 1: Mommy's a whoreror, mommy's a bitch, and they will grow
- 33:25Speaker 1: up numb to that and think it's okay.
- 33:29Speaker 2: The girl growing up will end up with a man
- 33:32Speaker 2: that beats her Statistically and the boy growing up. He
- 33:35Speaker 2: starts off like a little angel will grow up to
- 33:39Speaker 2: beat someone.
- 33:40Speaker 1: Statistically, this is true. You've got to tell this story, Keith.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Do you hear me?
- 33:49Speaker 4: You hear you? And that's part of the reason I
- 33:51Speaker 4: wrote the book. Over the years, certainly since the advent
- 33:55Speaker 4: of social media, I've been reached out to by numerous
- 33:58Speaker 4: women around the country and some overseas that followed the story,
- 34:03Speaker 4: followed Nicole in my plight and appreciated what I did
- 34:08Speaker 4: to try to defend her and pick up for her.
- 34:10Speaker 4: Made a lot of I've helped a lot of women
- 34:13Speaker 4: out of circumstances where they've come to me and said,
- 34:16Speaker 4: you know, you gave me the strength to get out
- 34:18Speaker 4: of this relationship when I didn't think I had that,
- 34:21Speaker 4: and I'm still friends with some of them to this day.
- 34:23Speaker 4: So I wanted this to be a sort of wake
- 34:26Speaker 4: up call for some women who are going through this
- 34:28Speaker 4: right now as we speak, who may be watching this,
- 34:30Speaker 4: to know that it doesn't change. Guys like that are
- 34:35Speaker 4: going to be like that. They do not change. When
- 34:39Speaker 4: OJ tried his reconciliation with Nicole fifteen months after I
- 34:43Speaker 4: had met her and we had been so close during
- 34:45Speaker 4: that time, he took her away to Mexico. She was
- 34:48Speaker 4: at her parents' house for Easter weekend, I believe it was,
- 34:52Speaker 4: and he knew she would be there, so he showed
- 34:54Speaker 4: up unannounced, uninvited, and tried to convince her he had
- 34:59Speaker 4: been to therap, he had changed, he was a new man,
- 35:02Speaker 4: and he swept her away to Mexico to spend some
- 35:04Speaker 4: time together to try to get her back. She fell
- 35:07Speaker 4: into it, and you know, sadly, all Nick really wanted
- 35:11Speaker 4: was her family. She wanted that family unit together, and
- 35:15Speaker 4: we talked about this many times, and she fell back
- 35:18Speaker 4: into his trap of I've changed, let me show you
- 35:22Speaker 4: how good I can be. And she called me and
- 35:23Speaker 4: we had long talks about it, and she decided she
- 35:26Speaker 4: was going to give it a try. And that's when
- 35:28Speaker 4: our incredible friendship that we had developed came to an
- 35:32Speaker 4: end because he never got over me. And then fast
- 35:36Speaker 4: forward to October that year when the nine to one
- 35:38Speaker 4: one tape occurs. Something else you have to remember is
- 35:42Speaker 4: he did all this in front of the children. He
- 35:45Speaker 4: belittled Nicole over the year and a half about making
- 35:49Speaker 4: love to me with the children in the house. That
- 35:51Speaker 4: was his big thing. Look what you did. The kids
- 35:54Speaker 4: are here, Look what you did. You're trash, You're dirty,
- 35:57Speaker 4: You're filthy. All the things he said to make her
- 36:00Speaker 4: feel that way. But look at the facts. He kicked
- 36:05Speaker 4: in the door and threatened to beat her when the
- 36:07Speaker 4: children were there. He killed her and Ron Goldman when
- 36:11Speaker 4: the children were there and the door was open and
- 36:13Speaker 4: they were sleeping right upstairs. And if they hadn't found
- 36:17Speaker 4: those bodies, the children would have woken up. Tommy was
- 36:22Speaker 4: Keith your father?
- 36:25Speaker 2: And women out there are looking at Nicole Brown, you know,
- 36:29Speaker 2: before she was murdered by Simpson, thinking oh, she's so beautiful,
- 36:33Speaker 2: she's so glamorous, she's so perfect.
- 36:36Speaker 1: She's got this perfect life, this beautiful home, gorgeous.
- 36:39Speaker 2: Home children Simpson, and they think, you know, why can't
- 36:44Speaker 2: I have a life like that?
- 36:46Speaker 1: And the reality is abuse, And that seems to be
- 36:50Speaker 1: sugarcoating it. I mean, downright beatings.
- 36:53Speaker 2: Breaking arms, noses, blood gushing out of your mouth, losing teeth.
- 37:00Speaker 1: That's the reality.
- 37:01Speaker 2: And if it could happen to someone like Nicole Brown,
- 37:05Speaker 2: it can happen to anybody.
- 37:06Speaker 1: Speaking of the other O. J. Simpson, take a lesson
- 37:13Speaker 1: someone over here now three two five.
- 37:15Speaker 4: Britton agree, he's that?
- 37:17Speaker 3: Please?
- 37:17Speaker 4: Okay?
- 37:18Speaker 8: What does okay, Jimpson?
- 37:20Speaker 4: I think you know his record?
- 37:22Speaker 5: Over here?
- 37:23Speaker 3: What is he doing here?
- 37:27Speaker 4: Over?
- 37:29Speaker 1: He's in a white bronc Broke.
- 37:33Speaker 5: Wait a minute.
- 37:34Speaker 6: What's your name?
- 37:36Speaker 4: Okay?
- 37:36Speaker 5: Is either sports Canter or whatever?
- 37:38Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 37:39Speaker 5: Okay, wait a minute?
- 37:41Speaker 4: What is he? Is?
- 37:48Speaker 9: Mister Simpson kissing Denise Brown? Because mister Dtha Brown, it
- 37:52Speaker 9: is mister Lewis. Brown's talking to a friend Rex his
- 38:01Speaker 9: son Justin let me kisses.
- 38:02Speaker 3: After Sydney's dance recital, Nicole, the children, and her family
- 38:06Speaker 3: leaves Simpson behind at the school and go to dinner
- 38:08Speaker 3: with friends at Metzaluna in Brentwood. Nichole's mother accidentally leaves
- 38:12Speaker 3: her glasses behind, and Ron Goldman, a friend of Nicole
- 38:15Speaker 3: who works at the restaurant, volunteers to drop the glasses
- 38:18Speaker 3: off at Nichole's house. Goldman leaves Metsaluna at nine forty
- 38:21Speaker 3: five pm.
- 38:22Speaker 7: Non invited to family dinner at Mezzaluna, Simpson grabs McDonald's
- 38:26Speaker 7: with his house guest, Kayln Cato. The pair returned to
- 38:30Speaker 7: Simpson's home around nine forty pm. Around ten forty pm, Kayln,
- 38:34Speaker 7: here's several thumps outside his room and goes to investigate,
- 38:38Speaker 7: but gets distracted by the limo waiting outside Simpson's gate,
- 38:41Speaker 7: hired to take him for the airport.
- 38:43Speaker 2: Closing arguments by my former co anchor Johnny Cochran's from
- 38:46Speaker 2: our friends at Court TV. And you know what they're
- 38:49Speaker 2: doing right there at Keith's Lumsawitch, author of a brand
- 38:51Speaker 2: new book, stalked Cochrane, brilliant, great trial lawyer. You'd have
- 38:58Speaker 2: a jury eating out his hand. He's portraying Simpson as
- 39:02Speaker 2: being charming and in with the family. That Simpson kissed Denise,
- 39:08Speaker 2: he kissed JUDITHA, he kissed mister Brown, picks up his
- 39:12Speaker 2: son Justin, his son with Nicole and kisses him.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Oh what a great family guy. They all love him.
- 39:21Speaker 2: I know exactly what Johnny Cochrane, god rest Is Soul
- 39:25Speaker 2: is doing.
- 39:25Speaker 1: This guy would never look at him. The whole family
- 39:29Speaker 1: loves him. He wasn't beating Nicole Bs, Yes he was.
- 39:33Speaker 1: That's from Court TV, Keith. That's what Cochrane is doing
- 39:37Speaker 1: right there. He's a puppet master.
- 39:41Speaker 4: Absolutely, But that goes back to what I was saying earlier.
- 39:45Speaker 4: There's two O. J.
- 39:46Speaker 3: Simpsons.
- 39:47Speaker 4: He's in public. There he's around the kids, he's around
- 39:50Speaker 4: the family. So you're gonna see that O. J. Simpson,
- 39:52Speaker 4: You're not going to see the private one. That was
- 39:55Speaker 4: the one who beat Nicole and the one who stalked
- 39:57Speaker 4: us and followed us and made our life possible to
- 40:00Speaker 4: be together and miserable. So it just goes right into
- 40:04Speaker 4: what I was saying about the ches.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Is all of this is happening the night Nicole and
- 40:12Speaker 2: Ron are murdered. There was the piano recitaled, and the
- 40:16Speaker 2: family goes to Messaluna after he's not invited, and his
- 40:19Speaker 2: rage begins to build, and this is where it ends.
- 40:23Speaker 3: Listen a neighbor's seas Nicolls white Akita Cato wandering the
- 40:27Speaker 3: neighborhood alone, barking, agitated, and on closer inspection they notice
- 40:31Speaker 3: he has bloody pause.

- 41:00Speaker 1: Wondering the neighborhood covered in blood.
- 41:04Speaker 2: Nichole's blood, her head practically cut off her body in
- 41:07Speaker 2: the front yard, but no one believes Simpson could have
- 41:13Speaker 2: done it.
- 41:13Speaker 1: We know he hides in the bushes and stalks her home.
- 41:16Speaker 2: He sees Ron Goldman. He thinks, Oh, they're the whores
- 41:21Speaker 2: with another man. I'm sure that's what he was thinking.
- 41:25Speaker 2: Nothing could have been further from the truth, so Lapd
- 41:29Speaker 2: heads to Simpson's home.
- 41:34Speaker 7: Detectives, Furman, and Fanatter go to simpsons nearby home to
- 41:38Speaker 7: notify him of his wife's death. Furman sees what appears
- 41:41Speaker 7: to be bloodstains on Simpson's Ford Bronco and decides to
- 41:44Speaker 7: jump the fence to gain access to Simpson's property. Fanatter
- 41:48Speaker 7: declares Simpson's home a crime scene and goes to secure
- 41:51Speaker 7: a search warrant for the house around seven am.

- 42:20Speaker 1: guy walk free?
- 42:22Speaker 2: And then there's the NFMUS slow speed chase for Simpson
- 42:27Speaker 2: basically holds himself hostage.
- 42:29Speaker 1: Remember that, because I'll never forget it.
- 42:34Speaker 3: What are you reporting?
- 42:35Speaker 1: One?
- 42:36Speaker 3: I have in the car?
- 42:38Speaker 1: Okay, where are you free? I'm coming up to five freeways.

- 43:24Speaker 2: Callings for your first two initials, and he says he's
- 43:27Speaker 2: going to his mother's.
- 43:29Speaker 1: This guy murder two people?
- 43:32Speaker 2: Why is he even out walking around on bonds holding
- 43:35Speaker 2: himself hostage?
- 43:37Speaker 1: Uh?
- 43:38Speaker 2: No, anybody else they would have police would have overtaken,
- 43:42Speaker 2: gotten them out of that car and put them face
- 43:45Speaker 2: down on the ground.
- 43:46Speaker 1: But no, not Simpson. And it all culminates in this.
- 43:54Speaker 7: Matter people versus Orienthal James Simpson. You plead to count
- 43:59Speaker 7: one and two.
- 44:00Speaker 4: Absolutely what Simson is.
- 44:07Speaker 10: This is oj Simpson's one day in court by your decision,
- 44:15Speaker 10: control of his very life in your hands. Treat you carefully,
- 44:20Speaker 10: treated fairly, be fair, don't be part of this continuing
- 44:25Speaker 10: cover up. Do the right thing, remembering that if it
- 44:29Speaker 10: doesn't fit, you must acquit.
- 44:31Speaker 8: In the matter of the People of the State of
- 44:33Speaker 8: California versus Orenthal James Simpson, Case number b A zero
- 44:37Speaker 8: ninety seven two one one, we the jury and the
- 44:39Speaker 8: ambolved and title action find the defendant or Orenthal James Simpson,
- 44:44Speaker 8: not guilty of a crime of murder in violation of
- 44:46Speaker 8: penal cult Section one eighty seven a A felony upon
- 44:50Speaker 8: Nicole Brown Simpson our.
- 44:51Speaker 1: Forends a Court TV. Were you surprised at the verdict?
- 44:56Speaker 4: Keith, Yes, Now I was concerned that the jury was
- 45:04Speaker 4: going to buy into Johnny Cochrane's both for the lack
- 45:08Speaker 4: of a better word, but I wasn't over it.
- 45:11Speaker 1: You were actually a pall bearer. You carried Nichole's coffin.
- 45:18Speaker 1: What was going through your mind? You knew he murdered her.
- 45:28Speaker 4: This is almost a surreal, out of body experience. You
- 45:31Speaker 4: got to remember the murders took place on a Sunday night,
- 45:34Speaker 4: Monday morning. The funeral was on a Thursday. It was
- 45:38Speaker 4: so lightning speed. I flew out there immediately. The family
- 45:42Speaker 4: asked me if i'd be a ballbearer. I didn't see
- 45:44Speaker 4: them because I flew into Los Angeles the night before.
- 45:48Speaker 4: So the first interaction I had face to face with
- 45:51Speaker 4: the Brown family was as holding the basket at the funeral.
- 45:57Speaker 4: And that's when one of the sisters came up to
- 46:00Speaker 4: me and said, do you realize what we were talking
- 46:02Speaker 4: about that night? And I said, no, I don't, She
- 46:05Speaker 4: said you she was talking about Surprise and Aspen. So
- 46:10Speaker 4: imagine my heartbreak. I hadn't spoken in Nicole for six
- 46:14Speaker 4: months or so, since that infamous nine one one call
- 46:18Speaker 4: where we weren't allowed to speak anymore because of OJ
- 46:22Speaker 4: still loving her, still thinking about her every day. She's dead,
- 46:27Speaker 4: she's gone. I'm holding her casket. I'm standing two feet
- 46:29Speaker 4: away from the guy I know in my heart and
- 46:31Speaker 4: mine murdered her. And I'm told that she was thinking
- 46:35Speaker 4: about me the night she was murdered. I was. I
- 46:38Speaker 4: can't even tell you the emotions that went through me
- 46:40Speaker 4: at that point. So it was crazy. And then as
- 46:45Speaker 4: we went down to the burial site, I actually had
- 46:48Speaker 4: to stand next to oj Simpson almost elbow to elbow
- 46:52Speaker 4: for an hour or whatever time it took to read
- 46:56Speaker 4: the rites of Passage and everything that took place down there,
- 47:00Speaker 4: knowing what had happened, and having to stand next to him.
- 47:04Speaker 4: So just imagine my emotions during that whole thing.
- 47:07Speaker 7: It was.
- 47:08Speaker 4: It's hard to describe. I try to do that in
- 47:09Speaker 4: the book. I do my best job of trying to
- 47:12Speaker 4: walk the reader through exactly what I was feeling in
- 47:15Speaker 4: my emotions. But it was crazy.
- 47:20Speaker 1: Case you never married after all these.
- 47:23Speaker 4: Years, ever married, never had children. I don't know if
- 47:31Speaker 4: that's strictly because of my relationship with Nicole, but I
- 47:34Speaker 4: never got over it. My life turned into a circus, obviously,
- 47:38Speaker 4: with what was going on. It took me years to
- 47:40Speaker 4: get over that, and I always kept a place for
- 47:44Speaker 4: in my heart and I just never could get that
- 47:46Speaker 4: attached to anyone else from that point on. So I'm
- 47:49Speaker 4: pushing sixty five now, I'm still single, and I have
- 47:54Speaker 4: a lot of great memories, but this tragic event shaped
- 47:57Speaker 4: my life, my entire adult or not.
- 48:00Speaker 1: I know exactly how you feel.
- 48:05Speaker 4: I know you do it.
- 48:08Speaker 1: This book is amazing.
- 48:12Speaker 2: I'm so honored that you joined us, Keith, this book
- 48:17Speaker 2: Stalked it could have been me, And there's just so
- 48:22Speaker 2: much more to say beyond what we've talked about tonight,
- 48:26Speaker 2: even beyond.
- 48:27Speaker 1: What's in your book.
- 48:29Speaker 2: Just I'm very grateful for you shining a light on
- 48:34Speaker 2: this plague in our world of women being abused so
- 48:40Speaker 2: horribly and ending up dead and their children destined to
- 48:46Speaker 2: repeat the pattern. Stalked it could have been me. Tonight,
- 48:52Speaker 2: we remember all the women who proceeded and followed Nicole Brown,
- 49:01Speaker 2: victims to domestic violence. Not just them, but they're children
- 49:08Speaker 2: victims as well. And we honor the women that find
- 49:14Speaker 2: the strength to speak out. They are all our American heroes.
