The first two-parts of the documentary details Nicole’s childhood, her close bond with family and goes in-depth about her relationship with Simpson, which started when she was just 18 years old. But it also explores Simpson’s first marriage to Marguerite Simpson, and features an appearance from her sister, Veterdata Jones. O.J.’s former neighbor and a retired Los Angeles police officer who claims O.J. physical abused his first wife also appear in the documentary. However, the documentary notes that Marguerite has publicly denied any domestic abuse by Simpson.

Outlining a pattern of domestic violence that began early in the relationship with Nicole, the documentary shares never-before-heard details and stories from her family, close friends and a witness who recalls seeing Simpson slap her while on the beach with family. The Life & Murder of Nicole Brown Simpson also revisits the gruesome, double murders, Simpson’s infamous white Bronco chase, the murder trial and his subsequent acquittal. Despite being acquitted of both murders, the former NFL player was found liable in a civil lawsuit and served nine years in prison on charges of armed robbery, kidnapping for a separate incident. Simpson was released from prison in 2021 and died from cancer in April.
