Simpson was a controversial figure, to say the least. The former NFL star exploded into pop culture thanks to a murder trial, in which authorities accused Simpson of murdering his ex-wife and her friend. Ultimately, the courts acquitted Simpson of the crime, but the public consciousness had other ideas.
In the minds of many, Simpson got away with murder. While his family mourned him on X, they appeared to be the only ones. They wrote, "On April 10th, our father, Orenthal James Simpson, succumbed to his battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his children and grandchildren. During this time of transition, his family asks that you please respect their wishes for privacy and grace. -The Simpson Family."
They wisely turned off the comments to the post. But that didn't stop others from posting GIFs about OJ. Many people have begun mocking Simpson and his death. There's a particular focus on where he will end up after his death, with many not pointing to heaven.
