Inside Edition for Tuesday, September 10, 2024

O.J. Simpson, the football great whose murder trial captivated the nation has died of cancer. His family made the announcement today…nearly 30 years from the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. Until then, Simpson had been known as an NFL star, sportscaster and commercial pitchman. Jim Moret has the latest on Simpson’s final days. And although, O.J. Simpson was acquitted of criminal charges in the killings, he was found civilly liable and ordered to pay more than $33 million dollars to the family of Ron Goldman. They received only a pittance of that…it was but one of the many controversies in Simpson’s post-football life. Plus, it's a terrifying situation…a little boy playing little league takes a hit right to the chest, and suffers a heart attack. However, there was a guardian angel right there - his mom who happens to be a nurse. And it was one of the most talked about moments on television: The slow speed police chase of O.J. Simpson in his white Ford Bronco. Well, we know what happened to it.   To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

It was a terrifying medical emergency midair when the pilot of a small private plane suddenly slumps over the controls. His passenger, the only other person board, radios the tower and incredibly he is able to safely land the plane.

The rules are clear – don’t let anyone ride in a trailer being pulled by a car, and this tragedy happened as one family journeyed to see the eclipse. As Jim Moret reports, a pediatrician was thrown out the door of their Airstream as it was travelling down a road. And it was the critical thing that everyone reporting on the eclipse stressed – “don’t look directly at the sun!” As expected, not everyone heeded the warning. Plus, The University of Connecticut’s men’s basketball team won its second consecutive national title last night...and no one was happier than, of all people, actor Bill Murray. And a couple in the midst of a contentious child custody battle were shot and killed inside an attorney's office. Now, we've learned the shooter was the woman's former father-in-law who has terminal brain cancer.
