O.J’s relationship with the Kardashians
O.J. Simpson and the Kardashians have a significant history, primarily due to O.J. Simpson’s infamous murder trial in 1994-1995.
Robert Kardashian, who was a close friend and lawyer of O.J. Simpson, became a central figure in the trial as a member of Simpson’s defense team. The trial gained immense media attention and was widely publicized.
Robert Kardashian’s ex-wife, Kris Jenner, was a close friend of Nicole Brown Simpson, O.J. Simpson’s ex-wife who was tragically murdered along with her friend Ronald Goldman.

With that said, Twitter called out Caitlyn for her response to O.J’s death mostly because she also killed someone in 2015.
Caitlyn Jenner, formerly known as Bruce Jenner, was involved in a car accident on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, California.
The accident resulted in the death of another driver, Kim Howe.
Jenner’s vehicle, an SUV, rear-ended Howe’s car, causing it to veer into oncoming traffic and collide with another vehicle.
The incident led to investigations and legal proceedings. Initially, there were speculations about possible charges against Jenner, including manslaughter, but ultimately, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office decided not to file criminal charges against her.
Investigators determined that Jenner was not driving recklessly or unlawfully at the time of the accident.
However, Jenner faced civil lawsuits from the family of Kim Howe and other individuals involved in the crash. Some lawsuits were settled out of court, while others were dismissed or withdrawn.
