[0:14] When Nicole Brown Simpson got sick the
[0:17] week of May 15th, 1994, she had
[0:20] pneumonia. OJ Simpson was the one took
[0:24] her soup and tried to nurse her back.
[0:27] Yesterday, he was depicted as an
[0:29] obsessed stalker.
[0:31] >> This man gives $5,000 every year to the
[0:34] Angel City Links, an inner city black
