The O.J. Simpson Conspiracy Theory That Would Change Everything

In 2016, FX network debuted their show about the case, "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story." The true-crime anthology show renewed American interest in the case, along with some theories.

The two-time divorced Simpson was married to Nicole from 1985 to 1992, and they had two children, Sydney and Justin. His previous marriage was to Marguerite Simpson from 1967 to 1979 (via Vogue). They had three children, Arnelle, Jason (pictured above), and Aaren. In a devastating loss, a young Aaren drowned in the family pool in 1979, per CNN, leaving the couple with just two. And one of them is at the heart of a popular theory that points to him as the killer.

The theory is that Simpson's oldest son Jason killed Nicole and Ron, and it became popular when author William Dear wrote a book titled "O.J. Is Innocent and I Can Prove It." The text presented several points that pointed to several reasons to suggest Jason is the killer, citing his mental health issues, his past offenses, affinity for knives, and a lack of an alibi on the day of the murder, per Your Tango. There are even several threads online where people are adamant about the theories and are convinced that Simpson is innocent, and his son is guilty. However, no evidence has been presented to definitively prove the theories.
