When O.J. Simpson was acquitted for Nicole Brown Simpson’s murder, Faye Resnick had an understandably emotional response about her best friend. She chillingly shared on “Extra” in 1995, “Nicole was right. She said he would murder me and get away with it.” Resnick expressed her anger towards the jury and their inconsideration towards O.J.’s victims. Sobbing, Resnick added, “And I just wish we could’ve protected her. And nobody helped her.”

It’s not surprising that Resnick had such a raw reaction surrounding the outcome of O.J.’s trial. After all, her best friend was violently murdered, and the man she felt responsible for it was walking free. In 1997, Resnick reflected on her bond with Nicole, saying, “I had never met a woman that was just so loving and just such a great friend,” per “Entertainment Tonight.” But Resnick had her concerns about the behavior of her friend’s ex. In “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story,” Connie Britton, who portrayed Resnick, stated that O.J. would hide in the bushes to watch Nicole have sexual intercourse with various men. Resnick confirmed that this claim was true, revealing, “We used to check the bushes all the time to see if O.J. was out there.”
