A&E and LMN will be airing two O.J. Simpson documentaries on consecutive nights featuring never before released interviews and recordings. The Secret Tapes of the O.J. Case: The Untold Story will air on LMN on Wednesday, September 30, 2015 at 8pm ET/PT followed by O.J. Speaks: The Hidden Tapes on Thursday, October 1st at 9pm ET/PT.
The documentaries will air almost 20 years to the day when the so-called Trial of the Century ended in a not guilty verdict.
Both documentaries are executive produced by Laura Fleury, Peter Tarshis, Stephen Auerbach, Chuck Braverman, and Lawrence Schiller. Schiller was a friend of a member of Simpson’s legal team/inner circle, Robert Kardashian, and his access to the case provides the documentaries with a unique look into the civil and criminal trials.
Details on the O.J. Simpson Documentaries, Courtesy of A&E:
The LMN special, The Secret Tapes of the O.J. Case: The Untold Story, reveals new insights into both the events surrounding the verdict of the criminal trial, and the various disturbing facets of O.J.’s personality, through never before heard statements by O.J. himself. The documentary exposes disturbing realities about O.J.’s thoughts, feelings and behavior before, during and after the trial.
And, for the first time in 20 years, an audio recording that O.J. secretly taped, prior to the infamous Bronco Chase, is heard. The special features rare interviews with key players on both sides of the case, including extensive, candid discussions with Robert Kardashian and Kris Kardashian Jenner.
The A&E special, O.J. Speaks: The Hidden Tapes, provides unique access to the civil trial, which found O.J. responsible for the wrongful deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. Viewers gain exclusive access to the plaintiffs’ deposition tapes from the civil trial – which were locked away and buried in a storage warehouse for nearly 20 years. Executive producers, Stephen Auerbach and Chuck Braverman, worked closely with Fred Goldman to obtain the revealing and insightful deposition tapes. Family members, including Fred, and members of the civil trial legal team, including Daniel Petrocelli, are interviewed exclusively for the special.
