O.J.’s two youngest children who he shares with Nicole Simpson Brown allegedly visited him before his death on Wednesday.
Simpson, 76, reportedly succumbed to prostate cancer at his Nevada home. Sources told TMZ that Simpson’s four surviving children — including Sydney and Justin — were with him when he died.
In 1995, Simpson was acquitted of murdering Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The pair was found stabbed to death at Simpson Brown’s Los Angeles condo in 1994.

TMZ reported that Simpson raised Sydney and Justin after their mother’s slaying.
Two years after his acquittal, Simpson was ordered to pay a $33 million settlement in a wrongful death suit brought by Goldman’s family. Until his death, Simpson lived in Florida and Nevada — where his NFL pension could not be garnished. Goldman family attorney David Cook told People that Simpson owed $114 million when he died.
Sources also told TMZ that everyone who visited Simpson at his Nevada home in the days leading up to his death was required to sign an NDA. They estimated that 30 to 50 people saw Simpson before he died, and photos were prohibited.
