How It Really Happened is a documentary television series that delves into the true stories behind some of the most notorious crimes, controversies, and tragedies in modern American history. In season 1 episode 3, titled "The OJ Simpson Case: Other Killer Theories," the series takes a fresh look at one of the most infamous murder trials in U.S. history.

In 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were brutally stabbed to death outside Brown Simpson's home in Brentwood, Los Angeles. Police quickly identified former football star and actor O.J. Simpson as the prime suspect, and a sensationalized trial followed, ultimately resulting in Simpson's acquittal.

However, many people still question Simpson's innocence. In this episode, How It Really Happened explores some of the other theories that have emerged over the years about who may have been responsible for the murders. The episode features interviews with key figures involved in the case, as well as legal experts, journalists, and criminologists.

One theory examined in the episode is that Simpson's own son, Jason, may have committed the murders. Some speculate that Jason was angry about his father's apparent favoritism towards Nicole, or resentful of her relationship with his mother. Others point to possible psychological issues that may have contributed to Jason's violent behavior.

Another theory explored in the episode is that the murders were part of a drug-related conspiracy. Some believe that Ron Goldman was involved in drug trafficking, and was killed as a result of a botched drug deal. Others speculate that Nicole was targeted because of her connection to drug dealers. In either case, some suggest that O.J. Simpson may have been involved in the plot, or that he may have been covering up for someone else.

Yet another theory considered in the episode is that the murders were committed by a hitman hired by a third party. Possible suspects include Nicole's ex-boyfriend, a drug dealer, or even a wealthy businessman who may have had a grudge against O.J. Simpson.

Through expert analysis and in-depth interviews, How It Really Happened seeks to shed new light on the mysteries surrounding the O.J. Simpson case. The episode asks tough questions about the evidence, the witnesses, and the verdict, and challenges viewers to consider alternative scenarios that may provide a different perspective on this shocking crime. Whether you are a longtime follower of the case or simply curious about one of the most riveting legal dramas in American history, "The OJ Simpson Case: Other Killer Theories" is a must-see episode of How It Really Happened.
