My husband & his friend were actually in LA in June of 1994 & they saw the Bronco Chase live & in person. When the chase was going on, they were driving on one of the overpasses OJ ended up going under. When they were driving on the overpass, they saw all these people stopped on the overpass & they had no idea what was going on. Their curiosity got the better of them & they decided to pull over & stop as well to see what was going on. When they got to where a lot of people were standing & watching, one of the people there told them what was going on. Once my husband heard that, he raced back to the car he & his friend had rented & grabbed his camera & video camera. When he got back to the spot his friend was standing at, he & his friend started taking photos & video. 30 years later & my husband still has the photos & the video of the chase. Also - my husband & his friend had literally *JUST* been driving on that same part of the highway OJ & Al Cowling drove on that day.

@lotstodo 2 месяца назад

The weird thing was that there were two different Broncos. OJ and one and Al had one. When they took OJs apart, they found the dome light pulled out and under the passenger seat. He probably took it out so he wouldn't be seen when he opened the door in the alley.

My name is Cindy and I was born at St John's in Detroit. I lived ob 8 mile and Van Dyke between Van Dyke and Woodward. I moved to Delaware in 1980 when the Lynch Road Chrysler plant was closed. I was going to Lincoln Jr High before moving here. So that tells you I was from the same neighborhood as Marshall Mathers😂 my mom graduated from Cass Tech with Diana Ross. I have the large graduation picture. I will be joining your patron and will send you a picture of it. My mom passed one year ago this past weekend. She told me she knew Diana but they weren't friends. She was ALWAYS a diva, and never came to school without looking perfect. Also she majored in home economics. I LOVE what you do. You handle it with respect. I have a morbid curiosity of death and had always looked into famous deaths which is how I came across your channel. Then found it quite amusing we had the same home town. I also have a baby brother ar forest lawn. (I think that's where he is) Yours is the only one I've even considered being a patron of. Keep up the good work. Thank you for all you do!!!!!

Wasn't Oj on the phone with a detective for most of the chase? That call is online. Also the detective talks about how when he first told Oj that Nicole was dead he never asked how she died or never asked if the kids were ok

@lorrieannhazelwood8516 2 месяца назад

First of all this 'chase' was a joke to say the least. A crawl escort which in my opinion they could of put out the strips to puncture the tires. That homicide had so many flaws when investigating it's pathetic. Pretty sad that Nicole and Ron lost their lives and got not justice. May they be resting in Peace 🙏😔

@Allycat3270 2 месяца назад

Hello Scott. I remembered that Grave Line Tours was featured on TV here in Australia, on a midday variety show (that is no longer). I don't know who the reporter was (maybe John Michael Howson, the Hollywood reporter for the midday show at the time), and what I remembered was that the group that were in the hearse was asked if this was their first ride in an actual hearse and when they replied 'yes', they were answered 'it won't be your last...'. I think that this may have been Grave Line Tours, the show was broadcasted around the eighties or nineties, I don't actually remember, but what I do remember is that I said to my Mum that I want to go on that tour! I love your videos Scott, sending you and Todd Blessings from Australia xxxx

The Simpsons episode with John Waters had a scene where John drove Marge, Lisa, Maggie and Bart around Springfield on a tour. At one point he said "And THERE'S the hardware store where Lupe Velez bought the toilet she drowned in!" The Simpsons all smiled and went "Oooh!" and Marge took a picture. Not sure if that was just a poke at "Hollywood Babylon" or a poke at Grave Line tours. Maybe a little of both.
